Custom TRX-4 build

General RC Information

This is my TRX-4 chassis kit I got in June, it’s the pro version with all the goodies like diffs and 3s capabilities. A few people suggested I add it here, so, here it is. I ran it with the stock fenders and no body till about July, then purchased the proline gladiator body. I trimmed the fenders and made it ride as low as possible on the chassis. It ran clear for awhile till I painted it just yesterday. I have an evolution video that shows the major style changes it’s had at my channel @neilanderson4404. I plan to upgrade to metal Beadlocks and some proline shocks. For winter it’ll ride on the traxx from traxxas with a plow on the front. It’s getting an injora bumper sometime and a winch. Let me know with any questions!

Challenges Faced
When building, the rear differential was not properly aligned and wouldn’t free spin. When taking apart, I ran into a stripped screw. Luckily I was able to loosen it enough to properly set it and the diff is fine. When trimming body, it wouldn’t fit properly, so I trimmed the fenders way back and cut the bed out.
