Sorry for your loss, John.

Do you have any particular parts in mind? Or are you just leaving it up to the forum for suggestions, with respect to parts selection?

Well i want to get my ground clarence higher. I was thinking of bigger shocks. And anything u gouys can think of to make my truck better than a stock 1 it has a single speed tranny.Do you reccomend a 2 speed tranny? And it has a torq .12 engine.



All suggestions are welcome and appreciated thank you ... John

I aswell am sorry to hear of the loss and know what your going threw.

I wouldnt recomend 2 speeds due to how they mess upa lot when bashing hard and strip gears. Others may disagree with me, but I've seen my cousin buy too many gears for his MT and his Savage to want one for bashing. I would recomend beefy shocks, shock towers, springs, shock oil, and maybe a new engine if your wanting to go that deep into it. What about some new tire and wheel combos to go with your new bigger shocks. Shocks,Springs,Wheels and Tires make a huge combo. You can tell a difrence right away if you put all them on at one time.

Sure i have about 200$ to spend what kind of shock engine and tires and rims do u reccomend for a stadium truck thank you

oh yeah wat kind of shock towers i want somthing really big to be like a stadium truck on steroids ok

Well, all things are personal preference. Is this truck for bash or are you plan on racing this truck? Engines - WASP .18 Turbo, EPIC .18, Phantom 15. I'm not familiar with Stadium trucks and engine sizes so I took the liberty of doing a search for you. If it is common to put on BB engine I'd think a GS Storm RTR engine (B01 .21 BB) I have a Storm and they have nice power and are pretty easy to tune and maintain. Here is what the search showed up. Look threw those and maybe come to a conclusion. Engines are gonna be in a 100 to 200 range killing your spending money so beware of that. As far as the other parts go, there are ALOT of suppliers out there. I did a few searches and here are some webpages that I could find or think of. Duratrax Hop Ups
Tower Hobbies
Wild Hobbies
Horizon Hobbies
An AOL search listing
