The only video I have found that shows a shock exchange and not an oil filling video. Awesome and thanks for sharing some knowledge

[gatorrcgames]

Good video, man. I am watching this video while I am putting on the treal brass upgrades on my K5.

[andrewrichey]

Back watching again, got my sliders today I was wanting to see how you had them mounted up. Also got my silver K5 Today sure is beautiful

[Gibsonlife]

Bro that he'll you come off of forget not to flip over you got it tuned really good

[Gibsonlife]

I love the white picket fence in the background

[BigFootPistonCup]

Taking off that top really helps it from tipping..!!

[andrewrichey]

[mikemangiameli]

[endomusicprojects]

Thanks for the tips! I ll mount my injora shocks on my Blazer K5 soon.

[adamskirc]

Cool, I'm definitely waiting for the interior video.👍

[toddanderson]

Great idea about mounting the electronics on the sliders! I wish I could use sliders but my K5 body will be sharing the chassis with the smasher and power wagon bodies.

[andrewrichey]

Back watching again Matt, just used your link to get the sliders for my K5 I really been digging on my K5’s Can’t wait to get the silver one

[Gibsonlife]

You can send that right up here we need it terribly bad

[audiosoil]

Had a buddy back in the 90s that had the exact same truck we all used to go dogging in. The fms got me foaming at the mouth to get my hands on. Have been holding out to see how the after market is catering to it! Your vids are a huge help! Keep em coming brother!

[GBsRC]

Awesome vid man Damn n Dang !! that K5 is an Impressive Crawler considering how stock it still is your work buddy Keep On Rockin the RC World !!

[ghostinng]

I didn't even notice that it had an interior. That's kinda cool.

[stefan-norge]

Already an interior, looks amazing 👍🏻 What a nice rig. And thanks for your tipps and tricks 👍🏻😃

[clintdyson]

Thanks for the info. And I wasn't sure if I would like the black k5 and was going to get myself the white and orange. My son wants the brown. After checking yours out. I might go with the black now.

[OGMikey.]

Sometimes the like button just isnt enough. Great video. Cant wait for the interior video.
