Build Thread Duratrax maximum mt restoration/ rebuild update....

[STONER RC]

So I got all the parts cleaned. I got the aluminum all polished up. And now started rebuilding the truck. I truly love wrenching on these RCs. As it's like therapy to me very relaxing. Turn on tune and jam out..
So got it to a roller today. Going to order new electronics next Fri or maybe earlier who knows..But for now I'm happy with the way its starting to look...here are some pics so far...

Man, I bet it feels like having a new kit, because it sure looks like one. Great job bro. Love it!

 

[STONER RC]

Yeah it pretty much is going to be a new RC. By time I'm done with it. Now that I have the correct pieces of it. And not finish nails and sheetrock screws. will get some new electronics this week and tires. Since I took those off my MERV. I love the building/wrenching part of this hobby. I could due this every day.
THANKS GUYS I APPRECIATE IT..

I need to try a find a harden steel spur for this RC. The original has missing teeth.. 48p 52T but will go either way on the Teeth. I can get different size bells from 13 up to 20 I believe but can't find any spurs for it. Any one know of any spur gear that would work on the Duratrax maximum mt part # DTXC9402 spur gear 52T.... Dought this will last past one run....any ideas guys

Seems they are out there, but this one sold in July

Id look up other duratrax kits and see if any of their spurs look like that one
