The Mojave V3 came alive once I sorted the suspension.

My review is enthusiastic about the tuned truck, but candid about the starting point. Our standard V3 felt too soft and sat too high for the way I wanted to drive, especially when turning on grippy ground.

• Start with stance and suspension. Ride height, droop, spring choice and damping were the core of the changes. I wanted less excessive movement and a more composed truck.
• Add width with a plan. The optional M2C hubs were part of our tested setup. I checked the resulting wheel position and body clearance as part of the project.
• Separate tuning from the extra options. The video also shows cooling, steering and tire changes. The suspension work was my first priority, rather than treating every option as essential.

Parts from our tuned V3: M2C 3500 +5mm hubs for the wider stance; Tekno TKR6081 rear springs for the rear suspension setup; Reefs RAW500 servo as the separate steering option.

My take: I recommend the Mojave V3 in a properly tuned form. Once we developed the setup for our terrain, it became a much more satisfying truck that I wanted to keep driving.

The video reviews the new Mojave 6S V3 and demonstrates a modified test truck. The listed factory truck does not include the optional hubs, springs, fan setup, servo or alternative tires shown. Setup choices depend on the surface and should follow the model's adjustment and fitment guidance.
