- I've waited long enough to dive in and upgrade my Element Enduro! I wanted to change up the look and add a cage, change the electronics, and install the hard plastic parts from Element RC.

Fantastic, now I know how that cage goes together!
Scale Builder's Guild damn he still has not liked your comment 📉
Can we buy the upgraded parts? Or do we just wait for Element to send them in the mail?
It’s like a early teaser of the VS4-10 Phoenix Portal!
Loved the look of that card in the back. When I saw it had a 2 piece body, that was my idea. Looks great
REALLY good idea Josh!! The Bumpers are a bit ridiculous... but that "Truggy" Cage really brings or all together for a nice, functional look!! 👍👍

I like to use sticky puddy and stick small tacks to the body posts and I line it up then press down and look for the marks the tacks make and I drill body holes
Awesome improvement. Most definitely getting that half cage. Thanks for sharing.
the cage looks sweet on this, mirrors, new grill, door handles, will liven this truck up.
Looks really good with the cage, thanks for sharing
I might be the only person who loves the look of the stock bumpers
Looks alot better, completely changes the look of that truck. Nice job!
Wow that is sweet Josh !! I like how that looks. Appreciate you sharing.
Great video. I can’t wait to get my hands on an Enduro but I’ll probably wait to get the kit version when it comes out.
Might be my first rc crawler. Looks like a sweet RTR.
Iv been crawling for a few months I wish I would have been able to get this truck for my first one. Don’t care for the gen 8 steering and I don’t care for how quick rc4wd trailfinder axels wear out. This truck is a god send
What a complete difference nice job....
I hope they release a kit version that includes the upgraded plastics. This chassis looks pretty interesting.
Its looking sweet that cage is awesome
Its actually an underdrive for the rear vs overdriving the front.
Just ordered the kit and cant wait. Found a use for that small battery tray after seeing you put the weaker plastic battery tray mount. Can use that for a small 3s for the lights awesome.
Sweet work Josh. I love the look of the truck now ... well, except for that stock front bumper, yeesh!
Nice, I can't wait until I get mine in hand!
Making me want to buy one for sure Josh. Thanks for the very good post, man.
I had a chance to drive one of these recently. Associated really did their homework on this truck. The motor esc combo really does create a smooth run. The steering servo seems to have plenty of power and didn't break in the first ten feet. I'm sure I will have one .
Really liking this truck. Might have to get one
Nice Josh! That vid was super fun to watch. Cant wait for the next one. I honestly laughed out loud the way you threw the back bumper off camera. Your a funny dude.
Wow that thing is awesome 😎
Looks good. I am still impressed with this truck it is the 1st time in several years I've considered buying another crawler
Man that thing is looking sweet!
RTR = Ready to Rebuild...with even more expensive "Tuning Parts". Nice business model :)
Replacing plastic parts with more plastic parts of a different colour !
You listen to Josh? He didn’t need to upgrade, he had it supplied. Associateds business model revolves around quality and customer satisfaction....... this is not AXIAL....
@@PhiddyPford I think it doesnt matter what brand it is. Its the same old story with every RC car.
1. video = review = it is a great car "out of the box".
2. video = first run = and it performs great.
3. (and more) video(s) = upgrades, upgrades, upgrades...
All "Scale News Update"-videos are about (expensive) upgrades...and not only here @ Harley Desings, there are 3-5 (or maybe more) other channels with nearly the same pattern...its getting "boring".
And yes, he get many upgrades supplied...and I think you know why :)
The only interesting/new feature of this RC car is the overdrive...and this is a really cool feature...I like it!
But I want to see more custom (DIY) designs/upgrades, not only (expensive) upgrades.
@@xantrios Not sure where to begin,
1. lets just start by saying we all have jobs to make money. As I'm sure you do. Josh has a job too, to help inform RC'ers about products. Sure if I had someone reviewing my products, I would send him free upgrades to help sell more. Its a really simple business concept.
2. Upgrading your rig is part of the hobby, some people can't figure out "DIY" projects themselves so having Harley Designs or Scale Builders Guild around helps people to come up with cool ways to set up or make their own rigs look. I didn't think of attaching the rear fenders to the cage on mine until today when I finished watching this vid. Thanks Josh!
3. All BS aside, nobody can tell you how to RC, if you want to make your own tube roll cage, there are a bunch or CZcams videos on it, don't just rely on CZcams though. Yes upgrades can get expensive, but so are RTR trucks... Be creative! That's what this hobby is all about!
Just my opinion, take it for what its worth.
Roman Xantrios this is why I wasn't keen on the trx4. Everyone says it's good then recommends expensive mods
Yeah I’ll a little behind 🤷🏼♂️ Nice job as always Harley!
Really thinking of picking one of these up.
Would you do a comparison video of the vs410 powerwagon/element enduro after your done building both?
This trucks looking pretty good.
Nice video!! But complete if upgrade parts link will be in the video description, thanks👍🏻
Awesome job Josh👍
I think I am going to add this to my collection
Looks nice.
One of your best.
It looks so much better with the back half and pinched bed. Nicely done Josh 🤙🏼 I did notice that you managed to lose the indestructible mirrors😉
That looks cool
Thank you!
I'm not a spare tire guy either. I removed the cradle, and cut out the mount for the tire itself. One of my local crawler guys cut out just the center mount portion and used CA to glue a styrene rod in, sanded and painted.
looks alot better with the cage
super sweet bed mod. just need some cool custom bumpers to finish it off
Looks awesome with the cage! You could just 3d print a little tool box/hard case for the spare tyre basket and trim off the mounting holes on the cage- 1:1s tend to have a box or two around the cage/bed area.
Where do you get the servo centering box/programer? I think that would be very handy to have.
Great video! Just a quick question, will that proline cage work on a TRX4 Sport? Thx
I really loved that servo controller you used to set up the steering. What is the make and model would love to check it out. Thanks!
Put some conformal coating on circuit board of receiver ,no receiver box needed👍
Nice build, any thoughts on going even more on the T gears 25 - 55 etc to get even more front over drive? if so what would you recommend? Thanks
Hey! You can cut away that spare tire mount tab and place a piece of styrene tubing and use some star bond adhesive to lock it down, finally paint it black ! To give it a more clean look 👍🏻
They want you to use the force for putting that cage together lol
the cage is a great improvement. I would like to see more inner body bracing for it though.. To prolong the life of that thin lexan. I'm not much for adding on scale details either, but that spare tire mount, might be a good place for a scale radiator. to go along with the pre-runner look.
Awesome
If you placed the BTA link on top of the aluminum high steer arm would that allow you to run more caster without interference?
Nice job josh, looks good that way. Lookin to build my father in law a truck. Goina go with the 2 piece chevy body n try cuttin out for the cage to go inside the bed.
Ya gotta wonder how much more the better plastic costs to use over whatever they used for the released version
Thank you for you knowledge & RC wisdom and techniques U make a good difference for those of us that R not too sure on which direction to go with some of these vehicles. I learn a lot from your post. I would love to pick Ur brain a little bit. Bcz Every video has helped me in one way or another.the other guys help too but I seem to understand your style or technique a lot better.
I appreciate that 😎
Looks good for a pick-up truck
great video josh
By the way, the truck turned out really cool good Job.
Nice
Great idea I will borrow it but I am not sure on the look of bedsides added :)
I think I need one!
You could put a Hi-Jack in the back!
You also should ad an interior!
Nice vid. Where do you find those futaba air receivers?
Looks real good i think.. Fun to see what front bumper you go for!.. Fast work to:) where can i find that servo controller?
Looks good Josh.
Next mod , i'd make velcro body mounts. And take some scale aluminum diamond plate and Shoe-Goo it to the lower door panels. The cracked lexan looks like the cheap stuff that RC4WD use to make their lexan(not hardbody) Mojave bodies....it would crack sitting on the shelf.
Would you trust those plastic gears on Brushless power?
@Josh: why oh why is this thing not called an Associated? I feel it would have made a bigger impact...
Jos Barhorst
It’s actually a great move to keep it away form their race
Gear as it’s completely deferent to their racing department
@@vincelemasurier7464 sorry to dissagree... they even could have called the CR10 since they already have a 1/12th crawler the CR12... The first time I heard about it I though meh... it's fine. But now the upgrades are coming.. it's an Associated. Well... should have been, in my opinion.
hi .this car is better then trx4 sport?very nice upgrade!!thanks
use magnets for the light connection. when you drop the body on the lights will turn on. connect bare wire to each magnet
Good morning that was fun:) quick question about the Ripper will those front headlights handle and radiator fan handle a 4s??
This would have been nice for a budget build with Matt.
Any new updates on mods or upgrades? Is vanquish planning on making any parts?
How does this truck drive the way you have it set up now after the upgrades compared to the TRX4 sport kit you upgraded with Matt?
Does that electric driver have adjustable power? If so what is the model number?
You should use a round tube for the front bumper to keep with the pre-runner look. Those mods changed the entire look of the truck!
Yes I have the front tubular bumper already, just have to wait a little longer.
when you first got your rig did it already come with front headlights installed ?
How’d this compare to the Axial 10.2?
use the vp origin pro front bumper. I used them on my element
Do u have a link for these parts would love to get them ordered.waiting on delivery of truck today
What did you think Harley about the 48p gear if you put brushless motor ? traxxas, Red Cat Gen8 and axial have already 32p gear much better for brushless :)
Dang man that dies look good
I had the same Pro-Line ball end laying around to get to those screws.
It's the only 2.5B I still have around. That thing has to be close to 10 years old!
Harley Designs I bought that Pro-Line set back in 2012. Love it. The 2.0B is ruined, and my 2.5 handle is shot, but I still love the finish on the tools and I refuse to toss them.
Did you go to proline by the fire in Southern California?
How does this compare to a Trx4? I trying to choose between the 2? Can u help me out with choice?
Hey Josh, will the r2106gf receiver work with the futaba 7px? Thx in advance. Keep making awesome videos 👍
Your rear right tire is coming off the rim and get the rc4wd patriot jack for it
Very impressed with the outcome.... Great video. I'm not a fan of the rear cage only look but reusing the bed looks terrific.
If you purchase the Enduro builders kit does it come with the hard plastic pieces or are they still an option?
(Thanks for wearing Dickies!)
It would look cool to run some rotopax on the spare tire mount.
What drill is this? I need a new one and this one looks great.
Reindale Hill dewalt 8v max gyroscopic driver
Print up a tailgate that attaches those floppy back fenders together, that mounts to the back of the cage. Maybe an integrated handle and an italicized Sendéro emblem somewhere on there too. Or even better, an Associendéro emblem 😂
All these harder plastic Pieces Should be sent to everyone for free.They should have been in the kit to begin with.
Cool video man I like the cage looks great I would have left tailgate though. I love the point where you said small victories. Kick ass.! Have you thought of putting the winch out front to run off the servo Mount that they have there and see how well they designed it. Looks like it's going to be great truck I bet it's going to be huge. Some people have commented about aftermarket stuff but. Being that Team Associated. Is the mother company. I don't see how anybody can think that they won't be everything you can think of for this truck very shortly. Anyways you do really high class videos great job.
Can u tell me wear I can get that stuff
Josh, go to the stash, grab an orginal VS4 front bumper.....Looks great, problem solved!
How about a light bar and back red light
Nice truck love it I run a trx4 defender
hello ... nice model ... I wanted to know, what brand and what model are the rims?
They Vanquish Products 1.9 Method 101 V2 in orange.
Does the frame width measure near the scx10? im looking at a custom cage.
Yes the width is very similar.
Question Futaba 2106gs is a air receiver you can use air receiver for surface use?
Yes, I use it in most all of my rigs.
