Sweet ride!
Thanks. I love that thing. I’ve got a plan to ev swap it if the laws start changing. Otherwise I’m gonna keep that old 4.0 chugging for as long as possible. Almost at 325k now.
I've never been into wrenching on the real deal but do enjoy working on my ATVs.
Great looking rig you have and i love the wheels.
Those wheels make the truck! Old school at its finest. And no brake dust!
 
Swapped out the bumper from the TRX to an RPM

Put TREAL brass castor blocks, inner front portal drive housings, Also tough armor steel welded side sliders. I have an Injora front bumper coming to mount my Warn 8274 winch with wireless controller. Sitting at 10lbs. 13.5 oz. right now, will be close to 11½ lbs with bumper and winch, want to add the TREAL 93 gram outer portal drive weights which should push it to 12lbs. with battery.

After tidying up my work bench, I balanced a new set of GRP GTJ slicks. Only one wheel needed a small amount of weight. The Rigid rims (J's) definitely are more balanced out of the box.

Took me a minute but I replaced the Spur Gear that I stripped the heads on and the gear cover I cracked... Took me a minute. I think I got the mesh lined up right.. I tested it briefly on my bench but I am scared to send it. Last time I sent it, I foolishy went full speed on 3S lol... I also adjust the slipper clutch on this too and made sure it wasn't too tight.

Also added a new ESC Fan. I think maybe I should run a motor fan as well at some point.

Fixed my dumborc transmitter spring broke in steering knob. Used a spring from an old transmitter.
Just got my enduro24 and some rims and tires,
Almost got done putting tires on rims, but life calls, I have to go to work. Yay 😂
 
On 1:1 they have hd ones for mud. This summer I just might give it a whirl.
Oh, so you mean like Wednesday? 🤔 you won't be able to wait until summer, you can make fresh mud in your bathtub!
