I love what you do for me, Chev-ro-For-Yota!

Great review Matt. I always appreciate your take on things, and you tend to notice things that others don’t talk about online (e.g. the slider covers - I didn’t realize that was a part of the design). Thanks for the review!

I'm finally building mine. I'm very impressed with the kit. Very nice tolerances and fit so far

I will have to pick one of these up. I almost got one a few different times. One of the only kits I have yet to build. Thanks for the detailed video.

Looks like a pretty gnarly kit for sure..been eyeing it for a little while now..DEFINITELY on my next to buy list🤙 Cant wait for a run vid man🤙

Almost done with my scx10ii build and am now thinking I need one of these in my collection as well.

This a great kit.a chevy pick up would look good.happy New year and lots of health my friend

RC4WD Blazer body FTW! I just built this kit. Great chassis. I'm using the Reedy Radon as well. SSD stated they designed the stock location of the motor to keep the motor weight as low as possible.

looks nice,cant wait to see what you do with it.

Awesome video my friend this is a great kit from SSD lookin forward to gettin one & seeing your videos on it very nice happy bashing bud.

Great review on a somewhat obscure chassis. Amain has the 2 trans spacers as well as headers for the stock engine placement & for the 2 spacers. Interesting graphics on your Hummer in the background: Groovy Baby!

Best kit for the dollar out there. The extra money over the Axial kit is well spent and the SSD has none of the problems or required upgrades of the Axial. Very nice chassis. Battery placement is a non issue. It is far more stable than my SCX10.2. Lots of room for interior. Shocks do not leak at all. Can't say enough about this kit.

That a great looking kit!👍😎

thx for the great vid seen this the other day interesting kit

This is my new go to scale platform I have 3 of these projects in boxes, Mr. Theide has that badd habbit too lol 😆 great review Matt really appreciate what you give rc 👍

Very nice informative video. Thanks for sharing

Wow, that's so cool! I wish you all the best in the next year! I'm practicing for filming, too. Let's cheer for us. Fighting!

Slight terminology correction. The t-case is not divorced. In a divorced t-case system, there is a driveshaft between the rear of the transmission and the front of the t-case, as on the trail finder 2. No big deal, just for clarification purposes. Love your videos.

This is awesome!

i like my SSD trail king with the hard body Injora Jeep Comanche on it , a great performing truck!

I’m thinking the RC4WD Blazer body on this truck. Either in its stock form or a pickup conversion. I think a crew cab short bed would be pretty cool.

Love the look of those Patagonia tires! Curious how they perform?

Good information, don’t leave anything out 👌

so finally i got one and i have to say: it's awesome. the engine cover position is still scale f.e. Poison Spyder BAJK or Casey Currie's U4 Jeep

I am running the proline CGR bronco body and assassin wheels. I just wish the rock sliders were a bit narrower to fit narrow bodies

I wonder if then smaller upper links could be for clearance as well, for suspension travel

Like to add, they offer the trans spacers and headers for the different spacers at time of purchase on amain. The price point is awesome!!!!

@12:15 in the video you can see the receiver box is crooked. My did the same thing. It fits tight in between the chassis. Just a little something to look out for if you are building one.

DEFINITELY on my someday Dream List. Looks AND Performance!! I've only had SSD Axle Housings in the past, but the quality of those are enough to sell me. Not giving up yet.... Happy New Year to you and your Family Matt!! 🎉🍻🎉🍺🍹🍻 Carmine ✈🚂🚙

I just had a major brainstorm and I'm wondering y noone has made fuel cell battery holders or batteries that look like fuel cells and figures (drivers) that are actually speed controls. That way the (fuel) is in the fuel cell and the driver is essentially driving yet there would b more space in the vehicle

I already know what kind of body you will use for this build, not sure exactly which version you will build, but it's going to be a square body Chevy or GMC.

Does anyone know whether the front SSD axle with an offset pumpkin will work with a stock SCX10ii? I'm guessing there would be trouble with drive shaft binding because it's on the opposite side in relation to the pumpkin. Maybe a transmission flip would make it work?

@@scalebuildersguild Long term, sad to report that your suspicions at 11:00 were spot-on, so, well done. These axles are a problem, even on a light rig like this. The centre plastic housing collars are not robust enough to support the tubes, and before long the tubes become loose and sloppy where they plug in. The only solution is to replace the centre housings (which are thankfully not expensive). You need to replace the tubes eventually as well, whether they are plastic or even if they are metal, as the threaded holes for the m3 screws also become sloppy. I don't have enough experience with other multipart axles to know whether this is to be expected, but it sure isn't a problem with axles where the pumpkin and tubes are one unit.

Well my friend if you go with the Chevy blazer you won't have to move or discard the fuel cell. That being said it looks to me like it needs a Chevy S10 body that would be the obvious small block Chevy engine swap

I am going to guess a some sort of Chev body, maybe a blazer, seeing how the motor is a small black chevy replica.

I'm not to sure about ssd steel quality. I've had ssd universal steel drive shafts on my scx10. They lasted much shorter than stock drive shafts. SSD titanium suspension and steering links has been excellent. Unlike the soft steel they used in drive shafts.
