well well well. lookit what i drug out today..
the big rocks been out of comission for a long time. i needed a new wheel hub pin for the wheel hex, finally ordered the part. but as per my norm i ordered the wrong size lol
fortuanately i ordered them too long and was able to just cut the 15mm pin down to a 12mm pin and got the hex mnounted solid again..
now i can't find my tires. lolol good times i found 1 of them so the other 3 should be around here somewhere lol
wish me luck. but I'm probab;ly gonna end up ordering a set of pre mounted tires for it

Life hack: You can make the pins from old drill bit shanks. Just cut off the length required.

I had been looking at the Vorteks....dropping hints for Father's Day

But now I am looking at the Big Rock, too

I'm a bit late, I know. Anyways...

This is a 3s truck?

I'm thinking its a longer wheelbase but otherwise twin to my Granite BLX 3s.

I put wider suspension on mine from the 223 Granite when I rebuilt it just recently.

Its WAY more drivable now. It used to roll a lot, couldn't put its power to the ground.

Does this one tip over all the time or does it stay on its feet pretty well?

its been so long since I've been able to drive it.... i think it was pretty stable, i kept making it do backflips off of a tree when i broke it
a wider stance would probably help it tho no doubt, depending on what i break next this could be an upgrade in my future

I use Roll pins as substitute hub pins 5/64x1/2" works great and because there tension pins their sprung oversize fit tight no need for set screw its redneck but works well
