|  New (old) guy and a TRX Cherokee.
Hey folks, I've been out of the crawler and RC game in general for about a decade. When the trx Blazer came out it sucked me back in. I drove it stock for about 4 days and then decided to make some changes. It's good to be back and glad to see the forum is still up and running!    |

How do you have the body mounted?

Love that rusted faded paint job! Did you achieve it by adding some media like rocks/sand during your layering process then scraping them off or? How do you like the KYX bumper? I was checking those out the other week

Body is mounted using stock body mounts with I piece of aluminum and Velcro. I've got some magnets ordered. Tinytrux, yep. it was a 2 stage rust finish product sprayed down as a base, used coarse ground salt, and some finer salt, sprayed over with the blue and cleaned off after the paint dried. Thanks B mow71! |

Nice looking rig, and wow... that rust finish is awesome! I've never heard of the sand/salt layering method before. I'll have to check into that!

Welcome back, the TRX4 is a nice way to get back into it! Personally, I love the Cherokee XJ body on the TRX4 chassis.  Last edited by Inspector86; 05-07-2019 at 06:21 PM. |
