I think you are correct, we went a little bit backwards in this video 😂 in that respect the tall tires help with ground clearance but in my experiences, the sweet spot is in the upper 50mm something like the mini trench kings from LGRP do great. And 3-D printed inserts are the way to go for side wall stability. All of that to say, I think you reached a point of diminishing returns a little bit. Just food for thought and constructive criticism. Don’t take this the wrong way love everything you’re doing. Keep it up.

on these rigs, unless you're building a comp and fabricating your own parts including a chassis, little losses will go unnoticed... especially if it was fun to run. My power wagon is absolutely horrible on sidehill and vertical and downhill. but its really fun to drive and challenging w/o being frustrating. I go with fun over function any day. brings a smile is a winner

Regarding trimming… As in cutting sheet metal, I would recommend a pair of left cutting snips, and a pair of right cutting snips (reds or greens). This way you can control the curve you are trying to make with great accuracy. They make scissors the same way.

boy that tires just look exceptional on that rig, great video as usual my man

Adam if you wanted to add more lights on your JL, i recommend putting a small cotton swab on the jlu head light decals lightly. Then the lights will look like the real jeep too. I did it to my scx24 gladiator

"I want that factory look" 😂 that went out the window

glad to see i could bump up overdrive in front, i ended up scoring the x15 on that mofo flash sale. threw stock gear ratio in rear after watching you try with 50% and saw how slow it was, 14%od in front seems to work good to. Just need the heavy knuckles now i ended up losing some weight from the heavy stock addons i had on stock axles. my builds like completely shadowing this awesome content.

Great vid bro! The jeep is a much better performer now. Nice job.

Funny, it sounded like you started to say Metalcloak and stopped yourself! The shape you settled on is definitely similar to their aftermarket fenders and I'll be cutting mine in the exact same manner. BTW, I've always run Metalcloak fenders on my full size Jeeps. Excellent channel!!!

Awesome video Adam 😁 love the content!!

Perfect setting bro 😊really like it

I’m new to the crawlers but I really like what you did with the fcx24 PW I’d like to see you make it all wheel steering if possible

Great video. Fyi sandpaper grit should be printed on the back of the paper

Another good video. This build, like a lot of your builds, ended up being a little on the heavier side. I have often wondered, and I think it would be a cool video, to compare, for example, the performance of two JLU builds, one build being heavier like this one, and another one that has weight strategically placed but with the goal of keeping the overall weight less.

There's 3 different halo warthog rc in which you can take the body's off of and they fit the axial and I believe similar chassis as well if you wanna make something else completely custom

Looks awesome. Great content

Thanks I had no idea how to start shaping lexan!

I do a rough cut then smooth with sodering iron

What a classic ! well done Adam 👍 just wondering will you be reviewing the vanquish vrd stance rtr ?

Very nice I love it

Mind my ignorance but jlu means what😮😮😮

cool new look, RC with great adventure, always good videos bro👍👍😃

🤩

So the rough power delivery problem you had in the first two videos was solved with axles? Or did you swap out the motor again? Great series! 👍🏼👍🏼

OT: what ipad keyboard/case combo is that?

@capecrawlers thoughts on the gripper vs the black label tires? and do those axles improve steering radius?

You forgot the rubberband set up
