Hello this is Marcelo with BleepinJeep. I have received tons of questions on how to do this Axial SCX10 Leaf Spring conversion from RC XJ Cherokee fans and others. It's very easy and all you need are the basic rc4wd leaf springs and hangers.

I'm sure many of you enjoy MotorTrend's "Dirt Every Day" episodes even though the MotorTrend channel features Ferraris, Volvos, and Cadillacs most of the time. Despite what many of you may think the BleepinJeep channel is NOT a Cherokee channel, it IS and was always meant to be Anything 4x4 related. That includes Jeeps but also Toyotas and Unimogs, RC's, trail riding, heck it may even include camping related videos in the future. BleepinJeep will continue to grow and expand with content related to the 4x4 adventuring we all love. If you have suggestions of how we can differentiate the content I am all ears, but I would think the titles speak for themselves. Thanks for watching!- Matt

Come on guys. I don't know a lot about the RC hobby. But if its something that gets you outdoors and something for a family to do together. Or getting a child involed in a hobby. I'm all for it. I want to see the Scorpion Project as much as anyone else, but I know working on my own Jeep takes massive amounts of time. And I like the addition of new things to the channel. Like the Mister Rodgers parody. Thanks BleepinJeep. Keep up the aweeome work.

Imagine the mindblowing experience of coming across this; planning on putting all my old 10.1 stuff to use for something different; and realizing it's not just BleepinJeep, it's THAT BleepinJeep. Come a long way from RC crawling content.. I'll stick to my tiny trucks. xD Thanks for this video though; still being put to use even now days.

Still helping out today; RC4WD discontinued their kit even; honestly this is the most straight forward way to build a SCX based leaf spring build, especially if you still got 10.1 stuff kickin' around like me. KZfaq's still pushing the content for relevant search terms; what got me here.

hello my car is toyota landcruiser prado, model year 1995 some people call it "1kz prado". it is factory made with rear coil springs and now i want to do away with the rear coil springs and install leaf springs for weight support (i intend to use the leaf springs from landcruise 70 series or 1hZ or D since these two models have the same body type), of course i will have to replace the rear diff as its original diff wont allow me to install the u bolts where the shocks will seat. On the frame i see like there are some provission holes but i will have to weld a leaf spring hanger to hold the shackle hanger to leaf spring. i hope you understant what i mean.

@ericfaley9019 8 жыл бұрын

cool video. I have both a Comanche and Cherokee body for my scx10. I ordered parts to do this conversion as this is more like how they are built. how about some info on what shocks your running also how thje front suspension is set up. I see the front springs are separate from the shocks.

@dogcrick 8 жыл бұрын

Kinda funny all the dislikes you are getting... Some pretty lame people if they don't like R/C. Especially scale Jeeps from Axial Racing! That is all I do! The first thing a hater always says is "Get a real Jeep" My response is usually "Bitch I've got more real Jeeps than your whole family and my R/C collection is still worth more!" LoL! I actually run my R/C Jeeps over my real ones due to the fun factor and the fact that if I break the toy I can still go wheeling in the 1:1 on the way home lol! Good video guys. I am waiting on my Cherokee hard body to show up then I will be doing a rear leaf conversion as well.

Dear Matt, Although I truly appreciate anything 4x4 and am compleatly nonbias toward any make or model of off road vehicle I can defiantly see the relationship this video has to your channel. However the reason I believe everyone is being so negative is due to there is only so much content posted to bleepinjeep per week and when it's finally that day that you are looking forward to watching a beautifully constructed well thought out video it is kind of a killjoy watching an R/C post. That being said. Keep working your magic and making great content.

Oh and for the haters saying that rc’s are childish and what not. Think again. These are not your Walmart toys. These are a real hobby grade rc that you can get as much money wrapped up in as a real car. They start at 200-400 for the starting kit or rtr and then you have a ton of upgrades just like the real thing, this is an expensive hobby that takes a lot to do. I do this hobby I do crawlers and race oval. I have about $500 wrapped up in my oval car and it is no where near a top notch car. It’s competive where I’m at but not nationally. And my crawler I have about $500 in it and again. It’s ok but if I do competitions with it it is no where near competive honestly. This a a true hobby that takes commitment to do.

I am a huge fan of bleepin jeep. I think it is one of the best automotive channels on KZfaq for content as well production. Each of Matt's videos are quite well made and it is clear he spends a good deal of time making them informative and entertaining. I have even warmed up to some of the alternate hosts who also have good content. All that praise being said I was very disappointed in this video. I understand the need to grow and diversify the channel. I also believe videos such as this one may attract a new audience. Nevertheless I feel toy car videos have no place on this channel! Who the hell was that even? No intro, no description, not even a face to go with the giant fingers! I know bleepin jeep is not a jeep specific channel. I didn't get this upset when Tyler welded his buddies diff... That's because its relevant to the hobby! Rc things are a completely different side of KZfaq! This garbage should be over in the section with my kid brother's Minecraft channel! You can not, no, will not trick me into watching more rc tomfoolery.

I "liked" the video, but I'm kinda torn on this honestly.. I appreciate the realistic-ness of the final product, and I love RC stuff, (I'm sure a lot of Jeep guys do), but what I don't like is form-over-function. I just finished a 4-link build in the rear of my XJ because as everyone knows, the leafs really aren't good in terms of performance. Sure, they have simplicity and stability going for them, but nobody (in their right mind) swaps from a rear 4-link suspension to a leaf setup. Yes, I'm aware of the guys swapping to leafs in the front of their XJ's, but honestly, that makes more sense than this. At least their suspension is balanced.. anyways, carry-on.
