  • Before we started this part of our Traxxas TRX-4 Sport Full Upgrade Project Truck build, we set out the parts we were going to use and figured we’d knock this video out pretty quickly. Nope! There is a lot that goes into assembling this body even though Traxxas has done a great job in prepping the parts to make it as easy as possible. They cut holes in the body, there are places to run wires, the fit of everything is perfect. But there is a certain order some parts need to be assembled and wiring may take some time to figure out. We tell you everything you need to know in getting the TRX-4 Sport body and all of the TRX4 Sport accessories bolted in and what you need to get the lights working. All of the parts we used are listed below. You don’t need them all or even all at once. Build your Sport how you’d like it to look. Of course we wanted to build the Ultimate Expedition rig so our truck is outfitted with everything for you to check out!

    The Tan does look good. Maybe Red Beadlock Rings would be less out there... But Rule #1 - it's YOUR Rig!! Do it your way.

    On my Sport Body I put that hole in the roof more towards the rear of the cab so the wire can run strait down between the rear window and driver door in the corner. Just seemed to make more sense from a wire management perspective.

    This body may fit well with the TRX-4 Sport, but it's not compatible with the TRX-4 assembly kit #82016-4. That information is nowhere to be found -- the Traxxas web site only tells you that you need a "TRX-4 compatible body (312 mm)". I bought this body with precut holes and built the kit before I discovered that this body requires narrow fenders, the rear body mount that comes with the kit wouldn't work at all, and the bumper that comes with the kit does not fit with the spare tire kit. I was not going to disassemble the kit to buy and install narrow fenders, so I cut the kit's fenders back until they fit. I bought another front mount that sort of works in the back of the kit (the precut holes line up enough to put it on but aren't exactly correct and require jiggling), and I had to buy a new bumper set to get the spare to fit. That's a lot of extra work, expense and delay that could have been avoided if Traxxas would just say what bodies actually fit. As it stands, I'm still not sure what body actually fits the kit. I also ran into some trouble putting a driver figure in the truck; it interfered with the antenna and I had to bend it over to make it fit. The other accessories mentioned in the video went together just fine and it ended up as a beautiful model in spite of everything.

    Excellent video, a pity that you have to remove the winch to install the lights of the front fender. Your tutor has helped me a lot with the installation of the lights, since Traxxas' instructions are somewhat confusing. Greetings friend from Madrid (Spain).

    How did you get such a nice fit with the rear and front bumpers ? If you cut to the Traxxas template lines, you will end up with an ugly 1-2mm gap on the side of each light, front and rear.

    Be aware the Traxxas lighting module (the box attached to the chassis) is known to suddenly short for no reason and catch fire. Absolute junk and a fire hazard.

  • @mikej8832
    @mikej8832 4 роки тому

    😂😂😂😂 I bought the TRX-4 builders kit a week ago with the sport body and rack combo. I'm getting the narrow inner fenders so I don't have to cut the others. Even planning to paint it tan and black like yours. Must be a good combo except I got Incision KMC Method wheels. Great series but now you got me thinking about lights. 🤔

  • @michaeledmonds3027
    @michaeledmonds3027 4 роки тому

    I noticed that your TRX4 Sport has fenders mounted on the chassis. Did you add those or are they part of the kit? My RTR doesn't have them. Also, to add fenders, do you need both fender parts kits (chassis andbody)? Thanks, Michael

    Greg, I have always wondered, how do you film your vehicles in action? Are you filming and driving at same time (from some of the shadows I have seen in your videos, it appears that way)? Or do you have another person to help take video while you drive? I’m curious as I would love to take some video of my UDR but usually I’m by myself. Thanks for the great videos!

  • @mikehogan27

    Another great video. I'm just finishing up my TRX4 Sport. Waiting for my hobby store to open up. So I can get the inner flairs #8081. Plus I want to install an RC4WD light controller so I can run some or all my lights at one time. I just feel it's more realistic no to always run all the lights all the time.
    Thanks for doing this series.
