The "What did you buy today?" thread...

[Ramp addict]

Rear shock shafts, boots F/R, shock ends, and the steel balls that go with them. The truck doesn't look that bad but it's been driven hard for a while now. The more I take it apart the more there is to fix. My goal is to have it in prime driving condition in two weeks.

Went to the LHS to get some painting supplies. Picked up some liquid mask and lexan paint. Browsing their model trane stuff and looking at some scale accessories for the mini crawler course.

The owner showed me a new custom Trx4m 6x6 build that he just picked up. Crazy custom with nice parts. Weighs close to 20lbs. Supposedly the guy had over 1k in it.

He'll be looking to sell it so if anyone's interested i can check his asking price

 

[HPIguy]

It finally went on sale. We love our small one, it's just a bit too small. We will give it to the in laws. Should be here tomorrow.

ACER Racing:

6AL4V Aerospace Grade TiTanium Turnbuckles with LIFETIME warranty
M3x41mm (x1)
M4x60mm (x2)
M5x70mm (x4)

Amazon:

AideTek “BOXALL 48” small hardware storage container (x2)

Been running ACER for years, and they’re second to none IMO.. I forgot all about them until Lunsford close the doors a few years back. I run them exclusively in my buggies. Unfortunately they do not offer C-Hub truggy sizes.. I COULD run Mugen Seiki rod ends and outfit my Tekno’s with ‘em however.. -if my current truck turnbuckles ever give me an issue, I just may do that.

The AideTek storage boxes are a freaking GODSEND for my needs. I only grabbed a pair to give them the once over. They’re legit, so time for a second pair.

I'm glad you shared the AideTek storage boxes last time, I really like mine.

No problem at all brother! I’m glad you shared the same opinion, and they’re working well for you too!

Picked up a Traxxas accessory power supply and power tap at the LHS. Once I figure out not to integrate it, I'm hoping this will get my roof lights finally functioning on my Rovair.

 

[TeknoJ]

I wanted to try the cayote RS80 but, the 2s limitation doesn't work with the motor I will be using. This thing better steal the show.

 

[PonkyKong]

I usually buy HW. Castle. Been into these lately. Going to get their FOC setup once I build something for it. Bluetooth and a metal case. Run ice cold. Got 2 now. On sale from Ali. Both were under 80 CDN delivered. Have to find the sale price one.

Another project car

When I built the flatbed, I knew eventually I would purchase a wrecker boom and winch.
The wife looked at it and said, you should buy the boom and finish the truck. So, I did.
I'll add duels someday.
It's going on this...

 

[Warby]

Bought myself a new toy. Its surprisingly good.

I may be 45 but still young at heart.

Ain't nothing wrong with having a little fun.
