I'm itching to get this bad boy out! C'mon spring!
It should be a rowdy animal. Not a speed racer, but if it would do 60mph I'll be happy
You got a nice truck.

Wicked looking truck, I used to have a v1 Sledge with the non belted tires kept it fully stock and had zero issues with it although i ended up trading it for a really beat up basket case of an X-Maxx that i later sold to start saving up for an Ultimate.
Here's some pics of it, Does anyone think i should get another one or a new Kraton 6s EXB v6 or 7 someday?

woooo, she looks fast n tuff
A stock Sledge is a freak truck with a 17t pinion. If I had to choose between a Kraton and a Sledge my Kraton would end up on eBay. My Kraton is sitting on the shelf now waiting for diff parts, yet again.
My Sledge is 8s compatible, that's something I would never try with a 1/8th Kraton.

She was a great truck when i had her, But again i traded her for a basket case X-Maxx that i ended up selling to help save up for my future X-Maxx which will be the latest Ultimate model. I might have to look into another Sledge someday judging how my first one was and from what @Ramp addict experienced.
