thanks for the link! my LHS is tiny..and they have to order most of their stuff anyway...so ebay or internet is usually my source for stuff!

I just changed out the fluid in my shocks and am about to order stiffer "black" springs....think with all the weight i need some stiffer legs...

It makes a big difference.

I actually just ordered the 3 spring set for it - the black, tan and forget the other....was all of $13 shipped from Liquid R/C - now i can mix and match and see what works best...going black in the rear and tan in the front...

Rock Guards

I picked up some plexi-glass from the hardware store and made these rocks guards. It should stop the rocks/dirt that shoot from the front tires and prevent the axles from getting chewed up.(mine were already beat up)

 

[JettaManDan]

i have some plexi lying around...not a bad idea....

Did you see the bottom skid plate and rear bumper from T-Bone Racing? I wonder if they can all be used at once? I hope so because I want it.

I sent an email to TBR asking about using all 3. I also put out the idea of a one piece design, who knows.

Looks good GILU812. Is that a custom heatsink?

 

[GILU812]

Thanks! Got the heat sink from thetoyz.com. It has a real tight fit.

[JettaManDan]

gotta wash that biotch! lol!

nice....

i'm just waiting on my new charger to come in tomorrow...the POS LiPo charger i got with my batteries takes like 5 hours to get the 3s's done...ugh...i realized i have a few sets of wheels and tires laying around that will work on the MERV - namely a set of wheels i had for my Blackfoot might re-glue them and try them out for some hilarity...

 

[Drivinfast247]

Ill wash it once the snow starts to fall, Lol. The stock links and push rods were very worn out with lots of play. I'm gonna pick up a set of HR alum. axle carriers, because the stock plastic ones last about 3 weeks before they develop a bunch of slop.
