I do bench test all new electronics before install anything in the car.

After the test i do spray All electronics with Corro X HD and grease all
bearings extra to waterproof everything, and also to avoud corrosion.
all fans, connectors, open the servo spray, esc, receiver, receiver box.
EVERYTHING. I also use always dusty motors covering, to avoid stones in fans and driveline. Extra greasing bearings is awsome, to avoid need change them in long time, also they keeps clean and nice.
These things is Game Changer.

i did put little more off 20million silicone oil in centerdiff. 1 million in front, and 500k rear, and also change stock oils to better in shocks, 100sct lighter
so i can have the springs more loaded so they dont turn around loose
all oil weights in cst

Car runs superb nice, Smooth. Cool Motor ESC Tamps only 40c 104fahrenheit after hard driving 9500mah

Love this cheap servo from banggood real 1/5 jumbo, alot power, perfect speed, strong.
Many have these and are 100% happy. Know one guy who have it 1year already bashing hard.
35dollar only LOL
spray some corro x hd inside and some marine grease after, and you have 100% waterproof servo
that can be submerged totally

that wheelie bar/handle bar is awsome to carry this heavy huge rig easy. cheap from banggood

After hard bashing. still clean and nice :) Highly recommend this Dusty Motor cover 5xl universal
Perfect fit to Large scale Kratons. took me only 5 minutes install.
Use break cleaning on plastic sideguards befor glue the velcro., easy peasy.
Also at rear end on chassie, clean it with brake cleaner.

Night before first run i did also Silicone spray and wipe next day the whole rig, avoid batter connectors only.

Products i highly recommend
