Easy RC Glacier Upgrades! Installed | Tested

This Easy RC Glacier has generated a lot of attention - folks seem to love this budget-oriented scale rig (https://amzn.to/3rm9Rmm)!!!

As typical, there are some upgrades we could do, to make it even better!
I started with a tire and wheel package:
RC4WD Scrambler Tires: https://amzn.to/3Td9aJc
TOPCAD beadlock wheels: https://amzn.to/3PQDnee
Just this change alone was a HUGE improvement for the truck.
The tires are a little large. If you want a slightly shorter tire, check this one out: https://amzn.to/3PNdEmU

I also tried these shocks: https://amzn.to/34T5qYP
But honestly, they don't bolt up easily, and the springs were too soft for how heavy this truck is.

Metal diff gears was my last part of this path.
This gear set from Horizon Hobby ended up being exactly what I needed: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175003832525...

Tools I specifically called out in the video:
MIP 0.050" driver: https://amzn.to/3I4MTqH
Blue loctite: https://amzn.to/3fpACRn
TA Green Slime: https://amzn.to/3fpACRn

Overall, these upgrades really helped this truck perform!
