  • I've been running the Protrac suspension kit on my Slash 2WD truck and have some thoughts on how it works and how to get the most out of it. Here's my review!
    Parts used:
    Pro-line: 6082-00
    It's kind of long, so grab your beverage of choice, sit down, relax, and enjoy the video.
    Addendum: I highly recommend you dremel some clearance on the bottom of the front arms, else the wheels will hit when they are turned at full lock and the arms are compressed. Here's a pic of what I did:

    Question, what did you do to tune the shocks? What springs are those and what oil did you use? I can’t find that at all in this build series. I’m hoping you respond. I see this is a 5 year old video.

    What’s up my brotha! I’m going over these videos I remembered u did a while ago,cus I’m doing a 2wd slash upgrade for the track, I’m unsure of a couple things n need ur advise. I was gonna get new arms for the truck n was deciding between an aluminum like integy or hot racing or do u recommend staying away from aluminum n going with plastic like rpm? I already bought the new wheels n tires n they r for the 2wd slash so they have the offset, if I get rpm will I still be able to run the new tires with the stock offset? Also I have two brushless systems one I was gonna use is a 3800 or 3900kv or I have a 4900kv which would be best for a track set up on the 2wd slash? Thanks brotha,lmk please

      For steering and rear wheel stubs go aluminum for anything else go rpm. Get the rpm rear number with mud flaps

    Question on the wheels. I have bought the rear arms and been running them for now. I am about to order the front arms and want to make sure I get the right wheels. The stock slash rear wheels go on the front after you use the longer arms on the front?

    Does the protrac suspension kit lower the 2wd slash and also I've been wondering what shocks should I use with the kit

      no, it just widens it.

    What springs did you use in the front shocks and what weight oil?

    Is it possible to run a longer shock in front to add more droop? This is one of the few things that bother me about the Slash. Great video! I learned alot about my own set up.

    How much tire rub do u get on the stock body in the rear with thr wider rear arms. If they do rub is there a body that would allow proper shock travel with hit wheel wells

    • @JFlyer1973
      @JFlyer1973 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      What about just trimming the body if they do rub. I’m doing these upgrades too and until I get another body the stock body will just get a little trim.

    Trying to figure out how changing shock towers links and a arms could take near even 2 hours

    Doesn't the LCG chassis bottom out or scrape bottom more?

    I just added the RPM offset fix front A-arms so now I can run equal offset wheel sets.

      Zed orda what are the rpm offset arms ?

      @kennethlindahl9206 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      did the same to my Rustler this fall. The rpm widening kit is wide front arms , front wheels all the way around and a few other parts depending on which model you are putting on I put dirt hawgs on the front and dirt hawg II s on the back but now I want badlands all the way around
