Won't let me post pics, BB big block t Maxx build. I posted a thread not to long ago about doing one but as far as finding conversion kits I hit a dead end untill a guy reached out to me on a fourm on face book and hooked me up with a complete conversion kit and parts.

If you don't have revo spec diffs... they aren't going to last long at all with those tires on it. I gave up on my maxx way back then just because I couldn't keep diffs in the thing. Seemed like every other weekend, I was replacing a front or rear diff, and that was running small 3.2" chevron tires that barely get any grip!

Would be a good idea to get some spare cvd pins/rebuild kits on hand. The pins like to snap, then the cylinder falls out and if you don't catch it, the bone falls out and you lose it.

Really takes me back though seeing a BB maxx. Should be fun for a while!

Yea, I have a whole wack of parts from to racing max, only problem is I gotta track down replacement linkage, if a cup breaks or dog bone I'm screwed, it was complete chance I came across this dynamite kit, it's running actually great so far no issuses and those tires are nothing to the jumbo kongs I'm running on it now ?

Biggest issue I've had is clutch bell, I'm trying to get a savage flywheel and rrp hardened bell, I've already stripped down two completely against the rrp spur.

What chassis plate is that, is it carbon?

It is the dynamite .26 aluminum BB block kit

That thing looks crazy!

Back in the day, I ran a RC Solutions 1M tool steel spur and OFNA hardened 1M bell. Found out the hard way that a hardened spur does not work well with a standard bell. Made it half a tank before sparks came flying out the side of the truck and it look like I took a grinder to the bell.

The spur I was running:

Probably can't find that around anymore.

That's gnarly damage, I

I was lucky mine just flattened out the teeth.
