Full Build - RC4WD Trail Finder 2 - Pardonmyn00b's Turks and Jerps 

I feel like 75% of the hobby is sanding.

Try it and you’ll find it’s not that hard. Just take your time

Right??? Same here, I don’t have the patience… but watching these vids makes me want to go and buy some cheap parts and try some stuff.

It's kind of fun to watch yourself build. I don't notice some of the things I'm doing until I see it on video.

@@turksandjerps some of the items you used to fill in the body holes and other techniques you used made me go.... Huh? Wha? Ok that turned out great! We need more of these videos plz

Scale Builder’s Guild nice, thanks for dropping by

I think Noobs been around lot longer than SBG lol. Should be the other way around.

Thanks!

Thanks! The antenna is a piece of music wire. The emblems weren’t adhesive I think I glued them with CA

Cheers! All about the details

From RC4WD. Everything on the truck is from them.

Thank you! Shouldn't be too hard, have fun!

Glad you like them!

It's just a piece of music wire.

The kits don't come with the interior, it has to be purchased separately. The body only comes with a less detailed dashboard/no seats

I’m going to pass on the TF3. Two steps forward, one step back.

@@turksandjerps the chassis is slightly more scale in terms of appearance. But the rear leaf setup is messed up. They really need to make a chassis like the RCRUN 80. That’s a very scale setup.

Rustoleum bed liner from a spray can

Those countersunk bolts I installed into the rocker panels and covered up go into the stock body mounts on the side of the chassis. I drilled out the posts to accept the bolts as a pin. Just pry the body out and snap it into place. And I kept the rear posts as stock. Hidden by the canopy.

@@turksandjerps Clever 👍🏻 Awesome thanks mate 🙃👍🏻

What commercial?

Thanks for stopping by!

That makes this all worth while

Glad you like it!

That’s great, have fun with the build!

@@turksandjerps i got some questions about the mojave 2 body What kind of tools do you recommend i get? What kind of glue do you use? Any tips on that or beyond will be amazong Thank you

@@richlee7047 What kind of tools do you mean in particular? For like assembling or modifying? I have a video about glue that might be worth a watch.

@@turksandjerps thank you for the reply tools for assembly, to like cut everything up, smoothing out parts i cut. Also yes for modifiying or just tools i should have for this type of build. I will look for the glue video

@@richlee7047dude just watch his videos. You will learn EVERYTHING you need to know. Noob has been around as long as I can remember, making beautiful trucks.

Thanks

Thanks so much, you too

It’s USC Icing. A two-part putty like this harder and less likely to shrink.

@@turksandjerps ahh that makes sense. Definitely going to use some of your ideas in my build. Your's turned out awesome!!

Needs less flex. Clean builds are too hard.

Thank you

RC4WD sells it

Thank you

The black glue is

Watch again, maybe one will

I’m pretty sure the tailgate handle comes on the chrome parts tree that includes door handles and the marker lights.

@@turksandjerps thanks, I’m going to put the standard bed on my Marlin. Surprised they don’t offer the 79-82 Hilux body with the standard bed. Yours looks amazing and just confirmed that’s the right look for me

@@j.r4985 You're welcome. It will always be a mystery as to why they do the things they do.

I have all sorts, mostly cheap things I find here and there. I'm hard on brushes so I don't invest much.

@@turksandjerps thank you!!! So many guys think they need to recommend and buy some $100 brush…

Ok, sounds like a plan. Thanks for watching

If anything, I make it look difficult.

Thanks, I hope there's some interesting things for people to see and learn.

@@turksandjerps definitely a cool way to showcase the different ways. I usually keep a photo album of my builds, and shre them with people, especially people that are new to building. I'm no master, but can definitely help people kick off their builds with some inspiration if anything. My question is how you filled in the body holes, how's it mounting to the frame? I juts fill the holes, and use the screws from rod ends and pull the body over them and they sit in the back side of the body.

20-25 hours

Thank you

Thanks

Good eye! Yes, it's for him.

@@turksandjerps He’s gonna love it!!

I built this for him. No joke. Commissioned by previous owner to make a replica for the new owner.

@@turksandjerps That’s awesome. I don’t doubt it. It’s a PERFECT replica of his truck, right down to your hub caps and graphics… Now I just need to give you a commission whenever you’re ready 🤙

Hope that's good thing

Thank you!

Thank you so much!!

Thank you for watching
