Now I gotta guess on gear ratio for a happy medium. Low gear on the Bronco is a little too slow for all around trail use, but second gear is way too fast. The Sport Kit seems to start with gearing that would be a happy medium, but there are lots of reports that it's too fast. Decisions, decisions... |

Re: TRX4 Sport kit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNWDmqMQCJI according to this test. stock speeds 2s = 5mph 3s = 7mph |
Re: TRX4 Sport kit Been searching around....looks like I may get one of these if/when they become available again. Appears Traxxas has them but the dealers don't? EDIT: Looks like I'm a day late and a dollar short. LOL |

Re: TRX4 Sport kit Just posted in the other thread... RC Superstore had one...ordered it. :) I think I'm going to go long WB and get the Proline FJ body. That one caught my eye. Actually, the sport body with the rack and scale accessory stuff isn't half bad. I have a NIB 66 Chevy body too. Oh, the plethora of choices!!! ;-) |

Re: TRX4 Sport kit I have a NIB HW1080 and all sorts of wheels too. Just need a 550 motor I guess. I have a couple of extra 35T 540 motors, maybe I'll try that for awhile. Just need another receiver for the spektrum 5ch. Any must-have hop-up parts too look at? Are peeps weighting the axles and such? I haven't been paying attention to the TRX4 stuff cuz I didn't think I would get one...but it seems to make more sense than the GEN8. My crawling buddy ordered one...he's gonna be surprised I got the TRX - he already has a Defender, but it's a heavy beast so we only see it for trails and haven't been doing much of that. The rock crawling comp thing is super addictive. |
Re: TRX4 Sport kit Quote:
I really like the SSD portal weights on my Bronco. They won't be going on my Sport at first because I want to test stock performance. OD/UD gears from Traxxas are a good option for crawling as well. |

Re: TRX4 Sport kit Quote:
x2 On the SSD portals. Great bang for the buck. I like to do more technical crawling than trailing with my trx4 so I have both the OD and UD gears. There’s a lot of options for adding weight to these axles. Really depends on how heavy you want your rig to be. I’ll end up getting the narrow fenders for the sport, so I can mount the battery up front. |
Re: TRX4 Sport kit I’m thinking of picking one of these up once back in stock. I’m a fan of the inner fenders for mess control. Has anyone added those on a sport rtr or this kit after putting it together? If so was it a pain? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Part no TRA8080 |
Re: TRX4 Sport kit Hi Pant Danza - I'd like to get inner fenders, too but I saw a youtube vid where the guy said that the 8080 narrow fenders didn't fit the sport body. And someone commented on the vid that the Model# 8072 inner fenders fit better. Now I'm confused as to which type is best for the sport body. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YqKJqtbxow |
Re: TRX4 Sport kit Quote:
Those narrow fenders weren’t designed specifically for the sport body like the the 8072 fenders were for the bronco. They are just an option to help fit better under bodies that aren’t as wide as the bronco because basically any other body on the bronco chassis required trimming of the inner fenders. If you want more coverage like he does then TRA8072 is probably the way to go, just expect a little trimming. |
Re: TRX4 Sport kit CATH3018 is no longer active for amain orders. I had decided to pull the trigger even on backorder and get one ordered up cause at 250 I couldn't say no. Fate has kept me from being a trx4 owner for the meantime at least. At 287 shipped from a small store in Columbus, OH, I can stand to wait. |
Re: TRX4 Sport kit Mine was $301 with tax. Damn taxes!!! LOL Let the optional parts sourcing begin... :) |
