![]() □ So maybe i can use this axle on the highrock but id loose my steel axle ![]() Going to build the front solid axle to check out the adjustable caster and from the looks of it this IFS kit might fit on the ftx highrock depending on if the diffs fit, from what i recall size wise they are the same the only difference being the tooth count. The steering is really tight maybe on par with the trx4? I have some 2.2 bighorns that might work but sticking with the 1.9 size there is 2mm of thread left after the nut with the stock hubs (6mm steel) and some alloy rims, so max i can probably go is 8mm before having to a widener and barrel nut, tired axial hubs with 5mm offset and there wasnt enough thread left for the nut.Ĭan live with not going full lock, the lurching is noticeable but controllable through reasonable driving. 13mm is to wide imo for 1.9 wheels and looks silly. I have tried 13mm wideners and 5.85' tires and they rub on the body. Great information cheers! Looking forward to seeing your build. This way the truck is something completely different to a solid axle crawler and even more so with the trailing arm at the back. I'd be I'm looking at putting in the Independent Front Suspension kit, deep dish wheels with taller 1.9 or small 2.2 wide tires and maybe some drooped shocks to give it some more flex and lower cg. I'm not so keen on the truck as stock because for me its just another solid axle truck drive train wise and im not looking for another one of those I'm looking for something a bit different and this seems to be a flexible platform to work on if other enduro components fit is the biggest selling point for me to get a truck i would like to drive. Personally The stock truck whilst cool looking doesn't seem all that capable, it looks to narrow, tall and weight balance is off, to much bumper overhang. What other bodies fit, could you run a pickup body if you wanted to ditch the cage? Looking at the Element RC Ifs Conversion Kit it should mount to this chassis as the frame and drive train are the same as the other Enduros, can any one confirm this is the case?įrom the looks of the truck in videos it looks quite tall and top heavy, what are peoples real experience with the truck, any recommended mods, id prefer to run full size hard case lipos. So hows the element stealth transmission, does it hold up well, with no slipper? I look at the plastic transmission and small tooth size as a weakness and would prefer a 32 pitch. How do these hold up under brushless, seeing all the reviews use brushless but no word on component failures naturally. This truck has my interest due to trailing arm suspension, roll cage style body with lots of wheel clearance and what would appear to be support for other enduro chassis components. Couldnt find any threads or posts about this truck, so thought id start one as some one on the fence about picking one up, and if so what the truck was like to drive and work on.
