Mine is green and she was built to be a HD tow rig that can still get busy on some rocks. She got aluminum axle housings F&R, brass knuckles & skid plate, SS HC links and steering w/ an eco-827 servo and 39mm oil shocks with medium&firm springs F&R. My PL Super Swampers on Holcomb wheels needed a home. We'll see how long the stock motor can go, .050 motor is waiting. She is a Beast and on my Crawlspace almost every feature doable. Yours ended up pretty sweet. 👍🏻🐐

Good thing you did this with all axial parts , now i know to never buy them, stupid engineering, we can buy every part from everyone and everything works, they can't even make it work with their own wheels, those hex are good in the 1/10 but in the 1/24 what's the point ? Anyway that cage looks great, made the rig look a lot better

to be fair.. just about everybody changes out the wheels to aftermarket wheels.. and while these knuckle weights are labeled for the scx24 and ax24, i think they really made em for the AX

I'm a newb to RC crawlers and it's way more difficult to mod these things then I was expecting. Especially those Phillips screws. Even something simple like reinstalling the front bumper to my FCX18 and losing the screw in the body over and over again and all the shaking in the world won't dislodge the screw from its hiding spot. I have bunch of parts arriving soon and I'm feeling discouraged to install them.

The fcx18 should be mostly 1.5mm hex heads. But yes, these are small and do require some patience. It’s very rewarding when done though.

Tonight I installed drive shafts, steering links, skid plates, and cute little red tow hooks. The front bumper screws ended up being the only real problem. That and the stock wheel nuts are a bit Too $hort and the beadlock bolts on the new brass wheels are in the way. I ordered longer nuts. I also just got some tools from Injora.

IMO lowering the position of the lower shock mount in this way doesn't offer as good of geometry. A shock tower is a better option. I truly enjoy your videos, you're reminding me of things i forgot, and also teaching me new tricks. Excellent! Shared your channel with a friend. He's just getting into RC, and the detail you get into is top level. Maybe get better lighting for those tough spots, but overall you rock man!
@TheShopMiniRC

Thanks a ton, and yes, there are many ways to change the shock mounting. I was trying to show without needing to buy new mounts. I also usually mention that leaning the shocks will give more axle travel/articulation but also makes your shocks less effective. I do need to figure out some lighting that will help from that angle. Thanks a ton for the share.

So the stock wheels suck. The tires are great! The stamped steel wheels will work and clear the hangers. Only catch is the tsl tires are .93 not 1.0 so takes a lil doing to use the tires. You can also get the barrels to extended it and tap a hole for the screw pin if your really wanted
