im running stock ofna shocks... i did get to run it outside today and i dunno what is has in the center diff but it aint good enough this thing doesnt take off worth a crap...center unloads before the front can even bounce up a little, i usually shoot for being able to barely lift the front wheels an inch or so before the diff unloads (this usually gives the truck a excellent jump or lurch forward and really accelerates fast without being to much power to the rear.)


so i guess its time to tear the front and center diff out, other than those two nothing popped out as something odvious that needed changing. right away.

Looks clean.
 
Glad to see the little guy found a good home! I'm just going to stick with 8th scale.

hey fill me in evan, whats in the shocks? diffs? id like to know so i have something to base my changes off of.

haha found the problem why it was seemingly so slow the first couple runs.....the center diff was dry it had a tiny bit of grease but definetly no oil....so i filled it with 7k and WOW its a little beast now, but i already broke something....

well i guess it doesnt count againist the truck's durability in my opinion but i hit a tree dead on about 6 feet up doing about 30 off a jump.....the front bumper braces broke, it took a few serious tumbles, besides the tree, hit a cinder block and sent the truck into a 540 spin on the ground, hit a pallet in the air, best one was when i hit the same tre agian off my big jump but instead of going straight into it i was mid blackflip and chassis slapped the tree,it did a flip off and actaully drove away........

tough little truck, im impressed so far, now i need to clean up around my little track (quit hitting crap) and i needed to gear it back down to a 14 or 15 tooth instead of the 17 be 40+ on a 40 foot long track is STUPID FAST.
