r/TRX4

Been wanting to build one from scratch for a while. Here we go!

Took the ole girl out.....I gotta get some nice driveshafts, my ujoints are at the end of their patience 🤣🤣

I am new to RC & have started with a trx4m f150 hightrail. In the 3 months since I've started I have made so many upgrades. Instant addiction, haha. From portal axles to 59mm shocks, the only stock item left is the actual body. I have 70mm tires and they don't touch my fenders even at max articulation without even a stitch of shaping.

I beat the bejeezus outta my Ramalam and he is a crazy capable ride, but I really wanna see larger tires for where he's sitting heightwise

Had this shell for a while decided for a periwinkle I'd shoot tamiya anodized blue then corsa gray then silver then black. Color came out great but I should have wiped the dried dust or blown it out as dried metallic settled into the second color and it looks 'dusty'. It's a notorious paint to use as it is.

Went ahead and finished printed details and window trim and panel lines so it's a done thing. Probably about $80 in paint. In reality one run in dust and you'd never notice
