Junfac Drive Shafts instead of stock. Cos stock shafts is plastic.

Re: Oceanic's RC4WD Trail Finder 2 - The Build.
Great color choice, man! Looks familiar too; I think I've seen it on a Datsun 510 recently
Re: Oceanic's RC4WD Trail Finder 2 - The Build.
The assembly...
Driver: 7inch figures can't fit in as it has a bench seat (sold seperately) so use Halo as driver.
Rear body posts. (Idea came out of Bro Slow head )

Verdict
A great quality true to scale truck.
Easy to build instructions.
Indicated dimension of hardwares in various packages.
A truly enjoyable building experience.

Nice chassis!
Like to share with you guys how I mod similar chassis namely Tamiya highlift, as noticed the leafspring suspension is also very stiff and lacked the flex... for this mod if carried out on the TF2 may need some cutting!
Rear hinge bracket for leafspring. Only install the inside plate and bolt the leaf to allow some gap. Tamiya has a 2 piece hinge. TF2 not sure, maybe 1 piece so may required to cut...
Front view showing the extra articulation of the leaf...its actually side movement of the leaf not flex!
Something a stock highlift can never perform... its a simple mod which I learnt in other forums and hell it works!
Disclaimer: Above mods subject to Tamiya highlift only, may not work with TF2 unless other mods required!
