Tamiya Hilux High Lift | with the Red Leaf Springs

Ойын-сауық

This Tamiya Hilux High Lift was my very first RC. It was a kit then. Since it is running on leaf springs it really can not perform the impossible like the TRX4/TRX6 or the REDCAT with 4 links. The stock TAMIYA springs are stiff.
As I moveon with this hobby i come along with this leaf springs from RC4WD, so there i give it a go.
And wow, i never enjoyed this truck more than ever since i have it.
In this run i noticed some things that needs to be improved. i installed the stock trx4 motor and esc. i think i will change with a holmes hobbies/ hobbywing combo. and yeah not to forget the transmission- it is really low- hang up many times. it is like having a dig unit. it is either i need to be a better driver or i do something to raise it at least a centimeter of the ground.
Im running with the stock gen8 wheel tire combo, irock super swampers, they are nice and grippy. they are big and scratching the body but i will still keep them to gain more clearance anyways they are not scratching all the time.
With this improved performance, i will consider repainting this rig for sure.
Thanks for watching and reading. Please dont forget to subscribe.
see you on the next video
Let us enjoy the hobby.
SALAMAT PO!

    @@freshstonerc great build tough. Same was with me had been on other rigs . Just got hold of the high lift . Quiet capable chassis. Just added brushless crawler motor and esc . Stock wheels and suspension are big disappointment. P.s. you have a very desirable hilux setup . Simple clean and effective
