pls say I'm right... lol

btw cool truck!

well as you can see my truck isn't really in working order right now lol, last pics see there is no screws holding the front and rear plates to the chassis braces, and the servos are not hooked up no fuel lines or air filter and the EZ-start wires are not there. I am in the process of rebuilding it and putting new stuff on. that engine is toast anyways. I am gonna turn it into a water skipper engine for a misc. peice truck I am building for a water skipper. The Fantom FR 18 engine with the works pipe is going in this truck pictured.

Dude you know Dennis from Southwest hobbies right? Love him or hate him he's a super experienced rc guy and the man knows how to tune an engine properly. He actually just left SW to work for a Jewlery Manufacturing co. Anyway, HIs wife paints bodies and I got to c some of her custom work on a Hummer H1 and Hummer H2 body and they where just sweet, sweet looking. I wish I had pics.

loooks good man. but for those of u that dont have the cash to go right out and buy all that RPM stuff, wait until u break the part before u replace it with a aftermarket part. i would ditch that ez-start and go to a pull start in my opinion. sweet body too. take some zip-ties and organize those wires, make it look neater, and keep those wires out of moving parts.

OK i didn't buy anything till I broke it. as you can see I have broken alot of stuff! and as stated before the truck is not complete yet so the wires and stuff are kinda a mess. I had a pull start on it but it didn't work so I put another one (new) on and it still didn't work so I put the EZ start back on and that wouldn't turn the motor over either. So I said F it and haven't gotten the FR18 to put in yet so I left it like that.

Good advice,

For those that don't have deep pockets. Ti hingpins will make a HUGE difference with not breaking A-arms.
