Had the Typhon and the mjx truck out at the park today , a tundra of ice and swamp , lots of fun ! Broke an upper suspension arm on the mjx 1608. Dynamite little truck on 3s . Supposed to be insanely durable, leave it to me to break. Something. lol

We have another day or 2 of thaw to get clear like that.
I still need to order my Granite parts so I can run on this mess too! 🤣
Looks like a fun place to run! 😁😎👍
 
It looks like a beautiful spot if not for the nitwit table commentary! The place looks pretty huge and flat. Like my head. 😐
My yard is a swamp right now! Still covered with snow in lots of spots but the mud is so slippery!!! 🤣

It’s a nice spot but lots of ice, swamp and trees. Not a good combination as I slid my little truck into a tree and busted a shock tower where the upper suspension arm connects .
 
So it was my shock tower I broke where the upper suspension arm connects, no big deal , could’ve been a lot worse, my rear tire clipped a tree at about 40 mph !. I ordered a front and rear aluminum shock tower tax’s in and shipped $10.50 CAD so like $2 USD ! 😂😂

I hope this tower works out for you! My luck with aluminum towers isn't great. They look amazing though. 😎
I hope you get some more run time in before all this thaws and have to go back to just boring grass!!! 🤣
