traxxas rustler

I currently am running a 2wd Slash VXL with a Rustler chassis and an STRC LCG (low center of gravity) kit. I recently noticed the rear end of my Slash is very heavy and causing the car to tip backwards. I have the blue Traxxas LCG chassis, but I am not sure if swapping chassis will change how...

my cars. all at once!

I've seen this asked a couple of times so I thought I'd share how I put a 2 speed in my Traxxas Rustler. Some background: This was my first nitro RC. I've been working on cars all my life but my background is IT and Engineering. I got the stadium truck from my dad. He bought it probably close...

Hey Nitro R.C. lovers! Today I bring you guys the "Frankenstein Rustler" which was made out of 2 used cars (Rustler and Jato) and a few new parts.. I wanted it to look different than the regular Rustler (grey upper chassis) and since the Jato's tranny is black I decided to black out as much as...

I'm going to be selling my Rustler 4x4 vxl with Castle 4s system capable of 78+ mph and many other upgrades. But it could use (optionally) various parts like shock shafts, driveshaft rebuild kit (cv joints by traxxas) a few bearings, chassis. It will come with many extras like very good...

Well, I had a driveshaft that kept popping off when doing even small jumps. U joint would pull apart right by the tranny on slip clutch side. It never broke but was worn where it was pulling out. I moved the camber link to too hole, got new tires and did not have anymore issues. Doing a speed...

Does anyone know the size of the yoke screw for the rustler 4x4 VXL

I’m selling a few extra used Traxxas and hop up parts that fir a 2wd Traxxas Rustler electric RC. Everything is in working condition. First up is a Traxxas 2WD Rustler Servo Weight that is 286 Grams with screws. Condition is lightly used. $22.00 shipped. Next is an Eco Power WP110T waterproof...

Up for sale is a brand new Rustler Nitro slider for sale. My intention was to actually build a mid motor mounted electric conversion with this but my son and I have lost interest and we just have too many cars so this is up for sale. This comes with everything you see in the pictures and as...

The fiberglass chassis is gone. The MIP CVD drive shafts are swapped. The hubs are replaced with new FLM hardware. I converted the hubs to the Jato setup years ago. It limited wheel selection. He's coming along.

I bought my first hobby grade RTR in 2006, the Traxxas Rustler XL10. It's been through hell and back too many times to mention. I've upgraded it many times over the years. There are actually no original pieces left on it but it still has that Rusty soul. Now he gets the thorough makeover that he...

G'day! Has anyone swapped the Hex-type wheel mounts from a Rustler onto a Bandit and was it relatively easy? Thanks!

I have an old Rustler XL-5 that my son has become comfortable enough with that I'd like to upgrade the motor and REC to make it more interesting. I live in East Texas so it can get ridiculously hot. I'm not looking to set land speed records. A legitimate 40mph is sufficient. My primary...

I have a traxxas rustler with a Radient esc and a 9 turn 4300kv ezrun brushless motor. I run a 2s lipo, and I am having trouble with the throttle. It wont go full speed for more than about 2 seconds at a time. I'm not sure what it is, i dont use it that much, but it would be nice for it to work...

I am interested in purchasing a Nitro Car. I currently have an Associated SC10RS. I race at a local indoor track.

I was wondering what aftermarket fuel caps will fit the rustler 75cc tank. I'd like to get a nice shiny gold one. Also was wondering what larger tanks could be fit to the truck. I'll change tank if needed, but really just want a better sealing cap than the stock one. Thanks in advance

Hey guys I was looking to expand the fuel tank on my rusty from this dinky little one it comes with. After searching all I could find was some forum posts from 2006 with broken link and parts I can't find anywhere anymore. Has anyone done a fuel tank expansion on their Rustler lately and if so...

Hey guys been wanting to get into Nitro RC almost my whole life and I finally bit the bullet and did it! I had some questions though. After doing a lot of reading and research I saw that people were saying the Traxxas fuel was too oily and not to run it. It seemed that Byron fuel was the top...
