My retinas just esploded.

I like those tires.

What's going on with the shocks there?

Looks pretty sweet! That RPM center skid will save your brake discs. I busted a couple of mine before I bought a skid for it. Haven't had an issue since.

Thanks for the effort! I like chevron style tires, but I don't care for the overall mass of these. At least I can tick them off my list of possibles.

Any chance you can post a photo of those tires next to a stocker? Those pro-line 40's? What rims?

At those temps... "break stuff" is definitely something you will be doing! lol Stinks here too. Got up to 55F on Monday, sunny and 55F. All weekend, 15F or less. Can't wait for warmer weather...

A buddy of mine did that with his, stretched and lowered it. Made his own tvp's. I think he's using XL center axles now. What are you using?

My latest, just a mostly stock X with BP diffs:

That's a nice looking rig. With all that room behind the engine, I'd get a more flowing header vs the HPI one. Would let your engine breath better.

What tank is that? Looks huge!

Really nice walk through you made there. What are you going to run for diffs now? Obviously, the CEN's don't even hold up for you. Gear it taller maybe so there's less torque? I went through your 1/5 shock mod and didn't notice what you used for stand offs. Do those come with the shocks? I'd...

How do you fill the fuel tank? Hole in the body or do you take it off to fill it? Got a photo of the body on the truck? Few upgrades for mine. Before: Now (new bits: LRP28S3, MGT tank, 3-speed trans): Hopefully begin break-in tomorrow!

Just an FYI, pull starts are repairable. Might save waiting next time when you snap a cord. Once you do it a few times, you can take one apart, clean the recoil spring, rewind it and have it back together in 20 minutes. I've done it a "few" times. ;)

Not even a close fit with stock towers? I hate running alloy towers... puts too much stress on everything else on roof landings.

Nope. It was fine. Just mangled the cage.

They work great for square roof top landings. Front or rear end landings tweak them pretty bad. Especially when you land off kilter on the front or rear. Twists them up like a pretzel. However, if you notice, nothing on the truck is damaged other than the cage... but, the cage new was $130. The...

Don't land hard on your tail, or it will look like this: Especially since it's longer from center to rear without support.
