Wheels look good too

Thanks! I am happy with the wheels forsure.

Thank you for the nice car and the video!

[@rccampingandcrawling]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Nice trial run I just did a bunch of upgrades to mine & it’s now one of my favorite rigs to take out all the gears are metal inside & it has bearings also. I love it.

@@Casitascrawlers thank you! I feel the same way, it's lots of fun and very forgiving! I want to do something with the body though... Still thinking through that part

I love taking mine out for runs! Haven't changed the wheels and tires yet, but I did add a lot of brass to the axles. Your wheels look great!

[@rccampingandcrawling]

Nice! Its super fun to drive! I want to add some brass next, just can't decide where to start. Haha.

@@rccampingandcrawling Front axle first. You have steering links, diff cover, and portal boxes. The rear you have diff cover. I added the brass skid just to get some weight on the springs. It's a very light truck. The Redcat brass is pricey, but heavier than the Injora stuff. I figured I'd save a little with less weight and then add metal driveshafts for durability.

Where did you get that little camper.? It’s awesome.

[@rccampingandcrawling]

@@Casitascrawlers Thank you! The camper is home made! I used wood, mounted some traxxas trailer wheels and tires to it. It's fun to pull around!
