For those of us who have the vehicles, the time and patience these wrenching videos are awesome because we can work with you in our upgrading. Yes, let us have more of these and even videos on setting up scale rigs.
Great video love how in depth you are on installing products and upgrading your vehicles, i just got an Axial Bomber and picked up a set of the Curie axles. Using your video as a guide was the easiest installation ever. KEEP UP THE GREAT VIDEOS!!!!!!!
Was definitely worth a look two years later. Thanks.
Nice! Thanks for stopping by!
love the upgrading/wrenching with rich! Good job keep it up
Hey Rich, I love the longer videos! I would really like to see you do a live build sort of like Harley Designs does on his channel. I like the interaction and discussion that happens. That feeling of hanging out building RC is really cool.
l like the calm approach you have towards the built . Your videos on reviews are one of the best on the net and the built like this it very use full towards new RC guys who are hooked into the hobby but maybe find it confusing to approach a built . Thank you .
Wow, thanks Stanley - it's always great to hear feedback on the videos, especially good feedback! Always, glad to help out
I really dig these long videos. I'd like to see more day in the life videos like you've done before. Like getting ready for a day at the track and what it takes to get ready and how you get set up.
Rich, you do an awesome job at showing what's possible modifying these kits, please continue doing so, you really sparked a new motivation in me to customize these kits!
Thanks Tom! I appreciate the nice comments
Those Ford 9in axles are gorgeous. Never messed around with rock racers or trail crawlers but this build as inspired me to build a bomber.
Thanks for stopping by!
I enjoy all of your videos the kit builds and upgrades are very useful
I like the step by step instructional videos I think it makes the more difficult build easier
Swwwwwweeeeeet !! I love this video, i really enjoy the actual wrenching, great job.
RICH, You must do a lot of wrenching to keep up with your video subjects. I love these wrenching with .....vids. I play them while I am wrenching on my RC cars. It´s like having a buddy in the room with me. How nice!
love the long build videos rich! especially when i want to work on mine but am at work. they help satisfy my build desires when im unable to do it at the time. love the whole bomber series! im going to be picking myself one up so i can have fun upgrading an getting out when im unable to make it to the track! oh ya ive been dying to see a running video i want to see how this baby drives! keep up the great work rich we all look forward to it!
Thanks Chris! I like these types of videos too, when wrenching. Watch this video for a couple of shots: th-cam.com/video/xQRIZb9RX7M/w-d-xo.html
I need to see you hand tighten 15 screws, lol. Love this kinda video and don't mind the length. Thumbs up as always!!
I think you videos are awesome. i like to see building videos like that. All combonent detail and how they fit together. nice job. keep on what you are doing.
A huge plus is you showing the tools needed. To anyone new, when you look at the cost of better tools the price may run you off. Don't let it. Good tools make this hobby much more enjoyable. The best $59 I ever spent was for my set of 4 Losi drivers.
great job always love watching your videos. thank you
you are the first one who I can watch for the whole things! 53 minutes of it! well done.
Luc Pedneault thanks for watching! And appreciate the great comment! 😃👍
The soldering iron thing.
I think thats a great idea.
Good thinking sir
Awsome video new to the Rc cars and i really like the explenations and details you are giving! Keep it up Rich!
Thanks David! Glad to help
The Axial Bomber is next on my list of vehicles to add to my fleet. I'll keep this video in mind when its time to upgrade!
Excellent video...the bomber willbe my next build and I will certainly look into Vanquish parts .. or SSD ;)
i like the stuff you do pretty much all around. the longer wrench vids are cool. this one was helpfull because oddly enough, the bomber is going to be my next build, and i plan to use f9's. i love the rockjocks because they're just so damn pretty, but the f9's have the updated spool bearing retainers, and the larger pin
ion bearing. i say keep it up, but keep mixing it up. above all else keep it fun for yourself.
I'm starting to get into the rock racing stuff coming from 1/8 scale nitro racing and wanted to do u4rc racing and some trail riding as some rock climbing. im looking at the Bomber, the yeti and the losi rock ray what would be the best set up for my needs. Thanks again
KEEP DOING THE VIDS LIKE THIS GREAT JOB
great video! I really enjoyed it.
Rich, it would be awesome to have an episode of your current TRX4 build up done like this Wrenching w/ Rich episode!
Well, I already got it built.....but word on the street is that a new TRX4 KIT is coming out....which will air on a Wrenching w/Rich episode. Stay tuned!
@@TheRCNetwork staying tuned. 😎
Thanks for making the video great information on upgrades. I just bought a lightly used one but definitely would like to do this upgrade. Although I'm kinda knew to the r/c stuff if you have sometime could you please drop new links for these parts.
Thanks for watching! Pretty much anything Wraith will work axle wise....rear trailing arms are Yeti and the links are Bomber
Just keep it like you are I like it's perfect we'll get some of that it was pretty technical that does help that have somebody is good as you showing us so we don't have to guess ourselves thank you and keep being you
Hi Rich. Great build series on the Bomber. FYI the "C clip" pliers you have are actually called snap ring pliers. They are available several different ways. Including a replaceable tips version. Most auto parts and hardware stores carry them. Very handy to have as you know.
Thanks for your efforts and for taking the time to provide all of your videos. Looking forward to more!
Thanks 70RS!
great video Rich👍. 24H livestream😴 Then i have to try not to fall a sleep because of the time difference 😂😂😂
I loved this video as is. Great work.
Thanks 6Wheel
Rich, I'd like to see you wrench on the ProRally... possibly things to upgrade/improve it for stock running.
I realize this video is four years old but I really enjoyed watching the entire build!! I’ve been looking for a set of these axels for an all-metal bomber build I’ve been planning but unfortunately these are no longer available. I’m even looking for a used set if I could find them. Great video!!
Yeah, AR60 sized axles are hard to find now......I wish I wouldn't have gotten rid of this one.....
Yo, rich great 👍🏼 video love these upgrade build vids so relaxing. I got a quick question how do I stop my 1/10 yeti from donkey kicking? I'm running powerstroke rears for yeti 20w. The rig is pretty heavy due to a sidewinder 8th in it. Thanks man.
I'm running a heavy Yeti.....stock XT powerstokes in the rear with 20wt oil...fronts are (rear slash sized) powerstrokes with the heaviest springs (both initial and secondary springs) running 45wt
Right on thanks man.
I have scte it pulls hard in the front . I want more grip in the back how do I even out the traction pull with the diff oil what do u recommend
I have a question im having a hard time finding out what the problem of my axial bomber because when you spin the from tire forward and the back tire will also spin backward instead of in the same direction and i couldn't find out how to fixed back..thank you so much RCnetwork all your videos are awesome and informative for those people just started on this hobby like me..
You'll need to flip on of the locked diffs - either front or rear was put in backward - check the owners manual for orientation
yes we need a scaler ultra4 podcast. please.
Lol bust out that iron for the locktite that will show em :) love it
Man if your ever in the Charlotte area would like to buy you a beer and hangout! Rc is awesome
Thanks Charlie! Best comment of the month! And if I hit Charlotte, I will be hitting you up!
i need to find a place that sales those hex bit's your using in this video , so i can have some for my cordless screw driver. and get my axial worked on , and do some maintenance to the stampede 4x4.

Man I wish I could afford those axle housings for my bomber! They look sick👍
They're awesome just looking at them!
Try using cheap clear nail polish instead of locktight I got some for $1 and I use it on everything for rc and it works great
This video will definitely help me when I get my axial bomber and eventually get the f9 axles. I think you should keep making videos like this especially for people who are new to crawling. What size shocks do you use on the bomber from proline?
Thanks for stopping by! Shocks - I was using 4 of the Slash rear Pro-Line powerstrokes
love ur music almost start dancing lol .. little long.. did u order ur vanquish straight from them or did u buy it off a place like amain?
The parts tray looks really handy.
It is, I use it all the time
Vanquish is expensive but quality is on point! I had to pick up a set of the kmc xd rockstars in 2.2 for my scx10
Yep, buy once.
Love the videos and it's always good to have a sharp knife yes I to am a knife and axes and swords geek to nothing wrong with that lol
most likely its permatex with me and my family in to racing drags for years all we ever use and the gel is a newer one
That differential "cup", we call that a pumpkin in the full-size world. Toyota and several other manufacturers use the same set-up.
Gotcha, tongue twisted a bit during filming!
@@TheRCNetwork No worries. We all learn things here and there!
Currie made their name building Ford 9" differentials. The removable 3rd member design of the 9" that contains the diff is arguably the best design there is. I would guess the "F9" is short for Ford 9".
Yep, these are those
Where are you able to find these axels?? Is Vanquish no longer offering these?
Vanquish still makes them....but they're not in high demand like they once were. Everything has went to 1.9 now, or the SCX10 sized axles. I got these direct from VP back then
this is off topic but can anyone tell me the inside diameter of the team associated springs for there fancy race shocks?
Bradley Kistner 16.3mm on their 12mm big bore V2 shocks
The RCNetwork thanks Rich.
How does this compare to your Tekno U4 build as far as performance?
It doesn't. The only thing the bomber can do is slow crawl better than the DB48.
sound great to me like it is
awesome thanks have same rig!!!!
Nice! Thanks for watching!
nice!!!
Is there a part to protect the servo horn from front impact?
There's servo armor out there. Vanquish made one back in the day as well as reef's now. It's not really needed anymore with the power of servos today and that they have all aluminum cases / ears available
@@TheRCNetwork yea, but there’s no protection for servo arm against rocks...it bends or breaks horn with moderate hits from rocks(I live in desert).
Thanks for responding always thumbs up👍🏽
Hey rich, just wondering if you are going to release the giveaway in a vid or just email 🙏 thankyou , and great video as always
what do you think of the team durango dex8t?
i had the dex8 buggy. The only complaint (and the reason I sold it) is the center diff mount. If you decide to go with the dex8t, buy a metal spur gear.
Don't mind the length cause I'm learning alot. Thanks!
Glad to help! Thanks for watching!
may I ask where you got your bolts bin?
They're from Home Depot
The RCNetwork thank you
Black MIP drivers ??? Sweet
Chris Webb yep, the last two years, MIP released limited edition black handled drivers. I only use mine at home
What grease do you use for differentials?
Any type of diff grease or moly grease. Cow RC sells "Udder Butter"
Yes I have heard a lot about CowRC (especially with RCSparks) But I live in France you know a site that wind their product in € ?
Kévin Blaise you don't need anything special to lubricate the ring and pinion. Find "moly grease" had a hardware or auto parts store....that will work too
Ok thanks :)
"The theme of this truck is everything black, all murdered out" - buys blue c-hubs and knuckles
I had to play off of the blue stripe on the hood...otherwise, everything is black!
How do i lock my diffs
In which vehicle? The Bomber's come locked
your music makes me think my cpu crashing for a milisecond
Yeah, copyright free music is garbage....
if was called a vanquish fan boy....I'd take that as a compliment
Honey ham!
That cup is called a third member
Yep, good catch
The RCNetwork You are really on top of it. Most youtubers don't check back on the comments of there older videos.!!😆😆 thanks man u da best
Is this the one that you ran at the race today? Btw I was there thats how I know lol.
TheKingAllRed yep...didn't do too well in Comp....had totally the wrong shock set up. Great race though.
I had a totally wrong shock setup in 1.9 trail. I almost got 3rd on the main, but I flipped on the hill on the last lap and no one turned me over.. But I did pretty good for my first race with it, also got third In of the heats in 2.2 indy. I think I did pretty good for my second time at a u4rc event. Hope to see you at the next one
Yeah, I'm planning on more races....I have a laundry list of changes I want to make.....See you in Apple Valley
The RCNetwork See you there
Can we do this w/poor?? Because dang
Ubgrade the Defender 😀
First comment
Damn well over 400$ not worth it to me
Yeah, it's a lot
Pls no 24 hour live streams
