Super excited to try this in my granite! I think the battery tray won’t be a problem, since the battery holder on that model is sitting on the rear, not on the front like the big rock. Thanks AJ for uploading this video, it’ll help so many 3s arrma users 😊

I found that elongating The depression in the chassis that's already there like it is on the Mojave chassis helps with installing it and removing it. It can be pretty tight without doing that.

Yeah it seems like some people are able to and some people can't without modifying it. Personally I would do the mod either way because once you get some grit in there and it becomes hard to take out I think not having that extra room is going to be a problem.@@SteveSchmied-vv1pt

Re the wing, most opt to fit the rear wing mount & wing from the 4s Outcast, rather than screwing the Vorteks wing directly onto the body. Body dosnt get torn up as much when the wing takes a heavy hit, we also fit the 4s Outcast wing mount/wing to the Granite as well to protect the rear of the body. You do have to cut the rear skirt of the body away to fit around the rear wing mount using this method, no problem though.

Im going to be undertaking this in my Big Rock this weekend as Im so sick of slipper issues (culminating in the hex snapping inside my 7075 upgraded slipper, this week, rendering it useless). Its really the only thing I hate about the truck and have just as much fun with it (when its working) as I do my much more expensive rigs. Countersinking drill bits on order !

in my opinion if you want to race or drive it on road it is actually better but in offroad i don't take as much fun as before with the slipper

10k cst in a center diff of a basher? Way too low of a viscosity! I would put 100k minimum! Maybe even 500k! Being able to pull out the whole assembly makes it easy to adjust the gear mesh with audio cues. Adjusting the mesh with hearing is probably the best way to make sure its sitting good.

Smaller scales run less weight and a lot less power generally, they don't need thicker oils, also smaller tolerances
@Shadows-RC9 ай бұрын
@@restinpiecesrc5528Eh....not always. My E-Maxx needs thicker diff oil than my ARRMA Kraton 6s. Especially it's optional center differential. Why? Because there's only 2 spider gears in an E-Maxx, and they're smaller. 4-6s power on those really stresses them, so the thinner stuff is like water to an E-Maxx. 500,000 in an E-Maxx is like 20,000 in a Kraton 6s. I put one million in the E-Maxx's front and rear diffs, with earplug putty in the optional center one.

Yeah I'm curious too. I have the Mojave and I just got myself a Vorteks BOOST. I've done some measuring and the center diff module with the 4S motor, it comes down to about 5 inches exactly, and lining it up with the same Vorteks part, even with the 4S motor, it'll fit, just barely though. But with a 3S motor it should be perfect.

I really loved my big rock 3s when I had it after upgrading the diffs for $100, but after one too many slipper clutch deaths and the rear driveshafts blowing up I really gave up. Maybe if they release an actually good v4 with BOTH METAL ring and pinions on the diffs and the center diff I’ll order one.

Really cool. I just came back from my local hobby shop to check out this option and here you are posting a video on it at practically the same time. However my Big Rock is a V2 (blue body) with an older slipper clutch design. The input gear has a longer spline because the slipper assembly lacks the nut to secure the slipper plates. Does that mean I need more parts to make this work?

I have stocks and belted badlands and to tell you the truth the truck does better on stocks. Obviously they balloon more when we really crank it up but for bashing the truck handles and seems to have a better grippiness for what the chassis wants. They let the tires spin the perfect amount where the badlands you have to be real careful with the trigger finger.
