I went thru a transformation build of of drag slash from a 2wd older slash. I finally completed it. There were alot of headaches that went with the build. Put bandit rear control arms with the new shorter turnbuckle. Also installed the front slash drag front control arms. Non of the original screws worked. With all the back and forth to the hobby store. I finally came to terms...your better off just buying a drag slash ..which I did. For 299.00 it all complete with motor and esc with a controller. Penny wise I suggest if your jonzing a drag slash..just buy one and save money and time. So I have 2 one I built as a conversion and one out of the box complete. It runs pretty straight right out of the box.
I was wondering about this project, a friend n me were just talking about this the other day n was wondering about it n boom here it is! We’re ur ears ringing lol! Was just talking about it n now it’s up a couple days later, ur making us wanna build one of these projects
GREG PLEASE READ THIS COMMENT! I can’t wait til u mount that hot racing sway bar kit, cus I have one n have no clue on how to mount it, no directions n every video online is someone’s different way of doing it, n none of them r hot racing on the 2wd lcg chassis so please be therow on how to do it, it will help a lot of people!
Excellent tip. I have a couple of sets of snips and have used them for RC projects before. But they are in my garage toolbox and I would have had to walk like a whole 20 steps to get them this time. LOL
I just upgraded some parts on my slash recently, this looks pretty interesting, I can't wait to see what wheel and tire combination you're going to use.
Yeah your vids are cool you do enough Montage to keep it Rollin but you tell us a lot of good information too by the way I bought a two-wheel drive slash yesterday.. brushless. It's the VXL but I didn't get the t c s so I may upgrade my controller soon
One of the changes I made to my 2wd Slash and Rustler builds was to change the caster blocks to the ones that came on the nitro version of Rustler and Slash. These move the bearings into the wheel hubs and keep the shafts stationary. Does it make a difderence performance wise? No clue, but I like the setup better as a personal choice.
I really enjoyed the video. I got one someone had already started. But dint do such a good job. I took it over and added some vinyl to the body. Now I don’t know what to do ppl love it and tell me not to run it.
This all looks familiar cus I just built a track slash with all parts from hot racing, strc, proline,traxxas, rpm parts it was over $1k to build but there’s not one part on it that’s not upgraded down to the bearings n stainless steel hardwear, I know I could bought a rtr but I wanted to build something that was made after the dream slash I had in my head, it came out epic!
I took notes from your build thanks. But my rear wheels won’t spin after 1 day out. My gears are fine the pins are in place. The motor and gears spin and the wheels spin a little when lifted in the air but on the ground just the motor spins. HELP WHAT DO I DO?!
Is this for real🤔. I like your channel but when I watch any build I dont want to see your face. I want to watch the build. “Im going to attach the cervo to the column” and I see your face and still have no idea how to do it. Good for you.
Awesome video!!! These longer vids are great.👏👏👏 I can't wait to see the end result. 👍👍
They take so long to make lol. Glad you enjoy them!!
Your biggest problem is going to be heat from the higher kv
Man I love watching these old build videos great stuff
This is actually the only video of yours I HAVEN'T fallen asleep watching out of maybe a dozen. Probably due to lack of music.

No sleeping here Greg! Great video as always. Keep them coming!
Awsome vid that slash is gonna be so cool
I am a little late but great series!
I'm glad you got back to this one 😀 really enjoying this series
Will do my best to keep it more timely.... but I am traveling to an RC event next week....

Aluminum steering blocks are a must. After you break a few plastic ones you get tired of it.
Love this build
When I reached the end and you said this is a long video I didn't even notice because of how good and explained the build was done
Love it man cant wait to get my new slash to to try something like this to i love drag racing them keep it up and hope to see more soon
Very good video showing how to do a conversion!
GREG PLEASE READ THIS COMMENT! I can’t wait til u mount that hot racing sway bar kit, cus I have one n have no clue on how to mount it, no directions n every video online is someone’s different way of doing it, n none of them r hot racing on the 2wd lcg chassis so please be therow on how to do it, it will help a lot of people!
Keep it them coming man awesome vids
Two words to make you bumper chop easier. Tin Snips. 👍

RCDriver_Online oh I see. That’s just a bridge too far. Lol
For the nine people that disliked this video you don’t know what fun really is

i he should do blastphemi skin on the 55 chev body
Rugger 878 yes he'll ya
Traxxas actually already did that, google it, its sweet!
Could you please do a drag car from a bandit, without a lcg slash chassis. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Why did you use the Jato arms and not the Bandit arms
Yeah your vids are cool you do enough Montage to keep it Rollin but you tell us a lot of good information too by the way I bought a two-wheel drive slash yesterday.. brushless. It's the VXL but I didn't get the t c s so I may upgrade my controller soon
We need to talk about that Makita drill that you're using😎
Great, informative video. Just a suggestion, I think you or maybe I missed some part numbers.
*****I meant to ask for a list of part numbers maybe in the last video. Thank you******
Part 2 Finally!!
Can you put sway bars on these lcg chassis?
One of the changes I made to my 2wd Slash and Rustler builds was to change the caster blocks to the ones that came on the nitro version of Rustler and Slash. These move the bearings into the wheel hubs and keep the shafts stationary. Does it make a difderence performance wise? No clue, but I like the setup better as a personal choice.
Wow you used 80wt in the front?
I really enjoyed the video. I got one someone had already started. But dint do such a good job. I took it over and added some vinyl to the body. Now I don’t know what to do ppl love it and tell me not to run it.
I actually run my shocks full of olive oil, it works surprisingly well, and it’s cheap or free coz most people have it in their houses
Fiiiinally
if you have the swar bar kit on your old slash.. will it fit on the lcg ?
I had a lcg chassis like that once and it messed up my steering and I could never turn right. Plus I liked the higher ground clearance
DirtRiderBen Did you make you sure your servo was in the right position, and set straight?
@@goldsrcracing5950 yeah. I even had a shop help me look at it and we never found what was wrong
new sub here!
What hing pins are those!
Nice
Yes
Awesome video. Would you sell me the Traxxas Boat behind you? Looking for one of those with the paint scheme like that for our Autism group.
on this r/c dragcar project can you please send me the parts list to build it?
Chevy Nova II Body Please!!
Just wondering when Part 3 will be up
i using 2 velco straps with my slash i modded the chassis to use velco straps
This all looks familiar cus I just built a track slash with all parts from hot racing, strc, proline,traxxas, rpm parts it was over $1k to build but there’s not one part on it that’s not upgraded down to the bearings n stainless steel hardwear, I know I could bought a rtr but I wanted to build something that was made after the dream slash I had in my head, it came out epic!
STEVO D 313 I wanna see what it looks like
Jagster 01 ya it should be sweet
Make a drift car from scratch
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
what was that metal chassis??
I took notes from your build thanks. But my rear wheels won’t spin after 1 day out. My gears are fine the pins are in place. The motor and gears spin and the wheels spin a little when lifted in the air but on the ground just the motor spins. HELP WHAT DO I DO?!
Check the slipper clutch
First comment yay
Crismas came early this year it looks like
Do the drone propellers bother anybody else
Whens part 3
Can I ask what kind of drivers you use for you drill? I’ve been trying to find some decent ones for a long time now and have had no luck so far.
OBA ?
I need my rc car fixed
Show show show part numbers

I will pay u all u need to do this to my slash
There is a guy on Instagram: rc_motorsports_ that builds custom cars like this for people.
Thanks
I have a q
too wide
Why not use the proline chassis?
