I tried stuffing a set of Pit Bull foams in my Canyon Trail tires. Unfortunately, Pit Bull sent me 4.75's instead of 4.5's for the front so I was out of luck. I couldn't get the SSD wheels I bought to mount with the new foams installed. Basically, it was an epic fail all around!

I got the Bomber interior painted and installed into my Sport body. These interiors fit really well in most truck bodies. I have used them in all of my trucks.

I flipped my bumper mounts to get some extra clearance on the approach and departure. One outing and they had already been pretty well banged up.

Topher Builds · 04-24-2019, 01:34 PM

That looks really good b-mow!

Great paint work too.

durok · 04-24-2019, 04:26 PM

Damn, B-MOW71...

You knocked that interior outta the park!

Best painted Bomber interior I have ever seen.

Almost makes me want to send you mine and some cash - but I just can't abide dealing with an interior on my Bomber.

dr frankenstyle · 04-24-2019, 07:14 PM

Gotta agree with everyone, GREAT WORK Brian!! That interior really sets off that Sport's awesome paint job!

Truck's lookin' even better now that it has a few scratches.

Thanks guys! I appreciate it. I think Traxxas needs to design an interior something like this for the Sport body. It fits really good in there and completes the look of the body.

Browneye · 04-25-2019, 08:20 AM

I need an interior like that for my version of the sport - the Proline 66 FJ40. It needs to be more traditional though, as my Bomber version, while not used in my Bomber, is a little too 'racy' for the vintage 'yota. Anybody got any suggestions? Maybe try Proline's interior? I've not seen what that looks like, but I see they just introduced a racer one like the Bomber's.

olydemon · 04-28-2019, 01:52 AM

This isn't exactly what I did "TO" my TRX-4, but "FOR" my TRX-4....

I made a new stand since the old RC stand I had from the racing days didn't work to keep the wheels up off the table. I made this from scrap steel I had laying around my shop. Fit it so it locks into the bumper.

neilus · 04-29-2019, 05:58 AM

I made a spare tire carrier:

B-MOW71 · 04-29-2019, 06:23 AM

I got the Sport put back together. I re-greased the trans and axles and added a servo winch. The Sport and I will be headed to Beat The Creek 2019 in Kentucky, USA next weekend. Looking forward to having a blast!

My TRX 4 Sport with some modifications

mass-hole · 04-29-2019, 12:56 PM

took my truck for a drive. I went to this spot called Dutch Hollow where i used to mountain bike about 3.5 years ago. For some reason i remember it being a really rocky, technical climb on the Mt bike, but i must have just been out of shape(and just moved from sea level to 6500’) because it was smooth single track. Needless to say, i didnt get on too many rocks but the views were nice:

Cacti were the biggest obstacle:

Exiwolfman · 04-29-2019, 09:03 PM

Installed light buckets in the rear today to add with the front so lights done , also new rims showed up ... loving the silver wheels .

Finished the body:

JC3 · 04-30-2019, 05:30 AM

Did a shock overhaul. Cleaned everything, modified the spacers for more freeplay, lubed xrings, went with lighter 17 oil down from 30, and am trying softer rear springs (running whites all around.)

I like it looking good so far this is the roll bar on my TRX sport. It's hard plastic but it will work for now.
