More parts today
Diff in the front
On the frame going to notch the frame after I get the bellcrank in
Stering and skids on
So there's enought room to run separate servos for the diff locks front and rear going to run it with one servos and add the other later on
There's even enough room to put the ROSS over the servos and the lid still fits with room to spare
Well that's all for tonight will post more when I get more done

Looking good bud. Nice build.
The Summit transmitter has a 3 way switch which locks both diffs,unlocks both diffs and locks the front diff. I assume it runs off one channel.
I suppose you could run each diff on it's own channel if you have a receiver with enough channels to do so. What Tx and Rx do you intend to use?
BTW, I have a Summit so if you need to, hit me up with any Summit related questions you might have for reference and what not.

Decided to run two steering servos and to run the diff locks off of two separate servoes so that I could lock the rear or front or both got the rear diff in, bolted on, the frame notched and shocks mounted motore mount and engine bolted on
And put the ol t-maxx body on just to see
I think I'm going with this chevy body 67-72 prolly in white and black tho
More tomorow going to finish up the rx box and will post pics of how I mounted the servo in it

Cut down some old revo 3.3 outer shafts to fit with the slayer arms and going to use them for sender shafts to I also cut the groove so that I could keep the dust boots they look really short but there still longer then the front senter shaft that came in a revo 2.5
Hey I got a traxxas revo 3.3 and I'm having a problem with it it will run and stuff but when I give it throttle it will barley move but motor revs high please help
Check your clutch spring.

Make shure that your clutch shoes are installed correctly and free of dirt grees etc and your clutch bell spare gear mesh is correct use a peace of the thin notebook paper for setting it and like said above set you slipper clutch

Pile of my new parts
Finally a lil bit of revo for her lol
Tekno swaybars
Another 2065 micro servo
Was impressed with the fit and finish of the tekno swaybars
Black rims finished
Servos mounted
Used some fuel line and a-arm spacers for shims
Still loose in this pic fit was perfect one tighend
Ross installed on top
Cover fits perfectly over top
On the truck
Old stick battery sit where the lipo will be mounted fits really well
Body over the battery with plenty of room
Thinking about going with a full size like this http://www.amainhobbies.com/product...-Poly-Battery-w-Traxxas-Connector-74V-5000mAh its the same size as the one on the truck

you could use a smaller lipo and maybe strap it infront of the throttle servo if you dont run dual steering servos
