Not sure if I’m in love with the tires but the wheels look daaaamn good on the black bronco. They remind me of the 1/10th “rock tire” you see on Amazon, in other words great wheels but mid tier tires

I changed the tires out recently for LGRP grippers. They fit the chassis much better and allow for full suspension compression. Kept the wheels though!

Could you tell what tires and wheels you recommend the best?

First of all great comparison video of the low and high gear ratio.I installed the low range gears into bronco also because all I’ll be doing with it is slow rock crawling on high grip. Tested it out and all I can say is wow! Huge difference in slow crawl control modulation.Made me a better crawler with this set up.

[@CapeCrawlers]

I think the trx4m is an excellent first crawler. It’s easy to setup, operate, and it has lots of user friendly features like the body clip design and minimalist transmitter. The scx24 is also fantastic. It doesn’t perform as well out of the box, but it is close, and it has HUGE aftermarket support to customize it to your hearts content down the road.

That’s a subjective question. I personally prefer the bronco. The chassis is the same, so performance will be (and is) very similar with the defender being a bit more top heavy due to the more bulky body. The defender body is also a bit longer. I found myself getting the rear bumper hung up on the ground on steep approaches. So I would say choose which one tugs at your heart strings the most. Can’t go wrong either way!

Both were pretty impressive with the transmission change. I have not tried it yet but by putting bearing in the front axle makes them crawl better too.

I have some Treal wheels coming with brass rings I’m going to put them in the front of mine for more front weight bias.

Hey, Adam! Really liking the videos, just got back into the hobby. Something you might find interesting, the crawl gear transmission kit comes with bearings instead of bushings like the stock trans. I discovered that while taking the new transmission apart when intending to just take the gears out and keep the engine unused. Question for you though: How much louder are the crawl gears compared to stock? At high RPMs I feel like my truck sounds like a 2-stroke! Alignment on all of the gears look okay to me and the motor isn't adjustable from what I can see, so I imagine the pinion gear is aligned well. I put a dab of marine grease on the gears too just to see if that made any difference but no change there. Have a good one, man!

only reason i dont watch your vids is because there so freaking bright for no reason

[@CapeCrawlers]

I am sorry about that. I’m trying to sort out my lighting in the current videos I’m working on. I may have to give in and buy an actual camera and stop using my phone to record

@@CapeCrawlers no need, literally just take down the exposure in your editing software. Super easy fix, I love the content BTW!

@@AeneasMacdonaldEdits thanks! Check out my most recent upload, I think I’ve corrected the lighting!

[@AeneasMacdonaldEdits]

@@CapeCrawlers looks good man!

$39.99 for motor transmission combo's

[@CapeCrawlers]

I feel like that went up from when I ordered them. I didn’t spend over $100 for the two combos, the trailer, and the metal gears.
