*Watch In Full 1080P HD* Just a quick install video more towards the rear of the vehicle,due to the skill factor involved into installing the sway bar kit. You can purchase this kit where Traxxas products are sold. I do not own any copyrights reguarding the soundtrack. Ido own all the equipment used in the video such as lighting,camcorder and tripods. I use a low grade camcorder being the JVC Everio HD camcorder. If you guys want to see more videos please * Comment, Rate & Subscribe*
Supper helpful 10 years later 🙏🏻
Dude the blacked-out revo looks absolutely amazing
I dyed the chassis of my mini revo black when I broke it and plan to do it on the full size revo as well once I break that one but it's still holding up ;o]]
The only thing thats odd to me is that the front sway arm pivot is facing down in this video, but the instructions show that pivot facing up..any difference?
thats going to be a beautiful truck when done.. where did you buy them shock covers
Can you show us a running video to see what the sway bars add as far as performance goes? The benefits of having it and the downfalls of not having it?
How exactly did you dye your Plastics? I was considering spray paint but I don't want to deal with the paint flaking off
So this chassis is grey to start with . I used Ryte die and boiling water to dye it. I used an aluminum tray so that I didn’t damage any of my pans. Dipped it in and waited 30 mins. After that it waited for it to dry and it was done. Hope that helps
thanks, I hate reading manuals so this will help ;o]
I have the E-Revo since 2011 and after 10 years found out they make this ;o]]
got myself a new charger and some new batteries cause they are all dead and want to do a rebuild after this season so will install some RPM upgrades I never installed (rear tru-track, knuckles all around, front a-arms)
btw love the black chassis and rockers, plan to do that as well but it's really hard to find a pot large enough for cheap
I dyed my Mini Revo chassis and rockers black when I broke the chassis and actually got a pot especially for that task (got some long fish baking pot which worked great on the mini but it's too small for the the big Revo)....I've found some 20inch roasting trays but it's 60-100 dollars plus overseas shipping....locally I found some that are just tiny bit shorter than I need
Thanks! About to test
Without sounding daft what do the sway bars do? (new to the hobby)
Gary Jaques they give your ride a better stable feel. Great for terrain which changes in elevation or if you want to stiffen your ride even more. Hope that helps
how about for the long travel rocker set?
I'm confused on the sway bar color. Black bars are for one thing and stainless are for another but it only comes with one set of each. Do I have to buy two kits?
Seems like the new kits only come with one type of stiffness, so you might need to order the other ones.
Yeah the kit comes with a thicker black bar and a thinner black bar. Also comes with a thicker stainless bar and a thinner stainless bar. Do I need two thick black bars and two thin ones or do I just put the black up front and the stainless in back or vise versa?
Or is there only one bar for front and back. I could be being a dumbass lol. Does the smaller go in front and bigger bar in back
@@TheBerto840 the big bars are rear small Are front black are stiff silver are soft mix n match for different terrain
Can it be Mount om stock e revo 1,0 Må jeg ha annet vingefeste
Yea it can, this erevo is stock just need a few modification if you want it lowered like I had it, but yes you can mount to stock erevo with no mods
Dude can u explain me why do we use sway bar?😢 please
I think I explain it in the video : the main reason is to improve traction. Suspension is real trick in the RC world, if you were to transfer 1:1 to a 1:10 or 1:8th scale the difference is vast. But you’re in term counteracting the dip from the outside to a more central/inside position. In term improving grip and stability at best. Hopefully that helps, in this case for the Erevo it works wonders with those Truggy tires.
@@RCInMotion alright I got it .. so basically
e revo is a monster truck ..But bcz of this sway bar set up ... its basically getting transformed as a race truggy? Am I right?
@@sivatharsansivarathan4820 not really it just helps it, I converted it but because of the odd tub chassis it doesn’t make it a Truggy but instead a 1:8th beast/monster truck. So by tweaking the suspension and travel arms and rods I was able to convert it to a Truggy. The width is too wide to be considered a Truggy but with shorter A Arms you can achieve it.
@@RCInMotion thanks brother for taking a time a and explaining it to me dude❤️ much love to you and thanks again .. all the best for your channel 🤙🏽❤️😊
Nice video! I like the shock socks, and the black was it dyed or painted? I got the sway bar kit for my slayer pro 4x4, I hope it helps the performance.
RC Inc. yes it was dyed not painted. I did install the sway bar kit and it made a huge difference
it was very easy just mind how to place te parts. And stiffness on low for best results
Very very help full..This video definitely helped me install mine in the revo trx 3.3..Thanks buddy!
Awesome glad it helped out !!!! Thanks for the feedback
Hi did you have rubbing or did you see the note on the instructions that says to get relocated rear wing mount
@@Special311980 i have no rubbing. Its easy to figure out. Just mess around with it
@@resdawgs I have a Revo 3.3 just got the sway bar kit and saw it had a note saying need relocation kit for rear bumper so I was wondering if anyone did that I saw other vids of people hacking the rear plastic with Dremel and saws to make clearance lol
@@Special311980 yeah nah i didnt hack anything. Did u figure it out? Do u need a photo or video of the finished install?
it's left rear and right rear... not left right lol caught you.. nice chassis btw
@kidhosey I got them on badhorsie
Thank you brother!
lol habe was falsch zusammengebaut
what is the point of a sway bar kit on an rc?
Less traction roll,better handling on smother surfaces and at higher speeds.Less articulation through the rough terrain. Hope this helps.... glad you tuned in the channel. Thanks for the feedback.
Didnt show how you bolted in the rear so we just guess??? Lol love a video with half the project done off camera.......🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
And dont try and say I didnt watch it. The fan thing is bolted in from the start of the video....
you dont show how to put the rear bar on. bunch of jibber jabber..show it step by step..just afyi
You haven't watched the whole thing I can tell... It is installed step by step.... In addition it has added text of what to do... Just sayin
I watched the whole thing twice. Im on someone elses time..just so u kno..cant waste time fixing
lol, its so easy
It's not assembled wrong that's the proper way .... Don't know what instructions u have just saying
