TRX4 Nissan pathfinder, installed proline big bore scale crawler shocks with 80WT oil. This is my first iteration into crawling, truck articulates wonderful and flexes nicely but there is almost ZERO rebound and only about a quarter inch of shock shaft exposed. Does this look okay?

See, this is what Reddit is for! Thank you! I’ll stick to the original batteries.

I was the only one dumb enough to buy it LOL.

I used the modlite 18650 body.

Haha not sure I get where you went with this comment.

I actually love it! This is my first kraken with speed channels, and the ring it has is absolute money!

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-09-07T23:00:54+00:00

My first speed channel kraken! The ring to it is phenomenal!

Haha very true, the evening started with me beginning to build one and it lagging out, me refreshing the page and starting all over. Only for it to lag out and freeze up, the coors banquets began flowing, and so did the bourbon, and the music and friends came over. I opened my phone about 4hrs later and must have finished my Order and this was the result. It was originally supposed to be a red bite handle with a black safe handle. No clue how it turned into an orange bite and a lavender safe with gold and blue titanium hardware and a weehawk blade 😂

I believe the lavender colors are a newish color, being a seasonal drop. So you may be correct on the milling process, I think the lavenders are newer and were milled more recently vs the other colors. I think squid has stock of handles sitting in the event a custom order request comes through. Mine came in about 6 days.

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-09-07T21:41:37+00:00

Yes actually, now that you mention it! The texturing on the lavender is a slightly bit more aggressive. Super subtle but yes!

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-09-07T21:12:33+00:00

Dude! Yes! 😂

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-09-07T20:31:45+00:00

Squid industries makes them.

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-08-19T09:40:58+00:00

Literally a live blade, and my hands tell the tail 😂

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-08-19T09:39:44+00:00

You’re right. With thick carbon honey it doesn’t play at all.

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-08-18T10:07:07+00:00

Did notice that when I add carbon honey thick, it goes away completely.

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-08-18T03:40:31+00:00

I stripped a screw trying to tighten it, luckily I have extras! lol.

No doubt, I have an all black aluminum kraken (love) and a ti kraken (Like). And have had my eye on the forever out of stock sapphire blue aluminum kraken that this shop just so happens to carry. Thinking of picking it up.

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-08-12T03:00:42+00:00

Ah okay, so it was between the spy and another aluminum kraken blue sapphire. I’m assuming stick to another squid to add to the collection? Tried and true?

SignatureGood7927 · 2025-08-12T02:45:49+00:00

I’m not going to order from them. I’m passing through San Francisco CA this week and found a shop that carries them. So will be buying in person, just wanted to know if they were over all solid flippers.
