Amazingly enough, nothing fried (except axle bearings). It sucks having to clean everything up!

Dollarhide · 04-23-2006, 11:17 AM

Loved that Vid

ctcballer26 · 04-23-2006, 01:46 PM

That song is by Moby and it is called Flower.

Wild trial · 04-23-2006, 02:37 PM

Thanks for all the compliments guys.

Yes the song was Moby-Flower

The glitching was interference from my radio. Only problem other than that was I lost reverse. That was cause my TQ3 got soaked during the pouring rain. I let it dry out and everything is fine. Now I just have to clean the truck up

The 4runner is really not that high, but it will come down some. The main problem was that my left rear shock had lost all the fluid in it and became very soft. So it made teh suspension all screwed up. Plus my 4link came loose and allowed the rearend to walk all over. We took a lunch break and I fixed everything and it did alot better the rest of the day. That was the first actual time that truck has seen any type of runtime and now things will be changed around for the better and finishing off the tube work

I am really thinking of adding a 2nd motor and unlocking the 2nd gear in the maxx trans

Next video I want to see 5-10' tall rooster tails

Thanks again for all the compliments guys. Still trying to get the hang of my new camera and video software.

Sweeet vid, both the Jeep and 4runner look great, watching the 4runner makes me wanna pull my shelf Queen kyosho Pathfinder off the shelf. What chassis, axles and shocks are on the 4runner and are the tires a direct fit on the stock wheels ?

TwistedCreations · 04-23-2006, 05:32 PM

Toyota 4-runner

Like everyone else the winching was my favorite part. Nothing can beat the yota rolling down the hill over and over.

Great vid TC. That was alot of fun to watch, I just love the scale trail-riding thing.

BENDER · 05-01-2006, 10:03 PM

Cool video TC!! I need to get my scale tow rig finished.

TwistedCreations · 05-02-2006, 05:04 AM

Thanks guys...

Bigred- the total height is only 10" w/ 3" of center ground clearance. The 4runner body is just so big, it makes it look tall

mudrinner4ever · 05-02-2006, 07:57 PM

well i think u got the message that that was AWSOME! the Wangler looked so scale! i liked the rele wide tires on it! cant wait till mine is finished, but my e-maxx and savage is taking a lot of $ cuz im in a club that goes and breaks stuff all the time! sweat vid though!

trevorcfvfd · 05-03-2006, 01:32 PM

Ofcourse I loved the video like everyone else, but I need to give props to who ever put in the Sublime song. Sublime and scale rc, doesn't get much better than that!!!

bhamripper · 05-03-2006, 07:39 PM

Great Vid! Do you have any specs on the Jeep? Is there a build thread that i missed? Also where is that jeep body from? The 4 runner looks sweet.

1BadJeepBruiser · 05-04-2006, 12:52 PM

DUUUUUUDE I just saw this and the video kicksASS!!! You shoulda told me about this

The 4 runner looks awesome and that jeep is cool too. Where did you mount the servo for the winch? In the stock steering servo location? thats where I was going to put mine if I ever get around to doing it

O BTW I got my maxx trans now I just gotta get the plate

Great Video and I loved all the winching!

Mike

TwistedCreations · 05-04-2006, 01:21 PM

I thought you done seen it Mike.. The plate should be there very shortly

As for the winch location, I put it in the spot where the shifting servo goes( the back hole. Then the plastic uprights that are holding that top plate down, act as the fairleads also. Only thing I really did was put some black tape over the front shock crossmember.. didn't want the line rubbing it

My SR sits up on top where the steering servo went. Had to get it as high as possible. Plus the front inside fenders help keep the crap off of it

I still need to finish the tubework, BUT, the body has been fawkin beat to death.. This body is so damn brittle, it is not funny.. I have the whole body almost completely shoe-goo'd... My son dropped it on the carpet one day and it cracked

so i may just finish off the rear bumper and call it good. use this one as my beater.. then make my 2nd 4runner real sweet

1BadJeepBruiser · 05-04-2006, 01:50 PM

Yea thats where I have my JR esc mounted on top where the servo would have went, I too have my inner fenderweels in. It looks better to with them and definitely keeps **** from getting in there. I really gotta get cracking on install the news trans this way I can build up the interior and then get the winch in it.
