Wow!
Incredible building!
Thanks again for sharing with us.

I’m starting this build with a ton of misc parts I bought from DHood many years ago. Saw the Andy’s painted body on eBay and liked the scheme so I snatched it up. And also a big thanks to Todd at Vintage RC Parts for copying some damaged/extra hole parts in carbon for me. I need to look into an anod...

Lavigna First off, I just love this car... awesome. But I like the matching rear bulkhead and might wait before replacing it. Wheels will tend to mute the carriers "blueness". A body and shocks will tend to mute the bulkhead. And could a blue esc and/or other blue anodized parts bring the ...

As I seem to say with all your builds, fantastic work! The bulkhead appears to match well in the photos, but I'm sure its different IRL. If you remove the blue bulkhead, what will you do with it then? I'd hate to see it demoted from a beautiful build to storage.

What a Beauty of a car....I need one

I've never seen a Trinity motor mount for a XX4 in person, so please pardon my lack of knowledge, but whats the threaded hole in the top of it for? Another beauty, BTW!

Edit: Found the answer: It's for an optional locking set screw. Should have known...

I don't follow your builds to see what everyone else likes. I like to see your vision. Just sayin...

Love the black wheels!

Picked up a new engine, couldn’t beat the price. And will fit the style of the build better when I start anodizing and coloring. It’s going to sting anodizing the McCoy pipe. But oh well. I’ve got another. Been keeping an eye out for a donor truck but they’ve been fetching more than I’d like to spen...

Another amazing build Lavigna, setting the bar really high again! But what a shame you had to part with your original Kinwald, must of been such a tough decision to make. Do you know who it went to, can you get it back? Really liking a lot of the touches on this build, those Ti outdrives are a thing...

Well at least it got you out of your situation I suppose, and gives you the motivation to do an even better build, which you have! Yeah sorry, I read your whole thread after I posted, and a lot of what I said you had already discussed, so that's all good :D No, probs, Like I said, just suggestions, ...

Interesting point about the rear bumper - I had forgotten that they updated it, nice little touch there!

That close up photo of the cut front body mount is also a killer shot of that front shock tower!!

Also the shot of the rear shock tower highlights just how neatly your trimming work is Adam!!

I note you've added the gold washers too

Hello!

For the black spur gear you can use the one from TLR 22 1.0 (TLR3979 for 76T, TLR3980 for 78T and TLR3981 for 86T).

Have a nice day!
