motor esc is allways first when it comes to traxxas trucks, this is gonna be a sick build
That is a purdy truck! Even lifted. 😁
Got myself a brand new trx-4 black blazer for my birthday. Went on my first amazing trail run & immediately realized I had to pick up a beater crawler cause this thing is waaaay too nice lol
Ive been waiting so long to get a lift kit for my trx4 for forever!!!
I personally would add wider wheel hexes for a wider stance. It does look pretty bad ass though! Good job Matt 👌
I feel the the 1.9 proline boggers would look killer and add a good bit of height
A set of aggressive cut Boggers would look great on it!
$378 worth of upgrades, you have to love traxxas prices.
That's nothing so many ppl waste so much more on vacations that are only a memory days later at thousands of dollars, consoles at $550 games at $80, so much and here for $378 u have a badass rig that u can enjoy for many years!
nice build ridding high 👌 👍 👏
I'd keep it as a trail truck. Mudd truck for a day, all good. But in the end an equipped trail truck, maybe a hunting rig.
Just did this yesterday to my 79 Bronco. Lots of fun in the mud and water. Enjoy it Matt!
Big brushless
Gears
Flingkings
Make a bad ass scale bounty hole truck!
👀🔥🔥👀
That body looks great!! I have the 1979 Ford Bronco and left it all black and chrome.
Dude that was exactly what I wanted my mud truck to be out of. Was going to put fling kings on it. My birthday is the 25th and my real name is Matt too! Think already have told you that. Go on and sell it to me when you get done. I'm loving it. Hope my store still has one by my birthday!!
Yeah that is a beautiful Chevy blazer blacks my favorite color, most of my RC’s are black, this is going to be super cool I will be following thank you
Alright....
These traxxas trucks keep getting better.
This build is awesome and looks bad ass.
I think personally needs a brushless system.
Mud trucks have big power.
For sure different and better tires.
Lights for sure.
But.
Needs big power.
Awesome that you showed what it looked like on the 1.9...everyone else just jumps to the successful conclusion, it's nice to see the "why"...
This is going to be a wicked mudd truck, you should compair it to your axial scx10ii 69' K5 Blazer mudd truck when you're finished I have both Blazer's as well the black one will stay stick a tribute to my Dad he had a 1980 black K5 when I was in HS I learned to mudd with it 😉👍
In the process of doing something very similar with the K5! So excited!
This is going to be so cool. Need to make it smoke. Smoke from an over size tail pipe tip. Or a stack in hood that shoots black smoke straight up. Can you imagine the crowds reaction when your pulling through the mud and it just starts rolling coal.
They have real smoke exhaust setups for drift cars. You could easily install one on this rig.
Very well done sir now I want one 👍🏻👍🏻...look really good and mean
Im getting ready to pick mine up at my local hobby shop this week.. so thanks for the ideas for the next level.. I'm definitely doing a light kit.. and I love the lift kit
super swampers would look amazing on it
Very COOL!
Now I want one….😂
Can hardly wait for some running videos!
Looks great love that black k5 body as well. Yes some true mud tires will make it even more aggressive looking. Looking forward to seeing it all done.
I just took my lower shock rod ends off and removed the bump stops. Because if you don't you don't gain any flex. Only ride height. My trx4 blazer body got lowered down 1 body hole as well so now I'm getting more articulation but keeping the height down as much as possible. Plus the light weight springs are awesome. Just tips from recent experience. I bought mine with lift kit already on it.
Really nice looking truck! I would love to see a brushless system go in a that thing to surprise everyone at the mud track👍
I mostly enjoy really tiny e-clips, especially when they go flying into far off hard to reach places. It's my favorite. I'd throw some mud at it then change things.
Looks amazing 🤩
You need a big brushless combo in that. Maybe a 5700 kv and a mamb x. Mud will be flyin.
looks great with that lift kit!!
I agree lights are needed since all the buckets are so nice. I have brass in hand, chrome push bar, proscale lights... waiting on a servo for my first build segment. I think the Long Arm will be stage 2 for me. I'm searching for some beadlock chrome 8 holes to replace these with that same chrome look. Yours already looks like a monster now!
Matt
We do enjoy the Traxxas content on your channel. Particularly builds like this one. My son and I are building a TRX4 Sport kit together. We picked out the Pro Line 1.9 boggers and will try fitting them with out a lift kit. A challenge yes but one we want to try. So your timing with this series is perfect. Love it dude thanks!!!
Yeah looking awesome
I won a TRX4 black edition in a raffle and love it. I have added the rock crawler lights as well as the front and rear lights. I just installed the red interior with driver and passenger. Looks awesome.
Looks awesome 👍
Looking forward to watching this project develop
Looks great!
Truck looks great
Those wheels are money. I'm a fan of the factory cut boggers on the ryft, for tires. I also like mudslingers and fling kings but that k5 needs some super swampers on it. Or maybe somebody should start making old school grounghawgs, they were awesome mud tires. Truck looks great, glad to see you building a mud truck, they are my favorite. Y'all have a badass day 🤘
Rc4wd 2.2 XL Mudslingers. I put them on the bronco, and they are aggressive both in looks and mud.
I just installed my lift kit as well. Actually went with the treal widened stub axles with brass hexes. Needed a little wider stance with my new Jeep body.
That is a really good looking truck man congratulations on the victory
Great show
Boss content. Thanks for making this - awesome!
Traxxas has the best instructions in the business
This will be interesting, cant wait for more
Can’t wait to see what you put in electronically 🍻🇨🇦
Looks great, I just picked one up from my local hobby store. Can’t wait to see what you’re going to do with this. Keep up the good work.
You read my mind. I’m currently working on lifting the one I have and thinking of some changes so I’m interested to see what you come up with. It looks great with the lift kit and the 2.2 tires.
Dude I seriously enjoyed this video! Good stuff buddy!
Damn man that's badass
Thanks for sharing this video 👍👍
Welcome 😊
I did one like this this spring with the 69 black blazer, it turned out great with axial 2.2's and axial rims🤣 I was inspired by your scx2 mud truck build! But I made it more of a snow truck!
I built what I referred to as my personal trail truck but everyone called it a mud truck. It was a black and red TRX4 BRONCO that I changed everything on except the body, the diff locking and 2 speed transmission servos only because no one had made any replacements which is ultimately why I got rid of it but it was badass. Created my own high clearance links into a lift kit, Hot Racing 100 or 110mm internal spring shocks. KYX alloy steel axle housings, Hot Racing brass outer portal housings, Treal Alloy inner housings, Yeah racing brass bumper replacement that allowed me to move the servo out and I thought it would be too much but it handled it perfectly. Tallest tire I could find were the RC4WD 2.2,Monster Mudder tractor tires on some eBay black with red ring 2.2 alloy bead locks that were really nice for everyone who's going to talk shit about them. Hot Racing hardened spring steel axles. 45kg servo, Samix servo horn and Samix brass axle link mounts, Castle Mamba X with a 4600kv castle sensored motor. It had as much power as you needed in low and was fast in high, great COG believe it or not but here's some info for you if you're interested. Probably more than you wanted to know but figured I'd tell you about all of it just in case. Oh yeah I didn't like the plastic driveshafts so I installed Team Raffee I believe driveshafts that worked great
It looked pretty good on those 1.9’s, very 80’s like
ADV Van lifer here, TBH I would love to see something like this with a Ford Transit body! Then it could match our real rig. :)
Just found your channel, always been a racer but lately been slowing it down and enjoying the outdoors more, might have to get a SCX6! You seemed pretty psyched by it.
I installed the lift on my sport. I definitely think if you’re crawling throw the stock shocks in as they are softer. As for mud truck fun stock springs are good
I am exiting to see the next video
Uh oh! Here comes the lift kits!
I’ve never really been a huge fan of them, the Trx4’s already have pretty high CG with those portals and accessories.
But if this is gonna be a diehard mud truck, I’m excited!
If you get the lift kit and set the preload way down it is actually pretty wild what it can do. One of the other Crawler TH-cam Channels had a set up and it would climb right up curbs and stuff. Here is the link:
th-cam.com/video/IYYeajpCig4/w-d-xo.html
@@ColoradoStreaming that’s pretty cool man!
Looks great man, might do it to mine.
Looks good but I think I'll jump the line, buy a LMT roller and the Traxxas Blazer body to build a big scale mud truck 🙃
look sick
Looks great, I did the same thing to the same truck, I got same 2.2s also...they look cool lifted...I use my sport for crawling and the blazer for trail and mud...
Very cool!
I still haven't done the gaming PC rig yet now we're jumping to mud trucks I flipping and love it
I'd move the servo forward about half an inch and install a 3 horsepower(on 6s) 1/8th Puller Pro 4274S. I run one in my TRX4...its been in there for years. It's super smooth AND incredibly powerful. It'll blow through any mud hole(even on 3s). I have nearly every Puller Pro and Revolver...the 4274S is an absolute "controllable" BEAST.
Funny....it still gets great battery mileage.
Did a similar build I went with the big proline boggers 5inch tall tire on 1.9 wheel works really well.
It looks heIIa good...🤘🏼💯✔️
wow great mod for mudding trailing
I'd brass out everything at wheel level in the front. maybe alum axles housings . I'd do a 550 Axe esc and motor
Thanks for the good info~~^^
Now I have to have a mud truck......damn influencers!
I’m also building a trx4 blazer mud truck😂 love the builds, keep on with the great content
Awesome! I am doing a similar build on this black blazer. Looking to do the long arm as well, so interested to see what you think of it. Just love the body color/wheels as well. Great content, keep it up Matt.
-I am also loving the Dewalt driver you are using and recommended in the link. Makes things a breeze now.
Great video I’ve been excited for this since you got the box 6 weeks ago and teased it every Wednesday night
Is that was that was?
I believe so he said he would announce it this week
Great look black body 🤩🤩👍👍👍
Cool should look good on the bronco too. With some mamba x
This body style is my favorite looks great lifted upgrade motor gears everything go muddin merica
It ain't a mud truck unless it's got super swampers.
The truck definitely looks awesome, i love traxxas blazers. It needs some fling kings, the only way to go. Strange installment from SBG though for sure.
I aim to confuse!
I would definitely put overdrive in it it's missing mud tires. Your next truck you do for $50 week upgrades with Josh love to see you guys turn a RC four-wheel-drive TF2 into a Rock bouncer.
Excelante!
I think a sound pack to make it sound like a mud truck would be cool
Like it big time
Love it just the way it is. I have the same truck and the only thing I’ve done is tires and wheels
My next step would be to start cadding stuff for it so it takes even longer until I would be able to drive it, first up would be de new front for those K5 trucks, I like it a lot more than the old one
I put a lift kit in my sport and 2.2 with a momba x and its a class three killer.
Thanks now I have to buy a TRX4 and a lift kit😂😂
Sweet build, I have considered putting my trx4 together as a mud truck so many times, I like the look of the 2.2 fling kings instead of the 2.8. But if I did it I don't think I could resist putting 2.2 renegades on it. May not be aggressive enough for the mud, but I was surprised how far my smt build would go in the rocks with those on it.
Another great, informative, quality video 📹 subscribed for more. Good job RC buddy 👏
Thanks 👍
Always good when a new truck is on the SBG bench to work on! Blazer looks good in "vintage black". I hope you can take this Chevy off-road.
Perhaps you can make trailer for this truck to tow your comp truck. And you have just created a new 2022 season t-shirt, in case you had not
noticed. The muddiest name in the business and instead of the American brand, just add a Maple Leaf with SBG initials. Fun wrench vid✌😁
PS If you go ahead with the design, I would keep it exactly like your 'taped over' effect.
I have said this since the black blazer was released but it always reminds me of Burts blazer from Tremors
Check out some of the mud racing in parts of Florida.You might get some great ideas for scale realism that may help to meet your goal on this build.But it's looking fantastic.
A hobbywing brushless would be pretty cool
Looks great Matt! Just need some big brushless power now ! 💥
Correct you must keep the tread clean to move forward
Brad- does the Velineon system work on these crawlers?. I always wondered how these brushed motors stand up to the moisture
@@philipmazzuca2269 , I have never owned a Velineon system. All of my brushless systems are sensored Castle Mamba X combo’s.
New subscriber.. Big fan, Love the show
Welcome to the channel and thanks for watching!
Dang it man you got me to buy a Traxxis today. My LHS had one of these in black in stock so now they don’t 😏 I plan to follow a similar route over time since I have my SCX 10iii that I built and painted to match my 1:1 scale Jeep
Makes me want to go and get a lift kit
Big like ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Looks dope I made a mistake and I ended up buying me axial wraith spawn and I should have gotten the K5 complete waste of money I have to think about maybe next time picking this one up when it's possible hope you're having a good one will see you later on tonight enjoy
I would like the smaller wheels. Looks more real than with the bigger ones
This is a Mud Truck. It’s supposed to have big tires.
