Speaking of tires..... are these trenchers the actual tire I need lol I was thinking @lostand i had the same.truck so was going to swap these out for the backflips HIS truck needs
But my truck needs these
Trenchers right?

The tekno site says
Trencher 2.8" Tires w/Raid 6x30 Wheels
This set is 2.2/3.0 raid 6x30

Yeah so zooming in you did get the sct tires, so they should for your truck

These are what I got

I didn’t realize they had trencher sct line

Those 2.2/3.0" tires/wheels are what you want for a normal SCT platform.

Thanks bro I needednto hear that

That would be great. On 4000kv though I would only run it on 2s anyways. I know some people that run their scts on 4s and those are monsters.

My buddy has a 410.3 SCT with a 10bl120 SD pairs with a 3652 SD motor.

Kinda sad that they don't make 2 pole 550 size motors anymore. Anything that size is 4 pole.

Whats the difference in poles? I'm gonna go read a lot about it but the short n stinky of ot in a nutshell?

So... did it (finally) arrive in good shape?

The USPS kept it a couple extras days, and you never know.... :doh:

I got it in today!!!
Bro this tong is amazing I cannot wait till I get the power in it tomorrow!!!
@9x19 preinstalled the center chasis brace for me even!!
i installed the servo
and the tires
put the reciever insidev
on schedule for tomorrow
Putting the hobbywing in it then setting servo and I'll be blasting this thing across the yard!!!
Fricking awesome truck!
Thr shocks are so big!
I won't be able.to really run it untill I get a battery for her too I have a few but not really up to par for this platform
@Greywolf74 is helping me pick out the battery

This thing is so well built brother
Is absolutely no way I could have done this fone a job
Changing my sons middle name to 9x19

Wanna trade??

Just kidding
Have fun!
 
Love the zebra!
Stick with the 2.2/3.0 sct tires, unless you want to chop up a body. If you decide to run the bug body you can use some 2.8” tires. You got a good score there, the 2.0 looks really well built.
 
I had my servo in wrong
The wire was in bad way so I put it in THE CORRECT way and it's much cleaner and much less scary.
I just realized I didn't get the pinion gear when I got the motor
Ordered it today but honestly I thibk if the motor shows up today I'll just drive the 3 hours to the hobby shop and buy, one then 3 hours back
I dunno
Since I'll be running it on 3s I got a 16t hardened steel pinion

This thing is huge!
My wife said damn baby that's the biggest so far
I like how she said so far.......
O! Also ordering 2 batteries later today
Oof still gonna be a few days till I get to drive her

Nice truck man! Now if you got those loafers from the movie and painted them with the zebra striping... Well hell, I think I'm gonna start a clothing line for the driver's stand!
Something along the lines of Rodney Dangerfield's "Tall and Fat" stores line up perhaps.

At the corner of the battery box, there is another wire retainer to keep your servo/esc wires away from the center diff drive cup.

In your first pic above you have the wire routed around the outside of that retainer, and real close to that drive cup. Just need to remove the little button-head screw and the retainer will come off like the one in the center.

I see that. Shouldn't that retainer also be rotated or anything? Never built one, so just guessing based on the shape of the retainer and that corner where the wire is supposed to be going.

@majin - like this I think.

Yes, installing your own choice of electronics onto a kit's chassis can pause the build for moment... or many moments. Picking out the best orientation for wires, connectors, and switches always slows me down when I don't have any references to go by. I'm not 100% sure if I'll keep things the way they currently are, but my OCD with the center driveshaft and positioning of my ESC's receiver wires lead me to breaking out Dr. Emel. Many ways to accomplish things, but some ESCs/motors/chassis pose unique circumstances to overcome.

Whip out that manual...

No, the retainer is in the correct orientation in his pic, it has a curved end that matches the outside curve of the battery tray. The curve points toward the front. Your red line is the correct routing, the wire passes between the battery tray and the stud the retainer attaches to.

In a nutshell:
2 pole: faster, less torque
4 pole: slower, more torque

2 pole motors are good for onroad application where high speed is more important than torque. 4 pole is better suited for off road.

4 pole motors tend to be smoother at low speeds too compared to 2 pole.

I would grab a selection of pinions since gearing is something you'll have to dial in to your preferences. If 16T doesn't overheat the electronics then its not that big of a deal. worse case scenario you're just loosing some top end speed on it but if it does cause things to overheat youll need to have the ability to put a smaller pinion on it. Food for thought.

i got the 2 they had available at the hobby shop thats funny, i said the same thing to the guy, "ill take em bothy, i guarantee ill end up using em"
i went with the 16 because the manual suggested that pinion with my kv rating, i dont know any better but once i get used to this truck ill totally check out the differences
