Tom,

Check the pics. It came with an extra screw and nut to secure, but I'm sure you can find one if yours didnt come with it.

Its all about the BLUE RPM parts, makes the truck stand out and shows you have RPM parts ;-)

I have some A-ARMS Back on order... in the UK all RPM parts seem to be low stock!!!

they look good when there clean

But better when they're dirty

 

[nautcasprt6]

Not a problem.
I still need to order my RPM parts. Just need to decivde on color.

i think they do a smaller box which would then allow the fuel tank to be increased.

Managed to install the new A-Arms and wheels

They look mental

I meant with the BJ tires on and the old ones off next to it, but that will do.
Did you drive it yet? Hows the traction?

yea thats about 18 seconds into the video i show the difference.

havnt taken it out yet but do need to brake the engine in.

 

[REVO-5309]

id say you will have a poop ton of traction and yes once you've done over 10-15 tanks of fuel it starts hauling ass 40t spur is pretty good combo too give it a go. it does wheelies even easier
