Just used this video too put bearings in two new TRX4M's, thank you so much for the video, and I also appreciate you just jumping in and going for it, relieves some of my anxiety of tearing two new trucks apart!
I have bought 2 bearing kits already and just got the bronco. and probably will get this set too. nice, paced explanation, I have built about 20 kits in cars and helicopters and always like added information in a non annoying presentation, which you have here.
Nobody’s mentioned this,but my two day old trx4m has stripped ring gear in the rear diff. I called traxxas and they will replace them under warranty with more nylon gears but it’s just going to do it again. I ordered metal gears,hopefully they will last a little longer.
My 1.5 does not fit properly into the 2 screws at the end of the axles. I even tried the alien wrench supplied by Traxxas and it still spins freely. Very frustrating, not sure what to do now.
This is why I got so far with mine and then sold it. I was unimpressed with the plastic everything and bushings. We are too far along with products for this type of bs from manufacturers. The truck was ok stock ,just needed weight and better tires for crawling but it was a slab walker out of the box if you prepped the tires first. Imho it's not worth 150. Mabe 75 bucks. I had 400 into mine and it was ok....didnt really reflect what was put in it.
