Treal Beadlocks: amzn.to/3ZEva2F. I'd recommend these others though: amzn.to/3JuaqFa. They have an optional wider offset, so likely won't bind on the brass hexes, and they also have way fewer tiny mind-numbing bolts!

The new t hunter has a tray that fits the battery perfectly for relocation
I hope it’ll be easy to convert to the new features!
A very capable Unimog!!! Great mods my Friend!
Thanks 🐼!
@@QuinnsRC 🐼 You're Welcome my Friend 👍🏻 Have a Great Day! Cheers!
Nice work Quinn! I always want to make one of those boards when i see yours but I keep forgetting. Full watch from me, I always look forward to your full length vids!
Thanks Tyler! Those boards are a super easy to make and a way to make mod comparison vids. I keep forgetting to do side-hill measurements when I change wheels/hexes/hubs. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Great video, you have done the body mod I did when the T Hunter first come out , I used two bolts through the roll cage to stiffen the body . With a few mods and upgrades it’s a very good truck . Stay safe mate 🇬🇧
Thanks!
59° is great 🎉
Thanks! I haven’t had a chance to circle around and get 60 yet, but some day!
Maybe a rear link riser (2 cm) give more climbing power.
I have no idea how to make that. How would you do it? I don't have a 3D printer. I have brass portal covers that just arrived today; that'll be my next t-hunter video! Thanks for watching and the suggestion!
@@QuinnsRC My friend make them from old Servo arms. czcams.com/video/7kuR1khhMBA/video.html
Gotta get around to pushing the battery up on my rock van. Only thing I’m worried about is going downhill if likes to tumble forward. Funnily enough.
Ya, I don’t think I’ll move the battery on the rock van right away. Seems like adding some weight only up front might be all that’s needed.
it's a good video👍🎶🤝
Thank you!
@@QuinnsRC 🎶👌
Hey, thanks for the subscription old chap. What are the chances we would be doing similar mods? But... 59 Degrees? I'ma watch the bloody hell out of this video now I have commented and thumbed it! 💓🙏
Well, the rubber band is kind of a cheat. Not practical when off the flipometer. I may trim the springs someday down the line.
@@QuinnsRC You know I just watched a video from @texomarc where he hooks the springs over the shocks to make them compress, it lowers the CG and makes it more stable! ;)
@@The_RC_Family OH ya! I forgot about that. I'll try that before cutting anything.
I did something very similar to my C10. Luckily I don’t require hemostats.
Nice! Hey, welcome to RC Content Creators!
@@QuinnsRC thanks for having me. It’s a relief really. I’m constantly questioning myself if I’m doing right. I usually get a “How should I know” from inside my head.
I have a rock van evo. This video made me open it up. I can fit the battery under the front hood next to a small black box. Is this a good location or would the battery heat be problematic? It may be .25'' higher, but its up front.
Best thing to do is try it. There’s really not much weight in the rear of the rock van. Moving the battery forward and higher might cause it to tip forward when on declines. I wouldn’t worry too much about the heat.
