    BOOM!
    Waffles, that is absolute genius, I love it.
    Great little build 👍
    Loving the videos because you present them so well in such a calm and informative manner. Not like a lot of TH-camrs who present their videos in a falsely enthusiastic and overwrought style, they're like TV adverts, shouty and attention grabbing.
    Keep up the great work 👍

    One of the guys I had auto shop class in high school owned a station wagon on a half ton 4wd truck chassis, and I have seen several El Caminos on blazer frames. So this set up looks good to me.

    Little tip from one cheap truck builder to another: try buying the link sets with plastic rod ends, yeah they wear out but 15 bucks to buy a new set once in a while is negligible, especially once you see how much shake and wobble is eliminated, metal rod ends are a false economy imo, as they make your axles unstable. Keep up the great work dude 👍

    I do this simple way of throwing a crawler together myself on a budget typically brushed is cheaper crawling but the Mercedes is not where I thought this video was going but its great

    Putting "class" into RC is great and I loved it. What you showed made me want to do this as well. I checked your list, and it would seem that I need to change my Country. Amazon seems to be willing to export the gearbox, rims and some other parts but not the tires, or motor and a few other items, so we still seems to be blocked in South Africa. And the delivery & Tax are more than the price of the parts. Exchange rate = $1 to 18.8 Zar. This will remain a dream, Thanks for that.

    Back in the TLT axle days I spent many and hour bending 1/2 inch square tube and wire feed welding chassis & even more time bending & brazing brake lines. Now that I’m older and lazier, I mostly go the route you do in this video. eBay makes it too easy. Awesome vid as usual.

    That is very rad OMG. Great work just offer that people can run 3 gear center mounted trans and have zero servo interference mounting SOA or 3link. Also you don’t but they can oil fill the shock absorbers also.
    This is amazing 🤦‍♂️ I have too many and this is my favorite. Now I kind of want an el-Camino body that I had on a team Losi LST2 back in 07’. Great job dude seriously!!! And it’s brand new!!

    @zaydherrera 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

    That body looks amazing 💯🔥 very useful video for newcomers into the hobby only downside I see is that servo and motor hitting and that’s that you build with long shocks, would be even worse with shorter shocks, I think the traditional 3 gear transmission would be better, another question is how do the aftermarket axles hold up, and can you source replacement parts if they break from bashing

  • @paulallison2095
    @paulallison2095 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

    You need to take them back apart and check the axel shafts at the portal housing. Alot 9f the axel have a washer instead of a bearing on the axel

    Shocks are old-school style, but doesn't increase its capability.. you do you. Because of portals, it's more common to use short 80mm shocks , to lower center of gravity not raise it.

      @WafflesRC-pb4nt  19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I think it was about 500 all in. I know its not cheap by any means, but my justification is not spending 500 on one frome a store, then doing upgrades.
