You got this rebuilt quickly once you got all the parts together! It looks great!

Are those RPM parts still easy to find? Sounds like a smart upgrade!

Amain still sells the RPM parts i want they also sell a few other things i want for this truck. I still sooner or later have to rebuild the diffs and the shocks but for now i got the pillow ball boots replaced i tried to do the driveshaft boots but had a really hard time so i might wait until the stock axles fail then i might buy a new set of plastics or got with the metal ones.

Those boots are really thin. I ripped a few too.

Good thing the RPM stuff is still around! I really like their parts!

Hi Everyone, I just made this truck it's own media gallery here on RCTalk go check it out https://www.rctalk.com/forum/media/albums/cjs-traxxas-e-revo-1-0-brushless-edition-project.297/ if you want to see how this truck went from a dirty old beat up eBay truck to a mostly nice presentable example of an E-Revo Brushless Edition.

Today i got to run my E-Revo Brushless Edition 1.0 after last nights differential service and after realigning the dual stock servos it was pleasure and fun to drive also my 2 6,000Mah 3s packs lasted over half an hour and still had 11.8 - 11.9V before i put them on storage charge.

Thanks so much, This is a truck i've been wanting for a couple of years but finally managed to put the trigger on a decent one and it's cleaned up and restored real nicely so far.

Great looking ride even if it is obsolete! "Dual stock servos" kinda grabbed my attention. Interesting no doubt. Looked up the Traxxas breakdown and watched some Ultimate RC video to see what that was about. Anyhow, looks like fun!!

Yeah, Both his videos and this guy called Jason Perrin made me get this truck even though i was originally saving up for an X-Maxx Ultimate but don't worry that'll be my next RC or a Sledge who knows. But this truck has been very fun and it's held up so far after doing some long needed servicing to the diffs and shocks also recalibrating the esc to my radio and setting up the dual servos. This truck has been awesome.
