I see alot of other types but i like the style your using best.what are you using for tires?and anything i should upgrade right away like servo?thanks so much for your videos,couldnt live without them brother.
Good morning sir just wanna say I watched your videos like 20 times lol man to be honest you're the most detailed & honest person on this gladiator review with excellent camera 📷 & explaining tutorial... but I definitely got one question on the 15mm wheel spacers can you please tell me if these are the same ones?
@@upgradedrc3697 thank you so much man I'm doing the 11t pinyon swap tomorrow morning just like your video 📹 😀 thanks a bunch again plz plz keep doing what you're doing man. I appreciate it 🙏
So the main thing is, you’re gonna get a lot of wheels scrub with whitening and this is an issue on the front end so if you have the stock servo that came with the vehicle you’re gonna need to upgrade it. Wider wheelbase equals more stress or notservo and all the linkage for the steering. Especially if you have portal axles. I put extensions on my TRX four, and after running it and doingRock crawling I have found that the service starts to heat up and loses 80% of its power in very little time. It is the stock servo.
Thanks, i didn't get any wheel scrub. My Gladiator is not stock by any means the links, suspension, axels, and portal have all been heavily modified and yes I am running a Reefs Raw 500 servo and a Holmes Hobby BRXL ESC with a BEC and i never got any scrubbing even with the stock S614 servo.
I might do some upgrades to the 24, but I still have lots lined up for other builds at the moment! If you want a sticker, Give me your full address and I will send you one. Right now I only have red, white, and black. Let me know which color you want.
@@upgradedrc3697 been trying for an hour how to find my messaging on this stinkin UA-cam app. Apparently they don’t want you to find it. Lol do you have a website or Facebook page I could message you in?
I got these from my local hobby shop, and i know that they are having trouble getting more in right now. But i have ordered parts from RC4WD directly and had no problem. Sorry this is being so difficult for you. Ya, I looked a couple places for you and everyone says they are discontinued.
Sorry, they are no longer available. But , I've been telling everyone that the hot racing ones are pretty good also. you need the 15mm spacers. let me grab you that link.
It's an RC4WD set of bumpers for the trx4 lol. And it took a couple of extra parts and a decent amount of modifications to make it work. There will be a video on it soon.😁🤟👍
You put out some unintentional Misinformation with the spacers. There 15mm wide. Not 15mm “wider”. You forgot to deduct the width of the stock hex to determine how much wider it is over stock. If you take the new 15mm and subtract your stock let’s say 5mm hex width hex , your now only 10mm “wider” on each wheel over stock. Easy mistake
@@upgradedrc3697 i tryed with both stock tires n wheels and b f Goodyear mud terrain t/a tires and a set of beadlock wheels neither set would work without serious fender and skid plate binding when turned to the inside tryed relocating shocks and increasing shock stiffness to no avail?????
@@markdeprano8175 Huh, I am confused. the spacers only give you more clearance. anything rubbing should have been worse before the spacers were installed. Is this on the Gladiator SCX10iii?
@@upgradedrc3697 yes stock gladiator just like urs took off spacers works great again only thing I can think of is cutting fenders or deletes cutting sliders almost back to bolt and mayb inner fenders can’t understand why didn’t work like urs it is the Rtr version of gladiator 10.3?????
Good job explaining. I feel like I could invest in a crawler and have lots of fun, by the way I am 70 yrs old.
Thanks for the video, I've been searching for a channel that can help me with my gladiator, and your it!!! Thank you!!
Thank you, more to come. Installing a 1250kv 550 15T 5 Slot Holmes Hobbies Crawlmaster Sport motor soon and a Reefs 422HD servo install coming up!
Nice mod I just picked this rig to add to my lineup. This is a def improvement I’ll be doing this 👍🏼
Very Nice! greetings from Brazil!
Man I love your videos! I’ve been out of r/c for years. I just picked up a Gladiator the other day and your videos really help!
Great video, thanks alot
Thank you ❤
You should add the brass portal covers, what a difference.
I will be doing that soon. Thanks for the info

My tires change constantly. But I like the Hyrax, the pit bulls, and the super swapers the best. It all depends on your terrain
Keep watching all the upgrade videos in order. That how I decided what parts were necessary to replace and in that order of priority.
@@upgradedrc3697 I live in maine ,alot of roots dirt rocks veg.
Good job friend! I sub~
should link the parts in description!

Weight gain of the wheel spacer, PLUS the 2 washers and the new bolt. So quite a bit more weight gain.
It helped out a little bit, when i added the brass diff covers i really noticed a difference!
Hey brother where did you buy those,looking to do the exact same thing
Sorry, they are no longer making these. But, Amazon sells the Hot Racing version for about the same price.
@@upgradedrc3697 Ive been looking on amazon and think i found some close to your,very simplistic thanks again.
Hi ! Any more info on these spacers ? Looked online and no follow up at all ! Tried RC4WD and other places ! All help welcome ......cheers
I got these from my local hobby shop, and i know that they are having trouble getting more in right now. But i have ordered parts from RC4WD directly and had no problem. Sorry this is being so difficult for you. Ya, I looked a couple places for you and everyone says they are discontinued.
Search goolsky adapters on Amazon. They have them.
I should give u mine couldn’t get them to work without tires rubbing on fenders and side plates
Where did you get these wheel spacers from?
RC4WD, but they discontinued them recently. Hot Racing makes some good ones on Amazon
Thank you for the heads up.
Will these fit on the scx10 iii jeep rubicon ???
They will, but they have been discontinued 😔
@@upgradedrc3697 i found some cant wait to get them to put on my jeep will send a picture
Do you have a link to these specific wheel spacers ??
Sorry, they are no longer available. But , I've been telling everyone that the hot racing ones are pretty good also. you need the 15mm spacers. let me grab you that link.
www.amazon.com/Hot-Racing-18mm-Wheel-Extensions/dp/B01I24S1GA/ref=sr_1_1?dchil
They come 2 per pack so get 2 packs.
@@upgradedrc3697 GREAT job URC. This Amazon link for 18mm extensions, will they fit an SCX10III JT Gladiator? Amazon states they fit SCX10 II.
@@mredias3762 I have only used the 15mm spacers, but I don't see why they wouldn't. I'd say ya, they should have no problem fitting.
Can you reply with a link to that specific rc i want to get one
