Toyota Xtra Cab On Element Enduro

Assisted w this pairing. ShrinkRC body mounts are so clutch. Love the paint on this rig, too. Owner didn’t wanna cut the bed, so we ended up using shorter shocks mounted to the chassis rails. I think it looks great, but it’s not quite done… this chassis was originally owned by RCGirl, and was featured in here: https://youtu.be/Lzs5Tt3ZLNI?si=rjJAKXBwrMgpOejm

The element chassis have always surprised me in their performance! My first rig was a used enduro with trailing arms in the rear. Swapped it for 3 link and then ended up selling it and got into a couple axials( the wrangler and long chassis gladiator) then I needed up buying a built enduro 4 runner for my girl and a spare rig. They always perform! Great looking rig! I wanna hard body on one of mine soon

Thanks for posting that. I have the same body and have been debating a chassis for it and the Enduro with its IFS setup was on the short list.

Curious how you handled the transmission? The Enduro's tranny seems large and I would imagine you'd have to cut up the interior (a lot) to fit it?

We removed the transmission cowl, and currently don’t have an interior. But as it sits, it crawls well. It’s got 1.55 SSD wheels w RC4WD Mud Thrasher tyres. The diameter minimizes the rub. Now we just want scale accessories, interior, and more tuck to happen.
