bulkhead ? Broken new T-maxx

[.21Rc10GT]

Lundsford racing has a kit for the t-maxx. They also have a kit with the hingepins and the 1/8th scale turnbuckle upgrade.. like $50, but its worth it... i have it.

I have a set of Ti hingepins....they use E-clips and I hate those little bastards....always fall out.....PM me Maxxmaster and let me know what U got to trade....
Back on topic....I use the integy bulks too on my mutant maxx and they take some serious abuse....I watched the thing cartwheel about 40-50 ft after catching a sprinkler head at WOT in the field.....man I was sweating...it was the first day I had it out after the big redesigning......I agree w/ Zandor on the GA bulks though....if you want rocket height jumps and no easy landings thos GA 7075s will do it......the whole truck could be gone but those will still be there.....I've also found the Fastlane or Atomic Bulkless systems to rock but very heavy...not for stock engines.....Speed costs money....how fast can you afford to go?

I have the Fastlane bulkless but not for the buggy diffs, they are for the regular. They are pretty light. I would even say they are close to what stock is for weight.

Yeah, sounds like mine... except I was lucky, it went straight into a wall, instead of sideways, so I just broke all the bumper screws. I bought a failsafe and it's rad... I run it till it's out of range all the time, and it just stops until I walk closer to it. I don't worry about fresh batteries, just take some with you when you run it.

However, I shattered my front bulkheads and a arms, bent hinge pins, and broke shock caps when I let a friend drive it... I remember asking him to avoid the lamp post... A failsafe is not a solution to clumsy friends. Good luck! My aluminum bulkheads and RPM a arms are working beutifully. Just looking for some Titanium hinge pins now.... anyone?

I had almost the EXACT same thing happened to me, My T-Maxx casually took off at 38 mph and the only thing in its path was a stone wall 100 ft. away, yeah I winced alright! 2 new front bulkheads, new bumper, new bumper mount, new a arms and $100 later i discovered that i might need a failsafe. lol My problem was that the rx antenna wire got pinched and broke, so you might want to check the rx antenna at the rubber grommet in the rx box, if you find that it is pinched or broken check out this thread:
