Hello Chris, regarding changing the steering parts, you had to remove the pins from the upper arms and the board came out with the red piece that holds the pins to the arms, I changed that part with an exb one on the Big Rock 6s and that's how I did it. it seems good for you that you are collaborating with Vitavon
Hey Nita buddy , Ah thanks so much for letting us all know about that wow it fried my mind honestly . Ah yes its great news for the channel that amazing companies like Vitavon are happy for me to work with them on projects like this hey . Thanks for watching again buddy . Stay awesome . Chris :)
Hi Chris great video. Sexy parts and amazing build. Thanks for the shout out really do appreciate it. Now I want to see some videos of you sending it 😊
Hey JP , Thanks so much for the hingepins buddy , really is helpful love cheeky upgrades like this . Yeah the trucks looking awesome dont you think . Stay awesome Brother . Chris :)
@@ChriswithaCrc The truck looks next level and there won’t be much out there as tough and durable as that beast. I have had the pleasure of driving one and I sent it off a ramp and it felt great. Sure there will be some epic videos in the upcoming future.
@@AnthonyBencomo they broke while bashing. Tried some basic Velcro straps from Amazon and those broke instantly. The Garage Life Rc ones are way thicker and I had to make the slots in the chassis bigger to get them in but they hold my 4s Gens Ace Lipo perfectly!
Hey there buddy , yes they sure do , Tyson has offered to send me some for the truck and also my Asuga as well . Ive used some Kevlar straps in the past on a older truck and they sure did a awesome job. Greetings from South wales UK Chris :)
Hey buddy , Yeah i hear you , Many dont like the upgrading parts scenario , I love it , I love the researching , Then tracking down and then wrenching . Not to mention then running a upgraded truck . I built this this way and im giving my current EXB parts ive taken off to a good friend of mine to install to his V5 BLX also to help him along with his build . Stay awesome buddy Chris :)
Right on , I built this this way and im giving my current EXB parts ive taken off to a good friend of mine to install to his V5 BLX also to help him along with his build . Came out awesome though . Cant wait to give it a rip now . Stay awesome Chris :)
Love this car! I think the only necessary uprade is the hubs. The pillow balls do pop out. The rest is just to feed the addiction of constantly upgrading something that doesn't really need it. I would have kept everything red, too. Great video!!
Hey buddy , Yeah i hear you some of the stock parts on this truck are awesome but yes the hub most definitely are a good upgrade , I built this this way and im giving my current EXB parts ive taken off to a good friend of mine to install to his V5 BLX also to help him along with his build . And when Viatvon reached out to do this video it made total sense , I love the contrast between them all mind . Stay awesome buddy Chris :)
The pillow balls buddy connect to the control arms mind , and the hubs allow movement as you know , the issue is the plastic hubs do and will give way and wear out . Chris :)
She sure looks pretty mate, looking forward to seeing it in action. Will it hold up to crash with a c?? Time will tell 😂. Keep the awesome vids coming dude!!
Hey buddy , Yeah your right bud , Sexy AF ! Yeah fingers crossed we can get together soon . As for testing errrrrmmmmm " Warning, videos may include unintentional durability tests" might come in to plan lol Thanks man for the kind words and the awesome Friendship Chris :)
Hi Chris I hope your doing good mate sorry I haven’t been commenting for while I’ve been so busy working so I’m about to tell you that I’m getting a losi Promoto coming today and I’m so excited to get it.
Hey buddy , Thanks for coming back for the videos and no worries at all , Ohhhhhhh Pro Moto now see ive been wanting to try one myself but not sure i have the places to run one . Would love to hear your thoughts on it . enjoy your new RC buddy . Stay awesome Chris :)
Hey buddy , that is an extra hole for larger can sized motors . I’m planning on changing out the motor and esc for a max 6 at some point and a big bore motor to give it that extra kick . Hope this helps Chris 🤙👊🤘💪
@@ChriswithaCrc awesome thanks man, I have the max6 G2 with 1650kv in mine and it honestly rips 🤣 I have most of the vitavon parts too like the hubs all round, hinge pin holders and diff cases all round. So the motor mount will finish it off nicely 😎👍

Hey buddy , Thanks yes your right , later in the video i did explain i noticed that . All sorted now and good eyes for spotting it Stay awesome Chris :)
Hey there buddy , No i ending up putting the stock 13T in for now just waiting on a 15t to come as the speed pinion was 16T and felt that would be pushing it a bit much right now for bashing . Stay awesome Chris :)
i found removing the red ring and washers off the front arms. to keep the drive shaft from popping out of the cups. the driveshafts are to short, and when parts wear out it makes it worse. i did a video of what i found if you were interested in what i do on all my 6S rigs. "Readeracing RC" Have Fun. love the vitavon.
Great tip! Thanks so much for watching and commenting , Yeah sure would love to see this video ill check out your channel buddy . This would help loads put a link here in the comments . Stay awesome Chris :)

Is the 6s v5 version worth buying I've seen many videos with it snapping control arms and shredding differentials I'm not a hard basher I run off road ,grass small jumps no skate parks but I'm afraid of the rc being super fragile how's the durability
Hey buddy the 6s V5 is definitely worth getting and they take a beating thats for sure . if your like me and dont send them to the moon ! your going to have great fun with it . There alot more robust than you think , I have a few friends that use theres day in day out and beat the snot out of them . Hope this helps Chris :)
Yes i know that buddy , but when fitting and adding the spacers that are provided there was to much room between the hub and arms . So added some metal washers . Hope this clears it up buddy . Thanks for watching , Stay awesome Chris :)
If you live in the UK why would you pic Vitavon over Scorched RC ? Scorched hubs and bulkheads are lighter than the Vitavon and I think they actually just plain better. Don’t get me wrong Vitavon definitely makes high end parts, but I think Scorched attention to detail is better. With the added weight no matter what brand you use I would recommend putting the Scorched skid plate or the CRCU version is a great choice to. It does look great tho 👍…
Hey buddy , Right Vitavon reached out to me to make some videos and kindly offered to send me some of these parts so was a no brainer . I built this this way and im giving my current EXB parts ive taken off to a good friend of mine to install to his V5 BLX also to help him along with his build . and its all subjective i love using parts from different brands to make the truck the best i can .

Because it is his EXB and his money buying the parts or having them given to him to promote a product. Why do u care what someone does with their belonging mind ur business if u dont want to watch move on!✌ Great video Chris I'm waiting for my local hobby shop to get the exb rtr in trying to be patient going through them because i will get 15% off the truck😂

So the V2 doesn't have the option to alter the wheelbase like all the earlier K6s The rear hub spacers were there for a reason.
