Build details and parts list: 

Built on a TRX4 sport high trail for full time 4x4: https://traxxas.com/products/models/electric/trx-4-sport-high-trail 

Standard front axle for TRX4 rear steering can be found on eBay fully assembled. See Traxxas.com for parts exploded view to build one.

Front and rear brass diff covers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BRBH3F61?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title 

Rear servo mounting bracket for high trail model: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DSQ416F?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title 

front and rear servos need to be pretty powerful, we use these. Powerful quiet brushless customizable: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HH5V9VB?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 

The remote and receiver we use for our rigs: https://a.co/d/03oSxAIA

Optional with the standard TRX4 remote. Refere to the rear stuttering video to help with this part. Steering selector cable: https://a.co/d/35S0hqL 

These are used in place of the steering rod to adjust the trim manually. You won't be able to adjust it with the remote for front and back if using the original remote: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CKVZZFXT?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 

Use these to extend the studs for the wheels, Use a double lock nut on every wheel before putting the covers on so they don't slip back: https://www.ebay.com/itm/114836168761?var=414987682611 

JConcepts for Firestorm tires, these tires are blue compound in all the videos of this build. https://jconcepts.net/Firestorm--Monster-Truck-Tire_p_809.html

JConcepts for Tribute wheels: https://jconcepts.net/tribute-26-x-36-monster-truck-wheel

The Bigfoot 1 stampede body used: https://traxxas.com/3660x-bigfoot-no-1-clear-clipless-body

The clipless mounting bracket for the Bigfoot 1 body: https://traxxas.com/3747-bigfoot-no-1-clipless-body-support-w-latches

The clipless mounting points are from the BF8 model. They work better to mount on to the TRX4 platform if you want to do this without posts and R clips: https://traxxas.com/9040-bigfoot-4x4-clipless-body-mounts-fr

Most of our truck bodies are 13" wheelbase, This one is around 10" and the frame will have to be modified,the rear axle will need to be moved up with shorter rear links. This is what is used: https://a.co/d/08tO3D8X

Use metallic blue PS 16 by Tamiya for the front half: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BN6JFG?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title 

Use Black PS 5 for the rear of the body: https://a.co/d/00saP1rI

Use Tamiya 86013 PS 13 Gold for the extremely light sparkles in the rear side mixed with the black:https://a.co/d/06UtUcca

Use TAMIYA Spray Lacquer TS-84 Metallic Gold for the tribute wheels and Traxxas Bigfoot 1 grill: https://a.co/d/0e1RXKYe

These shock towers will replace the fenders and floor panels that come with the TRX4 sport:https://a.co/d/0htfZuYv

This build requires quite a significant amount of modifications, but well worth it if you love the gold 50th truck. If you get another set of wheels and tires that are white or silver, you can change and do diffrent Bigfoot setups usint the same body style painted differently.
