Piece of advice. Find a place that makes their own jewelry. They are often half the price of chain stores, and provide better service. And remember too, nobody will remember how much you spent on engagement/wedding. Cheaper is often happier and easier for the families to manage. Congrats and hope it works out for you. |
Go to Costco or SAMs Club. They have nice rings. Not to sound cheap, but check some pawn shops. They sometimes have awesome rings for a fair price. Yer lovely doesn't have to know. No one does! Trust me!
Silver or platinum, princess cut. Cant go wrong with that! Both are in style. Then get yerself a Titanium ring. Nice! Congrats! J |
thanks guys!
now any interests in this beast of a LST? |

I took a brand new roll bar and had some fun! I cut both side feet,and rotated them 180 and added 2 1/2" to the rear.It now faces toward the rear of the truck.I'll add more pix as i get the truck back together.

Looks awesome Bryan. I'd love to see pictures of it mounted.
On another note.. I received the vehicle yesterday. Radio hasn't arrived yet, but no biggie as I used my Spektrum stuff anyway. I gave everything a quick once-over and took a maiden voyage. A bit disappointing at first. Handeling wasn't as good as the converted Muggy I have. Upon further inspection, I noticed that one of the wheels wasn't balanced, and both front shock shafts were damaged. Ah well.. such is life sometime.. right? I modded some wheels to fit, straightened the shock shafts as best I could (going to order some new ones). Finally, I've installed a fan/heatsink on the 152o motor. Not necessarily because it was needed, but the heatsink actually acts as a support for the long motor when turned so that the fins touch the chassis top plate. And the blue color matches the shock bodies and front/rear diff covers. I'm getting happier now.. Tomorrow I'll take it for a spin along with my Muggy (which has an Arc 80mm motor) and compare the two. Should be fun! |
That is one heck of a crash nitrostarter had with that truck :lol:
Those are 5 mm thick shock shafts. |
Yeah, it's been flogged pretty good.
|
|
Arc 80mm ? What motor is that?
|
http://www.lightflightrc.com/ I'm running the 36-75-1.
Overall, a good choice for the price. Throws my Muggy with oversized tires around pretty easily. Extreme conditions (running in tall grass, larger tires, geared for 45 mph) will push temps up in the 160-170 range. I don't normally bash that way and think the motor would do very well for a larger sized vehicle given normal circumstances. |
My apologies on that shock shaft... I honestly didn't notice that! I guess I need to go through everything closer, just wasn't expecting a sale that quick considering I didn't really post it.
The radio and rear motor clamp are on the way, probably be there Monday... The 1520 is a real beast. It powers the XXL quite easily! Temps were always in check. |
The radio and motor clamp arrived yesterday. I've run the truck already with my Spektrum stuff. I'll be honest that I'm a bit dissapointed about the shocks and condition the vehicle arrived, for what I paid for it. But, ya live and learn..
