Alright, here's one of my babies. This truck started out life as a normal fcx24 power wagon. If you remember when the Max Smasher first launched availibility was rough so I figured I'll just build it myself and boy did I.

Started out with a set of JConcepts Mt wheels and Renegades tires. Then it snowballed as I wanted an absolutely bonkers mini basher. This Truck has been one of those builds where its broken every time I take it out for about 8 months, thats kinda how I ended up here. I want to do monster truck things and I had to build a super robust truck to do so (At least without shelling out the dough for an LMT)

This truck wheelies on command from half throttle if it hooks, jumps like a tank, and is just a chaotic handful to drive.

Not to mention the shelf appeal, I display all of my micros on my desk and this thing isn't that bad to look at.

All of this being said I do need some advice. Suspension for this truck has been a battle, the injora shocks while I'm sure they're great for crawlers really struggle in this use case.
Anything with m2 mounting will be fine, but I'm looking for a very good long travel oil filled micro shock to get a bit more jumping performance out of this truck.
