Brother, as a youngest of 3 brothers, my oldest brother and at the time my father were into RC's a lot. This car has always been our main rc car. And i calculated, we have spent about 1000$ (including a 200$ castle system, a few sets of new tires, a replacement power system because that got burnt, and atleast 200$ in batteries) Just upgrading this very car. Its still the most fun car and the most durable car i have ever and probably will ever own. :)

Nice fly-by @5:04

I’ve had a slash for a while now and kinda forgot about it but your videos helped me get back into the hobby, Thank you

Nice man. I just ordered a slash 2wd vxl and am gonna upgrade it heavily.

also, my traxxas slash 2wd recently killed the wheel hexes and the space for it in the wheel. ordered a gpm one with those 5 'spokes' that save the wheels. i didnt know about it until i watched ur video in which u show them. Thank You very much!!

awesome run and upgrade

Love the build, I was curious would you recommend the upgraded transmission?

I've been racing my slash on carpet, it's built similar to yours and i bought a set of anti roll bars off amazon. They helped a lot! The front went on fine, but i had to cut down the arms a little, the rears did not go as instructed and took some creative thinking to get them to work!

👍🏽 thanks for the rip stay safe bro

My little brother has a 2wd slash and he put a little weight in the front end of it to help keep it on the ground

Are the spur and pinion gears covered in oil? If not, how are you running a metal sour gear?

Will it be a good idea to install a wheelie bar on that powerful truck?

U think about putting the jado arms up front so u can run 4x4 tires all the way around?

Are all slash 2wd clipless bodies or is that just the raptor version of the slash?

try paddle tires in the grass very fun.

Where did you get the axles I can’t find them

I have an old nitro 2.5 russler thats burnt up and was thinking about doing an electric conversion on.. its my only rc car and i started tinkering with it out of boredom. might just pick one of these up instead

Have you actually got 60mph with that gearing? I've got a 32t pinion and the 86 spur and I could only get 55mph. On 3s of course, but I was using a 3300kv Hobbywing max10

I just got mine yesterday I'm gonna upgrade mine soon there cheap but good.

Monster slash 2.8 proline badlands or trencher tires

what did you do to help with the parachuting?

Rear sway bar works great. There's no weight on the front and doesn't work well. It's cheap and will definitely help a basher or racer. Take care bud

How much was the ESE and motor

What battery did you use

6s MAKE IT A ROCKET

Looks like a rustler

Your math is a little off...Unless I hear you wrong. After you say the shocks are $60/pair, that's $120 on top of the initial $190 cost of the car. That's $310 without adding in the Trans & metal gears you upgraded. You have well over what a Slash Ultimate 4x4 costs new. I'm all for you building a custom RC, that's what it's all about...but this build is a money pit. Still...mad respects! You could've bought a XMaxx for what you spent on this build.

I've tried several different hardened steel drive shafts and I still snap them. It's pointless. Can't even get 5 minutes and I break a $75. MIP drive shafts.
