In reference to your question above about the JST Y cable. That is not a problem. The JST connector coming from the ESC is direct battery power and adds no load to the ESC. If you decide to replace the ESC at a later date you can solder that Y cable in parallel with the battery plug.

Wiring is nice and clean. I can't seem to load videos either, I think my connection is too slow. Your truck is lookin' really good, I like the tire set-up. |

Thanks man, I know they are two different trucks but yours inspired mine a lot. Next is a little weight up front for mine. Thinking of trying the lockeduprc steel parts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

Realized it's been quiet awhile since I posted any updates. Thought I'd throw a pic up. Haven't really done much to it since my last post. Replaced the Hitec servo with a Savox, and that's about it. Just been driving it. Lots more scratches and the grille is broken. Still have alot of plans but it's been holding up and performing great for me. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

Hey T', I think I see "wash me" written on the side in little bitty finger. Looks like you've put some more miles on her, but still looks good. And thanks indybama, I've found that to be easier too. jim Last edited by dr frankenstyle; 05-11-2019 at 01:04 PM. Reason: DOH!! |

That's AWESOME!!! Great father/son time! You'll have to post up some pic's of dad's and son's rigs together. My dad's Revo 2.5R got me back into RCs. And now my buddy's son just got into crawlin' with us. He's an adult, but it's still super cool. Hope you guys wear 'em out together. jim |

Messing around in the garage today, put on some 2.2s longer shocks and lifted up the sliders, bumpers, and body a bit. Not sure how it'll perform but everything can easily be put back to stock height. So it's worth trying out I guess. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

So my stock radio died today. I have a futaba 4pls that I use on a couple differnt rigs. Can someone explain to me how I could use this radio with my trx4? I can't get it to work the way i want. I would like to be able to at least have the front diff always locked in low gear and be able to switch the rear in and off. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

Congrats on the quicrun wp1080! I love mine. Sweet Bronco too, nice to see a truck that's been used well n good. Just was thinking about replacing the stock foams on my Sport and I'll have to look into those Crawler Innovations. A little cheaper than the pro-line dual stage.

There ya go T' ! I'm sure you'll like the 1080. It's so much better than stock, all the way around. Good luck with the radio, I don't know Futaba's so I can't offer much help. I run the TQ's in most all my rigs and love 'em, especially now with the Link features. And tiny' , I'll second the CI foams!! Definitely an improvement! jim |

I bought a servo reverser so I can lock both diffs but that's all I can do. It's either both locked, or both unlocked. I'm going to try to get it to work the way I want but I might just have to get a new tq. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |
