I got this in a trade but the kid could not tell me much about it. Can you?

I can tell you it's an Ofna. Probably 9.5 based, judging by the front uppers and lowers, and the servo plate. I'll do some more digging to see what else I can find.

On a side note, if it is a 9.5, ditch the kingpin front hubs, call Tim @ NitroHouse, and tell him you need the PBS conversion. The kingpin hubs are junk, and you will break them fast.

Thanks. So is this a good truck? It has a SH PT21-P3 motor I just had it taken off in the truck cause I need to get new bearings for the clutch bell
 
The truck is good, but like I said, switch to the pivot ball suspension in the front. Call Tim, tell him what you need, and what it's for, and he should be able to set you up. It should run about $70 or so for the kit. The cast hubs that are on there now are junk. I had one break after two laps around the track, and the one on the opposite side stripped the threads out after a couple more laps. With the PBS conversion, I was cartwheeling without and damage.
 
I have been looking at some shock towers for the pirate and the dominator and they are not the same shape as whats on mine. Also I don't know if this helps but it has quad disc brakes. Most of the trucks I have seen when trying to look for one like this only have dual disc.

Looking at the pictures you posted, I'm still somewhat unsure as to what exactly you have. I do think some of the parts have been changed, which doesn't help.
 
Definitely looks like that one doesn't it. Even has the #8 sticker on the receiver box.

Very OFNA'ish in it's design though. Wonder if it holds up like an OFNA?
