LC70 TRX4 Land Cruiser

Testing the class 1 BF-Goodrich 1.9x4.19” outer diameter tires from Pro-Line, also doing a flex/articulation test on the Pro-Line Big Bore Shocks installed on the Xtra Speed Cantilever rear shock setup. Using 100wt shock oil. Finally I wanted to see how the body performs with the rear roll cage installed, if it is a big hinderance or if it is tollerable to run with on a scale trail run. All up the test was conclusive and I found the shocks to perform excellently, i wouldn’t have expected any less from shocks costing “$120 AUD” a pair so $240 for a set. The tires were brilliant. They offered very good grip as per expected from Pro-Line and again from the price point of $60 a pair. $120 per set. The cantilever set up from xtra speed offers good versatility for those who don’t want to make holes in the pickup bed. “(Me)”.. The TrX4 is getting a little old now. 7 months of use pretty much every single day for 3-4 hours per day. The gears are getting noisier and the axles and diffs are also starting to show their age. The diff lock servos from Power HD “TR4” are still ok and so is the steering servo which was only replaced 2 weeks ago with the Yeah Racing 33kg coreless metal gear water proof HV servo, Very quick response time and I would say it has at the very least around 23KG of power even though it advertises 33KG. Much better than the 26KG power HD servo I use on the RC4wd d90 defender.
Test was a success and I am very happy with the outcome and results.
Happy crawing to everyone.
Warmest Refards to you all.

I have the same body but in dark green. Can you tell me what the truck bed rack brand called?

[@joshuamei7465]

Its so cute

What is the wheel base?
Your rig wheelbase seems longer. Are you using tx4 defender chassis? (The 324mm one.)

[@mikesrcreviewchannel3685]

Yes I used the Trx4 Defender chassis which is 324mm. That’s the reason I had to buy the TRX4 specific version from Killer body. Previously if you watch my other vid I had another Killerbody Lc70 that was meant for the scx10.2. It obviously did not sit correctly as the body was too short. All in all this project cost me $1k all inclusive with the “Mistakes” or “F’ups”.

Great vid man subd, where did u get the luggage rack from? Thanks

[@mikesrcreviewchannel3685]

Thanks my friend. I got everything you see from Asiatees.com
Here is the link:

Fyi: it is a “VM” roof rack. Similar in quality to cchand but i think this company makes stuff specifically for the LC70.

@@mikesrcreviewchannel3685 thanks mate also how did u mount the traxxas roof rack I really like the look of that

[@mikesrcreviewchannel3685]

@@g.w.3816 it’s not a traxxas roof rack kate. It’s a Cchand roof rack purchased from Asia tees.

[@mikesrcreviewchannel3685]
