INSTALLING Hot Racing SWAY BARS On my TRAXXAS SLASH 2WD 

After I put swaybars on my slash, it flipped way less. Probably one of the best upgrades ive done to it.

The install worked great! Thx. 👍

The preload on ur rear shocks is insane.

Thanks for sharing this information helps me

cool sway bar install

Hey Nolen I have seen this upgrade before the links for the rear thread into one of the spare holes for your shock you are also not supposed to use the spacer they just give you extra incase the screw backs out hope this helps

Rear sway bar is to be mounted to the chassis. Not a shock tower. Just like the cars we drive daily. I would imagine it mounts in the back near the transmission somewhere. Just a thought

Do you have a video about the components of your 2wd slash? I have seen it a few times in your channel, that rig looks insanely good man. I assume the body paint is custom

For the front sway bars I wonder how it would work with the RPM bumper because the RPM bumper does not have that extra bar where you can put the front sway bar mount. I'm going to search that up and maybe ill order a stock bumper because when I upgraded to the rpm one i just threw the stock one away because it was and terrible condition and scratched up. I have a lcg slash 2wd too. I still have the brushed system in it. I'm planning to put in a hobbywing max10 sct, a new radio system and a new servo. I had been looking at sway bars because 1. it still flips but not as much as the High cg chassis. And 2. I plan to race it and I do take it to my local indoor carpet track every other weekend or so.

I just bought these sway bars a week or two ago. Had similar issue on rear. I ended up mounting mine on the backside of shocktower. And luckily a have alum rear arms and they had screw Holes on the backside of the arms giving me a mounting point for swaybar facing backwards. It's funny cuzz I had to mount my front sway on the chassis instead of at the bumper cuzz I don't use a front bumper assembly.

Notification squad

The rear sway bar links mount to the rear of the control arms, not on the same Side as the shocks.

Hey Knolan( probably spelled that wrong) Would that sway bar work on a Bandit? Just wondering. My Slash Ultimate came with sway bars.

What shocks are you using I'm looking to upgrade mine on my slash. Traxxas GTR look nice but they're pricey. Thinking about going with Racers Edge I think they're like $22 for the front and 23 for the Rears aluminum my buddy put them on his truck they're pretty nice

So I did this on my slash a few years ago. I never ran the rear on mine because I'm using the rpm a arms to. Hot racing has instructions online and if you look the stock slash arms have a hole in the back of the rear a arm and that is where hot racing wants them mounted. Have you had luck with the rears yet?

I have some hot racing sway bars sitting around for my brushless ecx torment 2wd, which has a similar rollover problem to the 2wd slash. The problem is they only work with the hot racing aluminum A-arms. I really don't wanna spend $40 on arms just to get these darn sway bars to work. 😂

I have the vxl 2wd slash and I have it completely stock, the only real problem is accel out of corners when the inside rear picking up and braking while turning because the inside picks up and locks then no matter how hard I brake, nothing happens besides the inside wheel locking. Should I get a sealed diff with some oil like 30k wt oil in I to help or does the sway bars help more?

Well I’m not getting one now if it won’t work for the RPMs

I ordered a hydraulic brake kit + 3 speed transmission conversion for my baja 5b in 2016, neither came with any sort of instructions. They are still sitting in the box un assembled

Hey man does 4x4 slash have different sway bars
