Full size truck is different. The axles on a full size truck is a lot more complicated, and most have diffs that stop the power from going to one side when a tire lifts. Thanks for your input, and if you disagree with anything I said about this vehicle (not a real full size one)? Please make a video explaining properly then? The vehicle handles way better (way less tendency to traction-roll now). The rear end is no longer trying to drive under itself on a slide, and that was the point of installing the 0⁰ hubs. So you can argue with what I said all you want? However if you're comparing the axle of an RC to a full size axle, then what you are saying is coming from way to much knowledge. Plus you can't argue with results, and the results have proven my thoughts & logic correctly. Thanks for the comment though. ,👍

@@rcwreck-creation I'm not saying it didn't make a difference (why would they make the parts otherwise), I'm just saying you're overthinking it. When you're driving hard offroad the tires aren't on the ground half the time. If you're driving in parking lots it's different.

@@RTmadnesstoo you need to watch the whole video. I discuss exactly what you just said. Thanks.

@@RTmadnesstoo .... Plus you are the one trying to compare to a full size axle. So I'm not the one "over thinking" anything. You can't argue with results, and if I got the results I was thinking I was going to get. Then I wasn't overthinking anything.

@@devast8r3436 🤣🤣🤣 I wish I could say that's why it broke! Unfortunately it was my own fault for having the ESC set up with a hard drag-break on. Went through 3 shafts that all broke in the same place for the same reason. Finally figured out the drag-break was engaging, turned it off, and hasn't broken since. I really appreciate the comment though. Made me laugh!

@@rcwreck-creation lol yeah that drag break will get ya every time. Glad ya got it sorted out and in all seriousness that Bigfoot body does look really good

Thanks man. I figured that out too, and show it in another video. Appreciate the comment anyway. 👊😎👍

@@rcwreck-creation no problem! Thanks for the SBR videos!

@@carnivorouslee that's pretty impressive! 👌👍 Thank you for the awesome comment friend. 👊😎

@@joeyroberts3090 sorry to hear that. Not every tire works with every wheel. If you know the brand & name of both rim & tire? Try a search with both (part #s would also be a good search.)? See if many are having the same issue with those exact parts, & maybe someone has a solution? If you don't have brands or part #s? I don't really know what to tell ya boss. I appreciate the comment though.

@@rcwreck-creation id have to look didn't now if u had any tips or tricks And it's only one tire that's doing it

@@joeyroberts3090Sorry, if what I suggested wasn't much of a "tip or trick"? Unfortunately I can't really say much about a specific tire and/or rim that I've had no experience with? My video, is about a specific rim & tire set up. I once again apologize, if there isn't anything useful for you in it as well? Hope you can solve the problem?

@@91rus Thank you for watching

Yup 1734 is the original part number for sleeve and cylinder for the Nitro Star 12R SS. Thanks.

@@rcwreck-creation The one for the Traxxas car? That fits the Clod?

@@melvinjensen978 not straight out of the bag, had to boar out different post holes in the body, swapped & raised (with spacers & washers) the front & back posts on the Clod, but the scale is right on the money! 👌.... Oh! & The body has its own bumper. So the Clods bumper has to come off too.

@@rcwreck-creation Cool Thanks!

@@melvinjensen978 Any time my friend. 👊👍🍻😎

Exactly why I did this video. Regardless of what instructions you follow. It will make a difference either way. More recently, I used this product again on the inside of the lexan before colour, and it did exactly what I was hoping by making certain masked off patterns next to impossible to see in shade but pop out in the sunshine. So just like my conclusion in this video. I'd say depending on what effect your looking for, it's very useful for both inside (before colour), & outside (after paint). Those that still wanna argue with results are always gonna argue anyway. Thanks for the input on what anyone can read, I like testing products for myself, rather than just read what the manufacturer suggests sometimes. It's the only way to get actual results instead of just opinions. Know what I'm sayin?

I use it as well one coat thin before I use my airbrush createx colors. To give it a better Bond besides the 4030 that I need to use. If you use too much in the inside you can get a sort of flat color but it won't be very flat. If you want the Matt look paint your body in the inside then the flat on the outside.

@@driftcraze2138 appreciate the comment. That's pretty much exactly what I found as well.

The upgrades I have are more than "for show" for sure. If you're happy with a stock Clod? Then that's great. 👍 For me, the 27Turn silver cans are way to slow, & the servo on axle steering is way better than the 'zero steering while sitting still-belly mounted single servo stock set up. Owning a Clod is definitely not about having a good driving RC. That's for sure! LOL!!! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment though. 👍

"Zero steering"! Not so bad! More then half throttle,loosing the front steering.

@@bonsaidrunkenmaster390 Sorry, I mean only while sitting still, there's basically zero steering. It's not to bad while moving with a stock set up. I'd say it handles like an 80's monster truck. 😁👌

Hey thanks for the positive comment man. That is not an easy question to answer. Very difficult to find what the stock fluids are, but my source says stock cst values are: •30000cst for front & rear •200000cst for center I have never changed my centre diff oil yet, but I have put 50000cst in the front & rear when Ive serviced them.

Meany thanks I have been having the same problem off finding out I wish losi would put it in the manual so we have a bace line

LOL!!! I have the same kinda luck sometimes? 😅 Didn't show it in the video but there was a bridge to bypass that part of the path like 10ft away from where I shot this. So even if my lipo did decide to quit, was an easy recovery. 👍👌😎 Thanks so much for that great comment Mark. Really made my day bud. 👍👊

@@rcwreck-creation hope to see you put making videos again soon, was wondering how your making out where I haven't seen anything in awhile. Hope all is good my friend

@@WoodsUnknown It's been rough for us bro, not gonna lie. The wife ran into some health issues that weren't covered by gov-health assistance, & it cost us enough to treat her to take us right out of the housing market. I started the channel to document me kinda following my dream of starting an RC park, and I don't think that's gonna happen anymore.... So that's the real reason I haven't really been making videos anymore bro..... Having a hard time with my mental health because of how everything has gone down for us, but we got each other still & our daughter is healthy & safe. So the important things are doing good buddy. 👍😎 Appreciate you for asking my friend.

@@rcwreck-creation man that sucks I wish nothing but the best of luck for you and your family. Don't give up in dreaming brother that's what keeps each of us going. Doing the videos and chatting in the community is what generally keeps ones mental health in check and having this hobby really helps. You ever need to talk or anything give me a shout.

@@WoodsUnknown Thank you my friend. Out of my entire family & friends, your the only person to say something like that to me. Really appreciate it dude. As unattainable & Financially impossible all of my plans are, I'm still hoping for that unforeseen way to make it all happen..... 🤞This is all I got to help make it happen right now though. Trying to be positive about it bud, but it's real hard sometimes. Especially with all the new wars breaking out, and all the crap we're all going through. Makes me feel like my problems are insignificant too... That's life though, isn't it? I truly appreciate the opportunity to say something to someone who wants to hear it. I wish you & your loved family & friends all the very best dude. This door swings both ways bro, so if you ever need to get something out to someone who'll listen, just start typing bud? I can't promise I'll have any answers for you, but I can be a pretty good listener anyways. Cheers bud! 🍻

Sounds like the tire rubber is to thin to be caught in the inner ring? Wish I could help ya better than that man?..

I have screwed up the finish on 1 rim. .I have new set of crawlers to mount. on those new RC4WD I SCREWED UP. 3 DAYS OF SCREWING UP 1 RIM LOL. so I GOT SO PISSED OFF. I went to my hobby store and bought the gen8 purple Scoutt II. and told my wife it was a new RC or I continue with these wheels in the same room as her.. LMAO!! @@rcwreck-creation

@@grumpy1469 😅 Had to be done! 👍😎 The V2 Gen8 is a pretty awesome rig for the cost. Should keep ya cheered up, for a bit, until you see those rims again.... 🤣 Sorry man, thanks so much for sharing your experience with these wheels. I hope you have more success in your next attempt bro?

Thank you for the support 👊 back at ya! Not really making much content these days, but thank you. 🙏😎👍🍻

Personally I’m happy with how well the cooking spray worked. So “would petroleum jelly work better?” I can’t really answer that. I can’t see any reason petroleum jelly wouldn’t work (if used properly). Another thing I’m thinking is: Once the tire is on? The petroleum jelly is going to stay longer while the cooking spray will most likely dissipate & rinse off more quickly? I could also be wrong about that too? So the most honest answer I can give is I’m not very familiar with petroleum jelly. Thanks so much for the good question. I hope the video was enjoyable, & helped you, even to think of an even better way to do it? Thanks again.

Thank you so much for the sweet feedback! 👍👊😎 Really appreciated!

🍻

It’s a really hard thing to measure when it’s already installed, but I can tell you the stock (bumper mount) piece it replaced is 2.81inches (71.5mm) Wide (c-channel to c-channel). The inner c-channel (height) is .45inches (11.6mm) Hope that helps? Thanks so much for watching.

@rcwreck-creation Oh Perfect!! I really appreciate you taking the time to find that out for me. I'm trying to see if it will work for my Vanquish VRD chassis. It looks like it will fit with a little alteration 👍Have a great day !

@@SoCalCrawlers Happy to help. Vanquish Eh?! Nice rig. Hope it all works out for ya. 👊👍👌

Cheers my friends 🍻 had me worried for a second, but yeah, she’s a beast! 🤣👊😎👍

WOW! Thank you so much for that fantastic comment. I really appreciate that! I’ll have to come check out your diving videos. I actually live close to the shore of Lake Ontario, one of the greatest freshwater lakes in the world. 👊🤘👍I’ll be by your channel & getcha right back bud! 🍻

Lake Ontario is number 1 👍@@rcwreck-creation

@@rcwreck-creation anytime bro

You moving away from Ontario? Did you find a new spot.

@@WoodsUnknown Unfortunately my wife had some health problems that aren’t covered by our healthcare and it cost us most of our savings for a down payment on a home. Took us right out of the market…. 😔

@@rcwreck-creation so sorry to hear that Jason

Nice! No one is as excited for you to do that unboxing as Brian! 🤣 Should be a good one! 👌👍😍🥰😘

Thank you so much for watching Zelda.

Thank you Merta. 😁 hope you enjoy?

​@@rcwreck-creationyeah... that car toys collection was really awesome

Nice. You’re not running it on 3s though, right?

Thank you so much for watching my friend. It’s always nice to know when anyone was able to watch the whole video. You rock Dirk! 🍻

There was a point I thought it was going to go sideways (🤣no pun!). Thanks for watching Perry.

Oh yeah brother! Cheers for watching Brian! 🍻
