Thank you for this! Very helpful insights! I'm new to this and got the Defender TRX4m, and planning to keep it simple like your setup. currently I actually ordered the 40.3:1 injura tranny gears, and those beadlock rims and some brass weights and injura 58mm tires. I'll look more into swapping the bushings soon.

I’ve been thinking about an aluminum servo mount too, but I wondered if that plastic flex would protect the servo gears more to absorb stress when you turn the wheel and it hits something immovable. Maybe just wishful thinking and probably over analyzing, but who knows.

I ordered some Injora bead lock wheels like that but they will not tighten down all the way with stock equipment. They were loose and unstable at least on my Defender.

That’s odd I haven’t had that issue. I like the little guy racing parts stuff as well. More expensive but pretty nice.

Great mods. Did the bearings come with an installation diagram?
@jmacsgarage Жыл бұрын
Thank you They did not. I just replaced one at a time. As I removed each bushing I would match it with the bearing. There are only a couple different sizes so it’s not to bad. Hope this helps. Thanks.

You can swap in the lower gears(the crawler gears). That’s the cheapest way to get what you want. Later on if you go brushless you will notice even more and have a lot of top end even with the low gears.
