Too many to list. Ill get some pics up in a day or too. Probably gonna stick with the stock body for a while. Im focusing more on performance than looks right now, then Ill start adding scale accessories. I pulled all electronics, changed gearing, did all the free mods, gonna run a 1500 3s battery, going with ssd beadlocks ottsix tires, lots of brass.... I cannot wait!

Yeah the stock tires are pretty good but these predator compound are something else. When I go to pick my TRX4 up off my dining room table the tires stick.

I actually checked it again the other night. It's 7.02lbs not 7.2lbs. That's with the proline sr5 and back half cage. With the sport body it's 6.6lbs as well.

I have all the same upgrades you do and am running a 3s 2200mah.

Just deleting the battery tray,fake winch, trimming down body posts, sliders and switching the esc to a tekin fxr I shaved almost a third of a pound off the rig!!! That’s pretty substantial.

yep yep, I deleted the battery tray and winch as well. Oh and my rear posts is modified and shortened to fit right in between the rear shocks to line up with the back half cage.

That vertical climb at 0:55 looked impossible, then you just climbed over it like it was nothing
