That looks dope i used to upgrade everyone of my rc my e revo is like $2500 and my 2 wd slash is like $1400 only problem is no one will spend 1/4 of the money if you sell them everyone wants to trade or get something for nothing.

Sweet build! I love them shocks

I love my 2wd slash I have it widened with rustler arms front and back it’s killer

Awesome build, and video.

Great video, it was really helpful and insightful man. 😁👍

“Look at this, it has T-FHSS. That’s awesome. Everything should have T-FHSS.” 😂😂

I think the bigger spacers are intended for Slash 2wd front. As long as you have enough threads to engage the nylon lock on the wheel hex it should not be an issue. Definitely a boss build, those wheels are especially 🔥🔥🔥🔥

The slash platform is solid.

The center diff helps get through corners quicker. Just an FYI. ( I have a Traxxas Slash 4x4 that I got back in 2010, and I run a center diff in it).

AWESOME JOB!

you can mount the receiver box right behind the front shock tower. there is holes in the chassis for it. then the ESC will fit down in the chassis.

So why did you actually bought the slash from your friend if you used 97% of your parts?

That there is a good looking Slash. I had thought of something as I was watching the ESC and receiver box issue. How come you didn't mount the receiver box on your aluminum plate and mount the ESC down low? You wouldn't be able to use that specific plate obviously as you had made it to mount in the position it is. I thing the receiver and receiver box might weigh less than the ESC. Not 100% sure though as I never even thought about it till now. Either way, as long as it works, then it's good to go. BTW. Aside from the screws and a few other small bits, I think you just built a second Slash rather than using the original. Lol. That Tekin setup in the old chassis is a sweet deal. I've heard Tekin is a reliable ESC. I've got the same Castle system you have and have not even used it yet. I originally bought it for the Summit, but as time went on I thought about putting it in other RCs. It eventually got back around and the Summit is definitely going to get that system. I originally bought it because I thought it was a sensored system, which it is not. At the time my Summit was my only "crawler" hense why I wanted a sensored brushless system. A couple years later I picked up the TRX Bronco and now that is my dedicated crawler, so I can convert my Summit into an E-REVO with selectable lockers. Lol.
