| SCX10 Hilux Build
Ok so I started this build awhile ago and have been meaning to start a build thread. This started out as a parts truck and upgraded from there. Current specs: 1.9 Axial Beadlocks 1.9 Rock Beast CI Deuce Wilds Fast Eddy Bearings RRP Trans Gears LockedUpRC Slipper Eliminator TheCrawlSpace LED Fairlead RC4WD Warn 9.5cti winch HeyOk 3pos winch controller 4PLS Wertymade front stinger bumper RC4WD Mojave body Waterproofed AE2 HH 27T motor Gearhead RC Shock Relocation Kit Gmade TS-01 shocks Beef tubes front and rear LEDs all around CCBEC set at 7V Team KNK Stainless hardware 2s lipo Metal links all around Krawler Konceptz Scale License Plates Traxxas 2075 Servo List of things still to do/buy: MIP Driveshafts Upgrade to VP Titanium Links VP CMS and Panhard VP Stage 1 Kit Red VP VVDs VP 1.9 Method Wheels Black/Red DinkyRC "Yota" Interior Wraith Seats GCM Racing Front Motor mount and Transfer case RC4WD Snorkle RC4WD Boss Flairs I will try and keep the thread updated as I progress with the build. The body is currently in pieces as Im finally getting around to painting it so I have been busy filling holes and sanding the filler. Hope to get it painted this weekend. Here is what the truck looks like now. The other day I built a tool box to hold my sand ladders, tow rope, and my R2J Kustoms Pullpal and other accessories. After I painted it I put stickers all over it to rep the companies who's products I have/will have on the truck. Last edited by jeepscx10; 07-10-2015 at 09:08 PM. |

I personally think this shock mount design leaves a bunch to be desired. Rather sucks on a 1:1 as well. My son fab'd up his own... but didn't like it at all. The chassis tended to roll over too easily when off angle, as it would articulate excessively out back. I think a cantilever design works better then the GearHead / \ mounting. But my son chose not to go that route even tho' we had it on hand. So we made our own upper mounts instead. Higher rate C springs were required out back to compensate for the the CO's forward canted (progressive) angle. But in our opinion... our method works 100% better then the GearHead design. here's what we did to my son's SCX-10/Mojave... ~ no additional holes were drilled nor any other permanent altercations ~ suggested to my son that we add an additional bed mount farther rearward but he says it hasn't been an issue and he has ignored my suggestion. btw... those are 100mm CO's more pictures | |

OK so i completely forgot about this thread alot has changed in this truck it still has yet to be painted and i just ordered new electronics for it as I took the electronics from this and threw them in my FJ Cruiser build. The new electronics will be a CC MMP, Novak Ballistic Crawler 18.5T, CC BEC, and a Hitec 5645MG servo. Will do a full update when the new stuff arrives in the next few days.

Been awhile since I updated this thread. But it now has 1.9 VP Methods and I did the narrow XR mod and I'm thinking about getting some RB XLs for it instead and I'm going to either buy a bed that has already been bobbed or just bob this one haven't decided yet but I need to do something to fix the rear as the bed is stopping me from pulling some lines I know the rig can pull and I finally got around to painting the body as well, went with satin white Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
