I sincerely hope all is well with you. 8 months is a long time to be without a video from my favorite rc channel, but that’s just selfish. I really hope you and yours are well, and all is ok.
Thank you very much for reaching out and for your positive thoughts. I greatly appreciate it. I am doing well, but this year, there have been series of events that have taken me away from the hobby. I have been meaning to get back, but it's taking much longer than I had anticipated. I hope to be back shortly...thanks for your patience.
Thanks for posting Sendero SE mod videos. I went with the IERC shock key route and used your other relocation battery tray video to help my build. Happy crawling!
Glad I could help
I moved my rear towers all the way forward and then replaced the the stock Element body post with an Axial body post maintaining the stock holes in the bed. I too removed the “fuel cell” and used an aluminum G Speed chassis brace. Nice work on your mods.
Thanks for sharing! Great tip 👍
Youre videos are awesome! These kind of videos is nice nice nice
Thank you very much for the kind words. Greatly appreciate it.
Hope you come back one day. Have a great time Sir! And always 1mm clearance under your skid plate😂❤ see you
Thank you so very much! And yes, I do plan to come back hopefully soon.
informative as always thanks for sharing
Thanks 🙏 Greatly appreciate it.
Awesome channel and great video ❤❤❤
Thanks and welcome
I would like to change the axle links to the transmission plate. Can u do a video abt the upgrade pls.🥺
I am not sure what you are asking...maybe 4 link conversion...if that is the case, I have few videos on it that should help.
Whats up Bigsun? Where are you? No more vids?
Thanks for asking. Going through a bit of home remodeling and lost my workspace at the garage and all the rains earlier in the year also did not help with filming time. I have an upcoming trip out of state as my oldest is graduating from college. I plan to resume afterward, so I will be back with new vids mid-May.
Thank you for the info. Stay healthy.
Thanks and you too!
NIce video, doesnt lowering the ride heights, cause body rub?
The rear body rub is caused by wheelbase more so than the lowered ride height. The body is designed for 12.8" WB, but Sendero SE comes with 12.6" WB with the current links. I plan to address it, and that should help with rear body rub.
Once again so simple how do you see these things 🤔🤔🤔
Thanks. Just looking to optimize performance.
What is the point of lowering the rear? I raised my body so that the tires no longer rub when the springs are compressed. The tires on your Sendero grind even earlier now..... IMO, isn't it ?
Helps with lowering the cog
Great question. It’s a step towards the end goal. Incremental changes will lead to a truck that takes it to next level of performance. I will be lowering the front at some point. The whole idea of lowering the chassis is to lower the CG which is a big part of performance improvement.
Big sung you still around?
Yes, I am still around. I have been preoccupied with work and family for the past year. I am out of country at the moment, but I will be back in few weeks and hoping to resume filming again.
