We need some cape crawlers swag. Maybe some 24th/18th decals.

[@CapeCrawlers]

Coming VERY soon

[@sonicusa]

Man, that things insane. Would love to see a update on the cliffhanger comp build with the ROP, ever get that hitch smoothed out?

[@CapeCrawlers]

I've got an update coming for that one. The motor is better but not perfect yet

[@sonicusa]

@@CapeCrawlers awesome!

[@Matt-it8jh]

Betty body is awesome, but yeah definitely deadbolt body. And yeah c10 front end deadbolt rears, absolutely the way to go. That extra length big gains alone.

[@christopherpaluck737]

I'm a 59 year old addict. I'm addicted to Cape Crawlers videos. ;)

[@CapeCrawlers]

Haha! I will continue to be your enabler

[@TrevorParkJones]

Snaggletooth has come a long way! Nice build Adam!

[@CapeCrawlers]

Sure has! Thank you!

[@andrewrichey7374]

Love the paint job looks awesome, beautiful rig for sure. Yep I was here watching

[@CapeCrawlers]

Thanks for watching!

[@uti_s1471]

I like the Deadbolt body because it resembles the real full body crawlers more. I really like your videos, I'm a noob in rc world but already got a SCX24 Deadbolt and gray C10. I would love a really detailed series on this Snaggletooth 2.0 build over maybe some episodes. For example like what parts to get, how to match them together, how to assemble etc. Other then that keep up your good work. This is my go-to mini crawler/ SCX24 channel. Cheers dude

[@CapeCrawlers]

Thanks for watching, I appreciate that! The build videos seem to be very popular. I would be happy to do a short series breakdown of the trucks. And I also agree with you about the bodies.

[@jamesmcnamara7484]

Snagle tooth is what got me into micro rc crawlers, and rc in general. Last r s I had were team associated RC10, and a grasshopper.

[@CapeCrawlers]

Thats awesome!

[@Game4Hours]

Wow! 😮😍👍👍 That RC rig is sick love it I think I'll get a new body for my Scx24 Deadbolt

[@jeremyofthejungle]

A custom painted deadbolt body would be pretty cool

[@BigMountainCustoms]

I agree...😂😂 but of course I would 🤷🏽🤷🏽

[@CornholioMcGeeRC]

Great detailed content man!!

[@CapeCrawlers]

Thanks for watching!

[@HONDAJEFF05]

IT LOOKS SO GOOD

[@VS666]

Great little build looks very capable got to get me one of those python Pro

[@DarkDanegan]

Not sure if you’ve ever done a step-by-step build-along video but I think that would be awesome. As a noob, it would be helpful to follow along in detail for the first upgrades of each component to learn the process!

[@CapeCrawlers]

I did a 10 part series on my SCX24 bronco build. That may be what you're looking for. It's by far my most detailed build series!

[@DarkDanegan]

@@CapeCrawlers Ah - awesome - yes that’s a lot closer to what i was thinking. I probably even need to work out how to fit parts, I am a 100% noob, so even need to learn how to swap the parts, but I’m sure I’ll figure that out when I get the truck and parts. Having the step by step upgrade series is really cool though - it’ll help a lot!

[@greggrube2948]

Awesome truck brother. I think you should build a chassis around snaggletooth, just a thought? Great video Adam 👍

[@CapeCrawlers]

That's a good idea and I just so happen to have a special somthin from Mazz designs on my bench...

[@isaacmitchell-nd3wp]

Sweet build

[@BigMountainCustoms]

Yeah Adam, I run Nick's Carbon Fiber Ugly AF Chassis on all my builds and Swamp King tires are my favorite. I wish they'd make 1.9 or 2.2 Swamp Kings for my Vanquish Phoenix Straight Axle......hands down, Swamp Kings ROCK!! Anyway....nice build. I especially like the paint job....😂

[@CapeCrawlers]

I wonder if they'll get into bigger scales eventually. I've got a good painter ;)

[@BigMountainCustoms]

@Cape Crawlers lol... I need to check him out....maybe he can do something wild for me

[@DavidBurns22]

Two questions for you Adam: What is the motor mount used? The one originally sold on MofoRC with the SMP appears to be forward facing… Also, what is your comparison between the SMP and the ROP, which is better and why? Maybe that could be a whole video on its own actually! As always, thanks for the great content per usual.

[@CapeCrawlers]

Hey David, I used the Mofo mount but turned my skid plate around so its rear facing. The ROP is double the KV rating, making is significantly faster. But in doing so, it sacrifices the low speed smoothness of the SMP (although it's close).

[@BigMountainCustoms]

Personally, I prefer the ROP but that's mainly because I under drive my axles...and yes, you gotta run metal driveshafts. Mine was cannibalizing driveshafts like crazy until I went to metal driveshafts but be careful....my entire drive train on my JLU is 100% bomb proof metal components with the brass transmission.

[@JamesMcNamara-j1g]

Snaggle tooth is iconic! Keep it original body if possible.

[@chenchonglee532]

Hi! I have upgraded my SCX24 C10 chassis to Mofo Ugly AF chassis. I hope you can share with me how you install your magnetic body clip on your Mofo Ugly AF chassis. Thank you 😊

[@edvert1996]

Miss the old Deadbolt body!

[@R-EVLMNKY]

This is badass! 🔥

[@gbresaleking]

Why do guys remove the springs from the shocks? I have big bore oil filled shocks on my cr18p t hunter souped up mod but didnt know if I should take the springs off like alot of guys i see

[@stevekeiron30]

That's an awesome build! My 1:10 build is 4WS, Would that tx/receiver give me the same options? Looks easier to select what option you want rather than just 1 option at a time

[@CapeCrawlers]

With the avatar you can jump between four modes of steering pretty swiftly. It still toggling through a short menu, but it's easy to do.

[@Gibsonlife573]

Doesn't mofro sell them separately where you can buy them in a a pair so like two seats in rear in the front and then the deadbolt rear in the back😊😊

[@CapeCrawlers]

Yes, good point!

[@darkcloud4368]

Power wagon body for sure. Wish somebody would make a modern Power Wagon body so I could build a scale version of my 1:1

[@CapeCrawlers]

My buddy has a newer power wagon. Beautiful truck!

[@RETR0_V0ID]

Does the stock deadbolt body fit on the C 10? I have a modified C 10, but I really like the look of the deadbolt body. I am wondering if it would be possible for me to buy a deadbolt body on its own and then attach it to the frame of the C 10.

[@CapeCrawlers]

I think it would, I would have to line them up to verify though.

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Yo Adam, question about your Budget M Bronco: Does your tires rub on the fenders? If so, what hex parts do you use to fix that?

[@CapeCrawlers]

They rub slightly. I have the deep dish wheels with the negative offset, stock hexes. I use the shock location and preload adjustment to reduce the rubbing

[@RCCrawlerz209]

@@CapeCrawlers will have to try that. Thanks.

[@The_RC_Family]

How much money would someone have to spend to recreate a rig like that all in?

[@CapeCrawlers]

Including the rig itself, ~$800 probably

[@The_RC_Family]

@@CapeCrawlers Wow, thanks for the reply. It looks killer!

[@Cha1101cha]

Wooow its so nice 👍 😊

[@Demarce-wc1fi]

What's your total weight? And when is too much weight too much. My deadbolt is just a little over a lb.

[@CapeCrawlers]

Just under 600g. I think 400-500 is the sweet spot in my experience. But I also think it's less about total weight and more about how it's distributed (assuming you've got adequate power for the weight)

[@RETR0_V0ID]

Do you think you can make a KZbin short to see if the deadbolt body can fit on the C 10?

[@CapeCrawlers]

I can do that, or if you want to email me I’ll send you pictures and info directly

[@RETR0_V0ID]

Where do I contact your email?

[@4reelfishing635]

My favorite truck has a similar setup mofo ugly chassis 4ws smp motor i usually run it on 3s its a great build

[@CapeCrawlers]

Love the Mofo products. He does a great job

[@4reelfishing635]

@CapeCrawlers I run a smp in my orange injora buggy also. I agree he's top notch as far as parts and customer service

[@ForestryTrunkRoad]

How do like these portals vs the mofos

[@CapeCrawlers]

Snaggletooth did not get along with the Mofo portals. I kept snapping dogbones like crazy. Interestingly, after I put the portals on the Warthog they work perfect! So to answer your question, I prefer the Mofo RC portal design because its cleaner and is less prone to hang ups on the portals. But the RCAWD units look great and seem to function really well on this build.

[@seniorxj2931]

I think you need to rename it now that you changed the body!

[@CapeCrawlers]

I love the look of it, so I think you're right. Rust bucket maybe? lol

[@seniorxj2931]

@@CapeCrawlers naah the paint job is too nice for that, how about Broken Axle, or Axle after ur son!
