Does this banner at Amain Hobbies help at all :whistle:

So which body style should I get?

FWIW, Tower just dropped their price to $675, so with the $60 off coupon, it's barely more than amain. It's even more appealing with the 3 payment plan on tower.

When I get one I am planning on getting the Bullydog since it has red beadlocks..

I didn't need to know this.. How much is all of the nitro stuff off it worth? maybe then I can justify it...

I'm figuring maybe $150...and that's counting the radio gear too. I just don't see those motors going for much on eBay.

i sold all my nitro stuff rx/tx motor servos on ebay for about $170 shipped

Nice Work :intello:

quick update but on horizonhobby.com they have the prepainted AE and lucas oil trucks bodies FS as well as an unpainted one.....also they have the wheels pieces (not fully assembled) adn you can buy them individually but it will be more expensive than just buying a complete set of wheels....also they have the body cages and mud flaps/guards on sale as well....

Do you think they will ever offer the SC8 as a roller?

I hope they offer the sc8 as a roller....b/c then i'm getting another one for sure:yes:....anyways another quick update...i wasn't really happy with the receiver placement on the sc8 using the RCM servo/receiver mount. I wanted the receiver to have better protection...soooooo...i did this:

i used the new traxxas sealed receiver box and used one of the existing mounting holes and secured it through the mud guard with a locknut on the inside.....it looks pretty cool....AND i also coated all the electronics (inside and outside) with this stuff http://www.rz-50.com/ its RZ-50 and is supposed to be a non-conductive dry film lubricant....and when you spray it on its dries clear:yes:....anyways, just another way to further mud/water/dirt proof you sc8
:yes:

Hey guys just found this coming soon Associated SC8/RC8/RC8T conversion set up.Dang and I just about have my SC8 conversion done.:whip::diablo:

it looks pretty similar to mine....i have my MMM mounted behind the battery tray (losi's 8ight-e battery tray) and i've mounted my receiver next to the steering servo as well (but its the traxxas water-proof case :yes: ) so in a way i think the conversion i did is just as good AND a lot cheaper :yes:

Anyone know how much the sc8/rc8/rc8t conversion will be going for?

the 3 payment plan on tower is cool but if you use amain and you can use the paypal pay later offer and beable to pay as you want over a 90 day period, thats what i did with my Rc8T i ordered last week, used the %10 off and some store credit points to get the Rc8t and 3 cans of paint for 520 shipped. Hard deal to beat and plus it give me plenty of time to get all my stuff i was selling sold and shipped and sorted out, then i can pay for the truck at the first of the year after i get my holiday bonus and check for the two weeks im working during christmas break. all works out nicley because other wise id have the truck and no electronics, this way i went ahead and got everything all at once.

If I were to go that route, it would save me a whole $13.58 over Tower. My rewards points aren't redeemable yet, so that doesn't help either. Also, if I add in $25 more with a tower order (to make it $699.90+), I can get $70 off instead of $60 off.

FWIW: I've experienced that amain ships faster than tower.
