Thanks, you can wear down a carbon towers pretty quickly on buggies and truggies with out protection. It is very strong material but not abrasive resistant.

Made some new carbon shock towers. Rear has skid protection. Both have aluminum shock mounting surfaces.

Yeah, they aren't bad right? Very tough, I suppose if I left it 4s and just geared it up I wouldn't have broken anything. Kind of wanted an epidemic too but just have too many mts...

Some other observations; the talion hub carriers, axles and hexes will almost work. Drive shafts are a bit too long. Tried swapping shafts and there is too much play with the force shaft in the arrma axle. Could cut it and take a 1/4" out and reweld it but seemed like too much work for now...

They must have quit selling them because of the new 4s arrmas. I love my Muckraker, it’s a freakin laser beam with the blx system, I recently broke a cvd, wing and bent up the rear tower. Making a set of carbon fiber towers in a few days, I’ll update when ever I get them done... Here’s a wing...

If you are creative you will find parts for a while. I don’t break much on mine and run it 6s with the arrma blx system. The diffs are really tuff and have deep cut spiral input and ring gears. I’m still running the cheap servo in mine which I should get rid of but can not kill it. Hope you...

If you are talking about parts for the muckraker horizon has pretty much everything...

No CNC's here lol. Voltage hobbies has nothing to worry about. When my mill and lathe were new the US flag had 48 stars...I call my shop Glacier Machine, I take forever to make anything...

Update on breakages, bent my rear tower today and broke front cvd. Thankfully I found my cvd and fixed it. Just had to make a new pin. For the tower I just removed it and beat it straight with a dead blow hammer and put it back on. Good to go. Will need a new body soon, this one is pretty...

I bet it would, i did not know about the DuraTrax vehicle being similar so I bought my bumper undrilled. If the Muckraker bumper is left on it might be a little tight.

I’ve been running this with the blx setup with my mods on 6s for a few runs with weather permitting. It is a lot of fun, maybe my favorite at the moment. No breakages yet due to the relative light weight, not even the wing. It’s a wheelie machine and does backflips on 6s no problem and just...

I am a little concerned with that as well. However with a little research I’ve found many parts from Duratrax fit this. They don’t make any cars any more yet their product lives on...

I ran a 16tooth pinion with no trouble. Comes with 13 and 15. You may be able to go higher just keep an eye on temps. Turning radius is not great, combination of small hinge area on arms, arm design(flexy) and cheap servo. Mine is far better after I put my mods into it. They are found in my...

Tough call there. I don’t own any of the 3s arrmas. They seem really tough, plugand play but they are 90% plastic. This truggy when on sale for $250 (215 with the coupon) you have a tunable 3 diff all metal drive train, aluminum chassis, shock towers, and shocks and will run 4s with a 100amp...

Made front and rear braces and rear support. Also put a BLX system in it. It is the fastest car a own, absolute nut case. Very please how this all worked out. I see some more aluminum suspension mounts being made and a motor/diff top plate in the future.

tower coupon code 011P2 is $35 of of $230 or more so if it works $215. Not a bad deal.

They will take the coupon as well. At least it worked back in October when they were on sale. I wish the parts went on sale again too. I got a full set of shocks for 20 bucks.

Looks like the Force Rc stuff is on clearance at Tower. I guess they are done, too bad... I'm in process of making braces for this as the plastic ones are clapped out. Too flimsy and once they are flexed a couple hundred times they are permanently bent. Also throwing in a BLX system I have as...

I think you will like it. The truck handles pretty good with the stock front end. I just like to tinker and have the equipment in the garage so it doesn’t cost anything. The battery connectors are fine I just have all xt90 on all my other stuff. Good luck with it.

It’s similar in design to all the other 3diff truggies. Closest thing we will get to a 4s Kraton. If they would have come up with a stiffer front end these would be hard to beat for $ on 4s.
