I'm just getting into rc cars and just purchased a traxxas slash 4x4 sheldon creed edition, and ur vids have helped me get into this hobby faster. Perfect video. 👍

💕❤💕 Oh I'm so glad I finally found a Channel with with someone who not actually is educated about there Traxxas RC car but your videos are absolutely Clear and understandable 👌 your attention to Detail is Top Shelf I myself am a Detail Freak sometimes I think im more into that then driving 🚗 the car lol. I have a few am working on a Slash 4x4 right now and your information is PRICELESS and also will work well with my Stampede VXL 4X4 which I have already moded up well I thought until I watched your channel lol. Obviously you don't only upgrade the looks you also upgrade the things we don't see that are critical to the performance and preserving are RC cars and Trucks and your tips and tricks and detailed breakdowns and rebuilds don't skip over the critical parts most skip over which always leaves me scratching my head 🤔. I have been a Master Model builder for most of my life and working with my hands on this kind of stuff keeps my brain fresh at 62 lol as I'm disabled now I cant build things from scratch anymore from wood and metal because I now have carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands as of the last few years its progressed and back and hip issues but this Hobby has given me new hope again with a little patience I can still do it I just might drop a few more screws and say a few more bad words but I try not too lol. I have had my Grave Digger and Stampede for over 8 years and there like new I recently took them out of storage bought 2 new Lipos and cleaned them up and away we go woohoo lol. I have moded up the Stampede significantly to the point after changing to bigbore shocks increased the shock oil wt to 50 the things Heavy now I hope I didn't make it to heavy. Anyway sorry im way off topic here I just kinda wanted to intro myself and my background to you thats funny im sure you will remember that along with all your other subscribers lol anyway THANK YOU AWESOME CHANNEL I wish there were more like it 😊 👍 I'm going to be spending alot of time watching your videos catching up getting educated on taking care of my Traxxas Stampede and Slash and Grave Digger.

More, more! Make more please! WELL done!

Dude, this is there first video that I have seen from you and I can already tell that you are awesome. Keep up the Good Work!

Love your videos mate, have helped me a lot. Saved me on the steering bellcrank job. Hope you and your family are safe atm. 👊🏻 Cheers from Australia.

Excellent video! Thank you for taking the time to help others! 🤘🏻

Great video and thank you so much for your great explanations and camera angles!

New to the hobby and let me tell you! Your video is amazing!!! all aspects of definitely helping me out. Great job man

Whoever disliked the video has no clue on why they were here to begin with. This is very informative. Well done.

Aloha, Great video!!! I am just getting into the hobby and really enjoying it. You make it look very easy. Thank You!!!

Nice vid. Very clear and precise. Avid should give you free bearings, I'm going to order my next lot from them thanks to your plug 😎

Great vid bro!... When I bought my Traxxas Rustler 2WD, it came with bushings. I quickly upgraded to bearings & what a difference. Also, If you're doing high speed runs & your budget allows it, go with hybrid sealed Si3N4 (silicone nitride) ceramic bearings A5, preferably A7. Or else you'll be replacing them bearings quite often. Ceramic bearing balls are 'much' harder than stainless. Yet they are lighter & have less friction. In identical operation, the ceramic type experience less than 10% the wear of the stainless version. So yeah, they're more expensive at 1st, but you'll be replacing them 'A LOT' less. I'm in the work of replacing all my bearings with ceramic hybrid type since I do mainly high speed runs.

Fantastic video. This is great if one loves to fix things. I really had issues with my Traxxas 4x4. I'd tossed it away actually. With all this lock down going on, I pulled it out and realized that the problem was a slipping center diff/clutch. It's now working!! Not sure I'll set out to change all the bearings, especially on this stock version. Might as well buy another one. Or may not, with all these lock downs 😅🤣🤣

Very thorough and informative! Thank you

Awesome video man!! Really appreciate it !!

Thanks a lot man probably I will get new bearings for my slash :D Helped a lot!

Great video. Thanks for taking the time!,

Good job man. Good vid!

Awesome video, done very well.

Fantastic video. Thank you

Love your videos. Very informative

Great video!

Excellent video just subscribed

Great info man 👍

Awesome video!!!!! Super helpful thank you. Can I ask why you didn't clean the parts more? It hurt my OCD haha

These are great videos Are you going to make more?

Awesome video thanks

Well done mate!

I didn't change my bearings simply because I didn't know I needed to about three years ago so now I have had to replace almost everything a bearing touches as the get stuck

Where can I buy the tools you’re using? The look super nice.

It’s good to change the motor bearings too

In the middle of a complete bearing change on my Slash 4x4 myself, just finished the rear differential rebuild and now I'm not sure if I put all the bearings seal side out, and my OCD self is going to have to take it apart and check 😂

Very clear video. Thank you! Do you have plan changing all the screws to stainless steel?

Nice breakdown! Very helpful to us noobs. 😎

Can you please provide a link to the bearing seating tool that you have as it looks like a really useful addition to the toolkit for all things RC. Thanks man and keep up the great work!

Great job thanks for the video

Regarding the wheel bearings, is there a tool or trick to remove a blown bearing? The outside edge of the bearing is seized in the rear hub.

Do you have any issues with the mip axels rubbing up against the aluminum hub carrier .

Hi mate awesome videos once again, would love to see more. Where did you by the shock towers from?

once you change de 54t gear on the sleeping clutch for one in metal did you break anything in the gear box? im scared of but im also bored to change my gear every time im using a 3s

great video what shock tower is that ?>

What heat sink and fan do you have on your motor? Do you have a link?

great job subscribed !! can you please share whats the motor fan you have and how did you wire it up

Hi nice video . No shims ?

Great video I subbed ...

Would white lithium grease work on my rustlers bearings or should I add no grease at all

What fans are those on the motor and esc?

Had a question about your setup...where can I find these items you are using? 1. Shock Towers 2. Chassis Brace 3. Body Insert? Enjoyed your videos. Some of the best tutorials I've seen. Maybe you can do one on diffs and shocks next time. Or proper meshing. new sub. Hope to see more videos soon. I know getting settled into a new home puts a hold on a lot of the "fun" stuff. :)

What is the internal cage of your slash please? Greg from France✌

thank you..

my center spur bearing went out and messed up my rear diff and center drive line lol

do you have trouble with the hex slipping when tightening the wheel nuts. I had to drill a hole for the set screw or my hub would bind and not roll

What brand are those axels ?

Haha the only bearings that I need to change was inside the motor... I had to buy a new one.... there was nothing left. The coils where jacked the magnets where loose and the core was bent... well I guess it wasn’t the bearing it was more or less the 120mph crash directly into a bridge hand rail

nice vid! what interior do you use?

Can anyone tell me the name or brand of the oil he used to prevent the screw from unscrewing itself at 9:04. Thank you!

Awesome video. ..but you forgot a bearing in the diffs

Wow u have a forest!

What shock towers are you running?

1000th Like !!!! 🎉

Subbed

Assuming you have a stock slash ultimate 4x4 you could just buy a 23 piece kit

pinion gear bearings

if you don't drive in the sand or water only pavement how long do the last ?

what bearings for wheel

eyyy im norwegian too

I commented

Nevermind I missed it

hahhaha don’t say “step”

The teflon washers he completely does not have on his truck are important. He also completely misses explaining the importance of pre-soaking your bearing. So be careful following this as a step-by-step instructional video. To add to his resources being offered. There are kits on Amazon SS or standard. This is an SS kit: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IIEF3EI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 FYI: Rubber vs metal side covers has nothing to do with water proofing. It is about serviceability and the ability to oil or grease said bearing. @Northern Light RC - I have to ask because you have obviously thrown alot of money as this truck with more metal than the avg 8th scale conversion. So since money or weight isn't really a problem then why have you not switched over to stainless steel fasteners?

Great video thank you
