@MrRiverlord999 Hello, and thank you. We're glad you liked the video. I love this hobby and the community. Thank you for taking the time to watch and leaving a comment.
@rockcrawling43 Hello, and thank you. It's been a while since Big Cheese has been on the trails. The weather has been hot and dry. It's starting to cool off, so it won't be long, and we will get back after it. We just went down to Rochester Dam, but unfortunately, I didn't bring any small rigs. The rocks are just to big. But I thank you for keeping up with us and we'll get some fresh footage asap. Thanks again, and have a good day brother.
That’s a awesome line. This is my favorite. What a outstanding place. Sure appreciate the video. I’m watching from Manchester Michigan. This is so cool.👍👍
@andyrichey1192 hello and thank you for subscribing. Glad you like the videos. We have a ton of water run off from the hills behind us and it makes nice trails to follow. Always changing. I just need to keep them cleaned out.
This was some great maintenance. Sure appreciate you sharing. This is the beauty of this awesome hobby. I’ll catch you on the next one until then. Peace and chicken grease 😁👍👍👋👋😎
I watched the first half of the video on the edge of my seat! New to the RC world, have had a 3s basher about 2 months and now I'm waiting for my first crawler/trail (TRXm defender) to be delivered Monday. You guys are a lot of fun to watch, can't wait to create trail names through the bayous like you. I have the perfect washout creek in mind after watching this video.
@tomlin03 hello and thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It sounds like you're about to have some fun. Washouts are a great place to trail. And always changing. Some of our trails are completely different from when we first drove on them. Like a whole new trail. I love placing names on the challenges and rigs. It give them personality. You're going g to love the Defender. It's not the best rig but certainly the most rewarding when you complete a challenge. Thanks again and have a good day brother.
I like stuffing the ends of the axle housing with grease then I put the bearings on the ends by the inter axle inside and it’s coated with grease all around on both ends yep, helps a lot👍👍
Sorry for delay. W3 went camping. But yes we have been doing some improvements. To dang hot to shoot and more videos yet. But I got a cool one coming this week. Thanks for the visit and commenting.
@joellofquist2537 Hello and thanks for commenting. i would say the original servo in my truck has been abused beyond it capabilities. Big tires heavy wheels and alot of use. It's been through a hard life. I'm not disappointed. More surprised it lasted as long as it did. That rig weighs over 830g.
@ that’s impressive! I picked mine up on launch date and the servo was bad after a week.. I’d have to check I think my rigs is around that weight but that is after the servo failed! I’m running the reefs 55 in it now after finding out the reefs 99 isn’t that waterproof
@joellofquist2537 i got mine on launch also. I ended up with 4 of them. They all have new servos at this point. I'm most impressed with the eco servo. And it's waterproof. I have a reefs 99 but it's the winch version and not installed on anything yet. I didn't know it's not waterproof. Thanks for that bit of knowledge.
@ the reefs 55 is waterproof but a bit less powerfull than the reefs 99.. my reefs 99 did work again after it dried out but I still replaced it I also ended up with 4 rigs myself had to have the hightrail and the standard ones.. I also took one and lowered it all the way down removing the shocks entirely and using the trailer tires as the truck tires making it a slammed pickup truck just for fun
@joellofquist2537 wow! The lowered truck sounds cool. That's a nice idea. I did a drop chassis and a lifted body on my green defender. I love modding my stuff. Fun and rewarding most of the time.
This is a great video. It shows you what the hobby is about!❤

Yeah, that’s the way I do it when the head of the screw touches the case never overtighten that stuff down does not need to be only will nuts👍👍
Right on Terminator that was nice driving👍👍

@@andyrichey1192 me too. They are game changers. Especially for as much weight as we have on the Defenders.
Heck, yeah what a awesome place, I just subscribed 2:01 PM Tuesday, August 6👍👍

@HARRYS_SLOTCARS_N_RC_CRAWLERS you're welcome and thank you for the view and comment. Happy trails brother.

@andyrichey1192 thanks for the tip. A little grease goes a long way.
Very good video my friend!😎 Many cool shots!
Thanks, tevoh. It seemed like this video was fighting me. But finally it came together. Thanks for commenting brother.
What I hate is fishing line I was out one day did not have a pocket knife on me. I carry one now when I’m out tiny trucking.👍👍
You Soup.. that ain't no maintenance, that's a total rebuild 🤭😂👍🇬🇧
@bb4l881 Hey brother. It sure feels like a rebuild. I'm surprised more water doesn't get into the differentials.
Damn y’all have really been workin on home creek course👀
Sorry for delay. W3 went camping. But yes we have been doing some improvements. To dang hot to shoot and more videos yet. But I got a cool one coming this week. Thanks for the visit and commenting.

Heyy Sup
According to traxxas the servo stripped due to “misuse”
