Any chance that the pulling to one side your truck does is due to torque twist? |
You know, that is very possible. That frame may not be stiff enough for the power. I'll have to figure how to see if thats contributing.

You still got your Hellfire Jeff? I thought about it today. I was wondering if these would fit on the Savage XL. What do you think? They are the 17mm wide adapter for the hellfire.

Why do you call the ramps ten-eighty? Cost? |
Torque twist is like what occurs when a car with a stock rear end launches at a drag strip - usually the drivers side ass end rises up, and you get the one wheeled wonder burnout.
Yeah, I usually have a blast - the longer I go without breaking something, the harder I hit the ramps to see how far I can push it (I really think I should be more involved on the "Beat your truck forum").
You know, he may have been in Spokane then....I'll have to tell him he owes you a new system too. I thought twice about loaning him mine, but I know he's good for it if it breaks (Momma will open up the vault for that!!). His luck has been nothing but bad all around for a while. The FLM chassis we put on for him was a big improvement, but still battling that rear shock issue. He was really hitting the jump light yesterday because he was worried about breaking it again - and it still broke.
Yeah, I do have the Hellfire - I'll have to check that and see if it has those. I think the hellfire just saw its last hope slither away when I got that 8ight-T. It likely doesnt stand a chance of getting put to use for anything other than a parts donor.
FWIW, for the Novak doubters out there, in regards to speed, I had nothing on that emaxx yesterday (both on 4S).
Oh - Ten-Eighty is the brand name.
http://www.ten-eighty.com/Product_Detail.aspx?Id=490They are skate board launch ramps. I think I picked them up for about 20 bucks each on sale. Speaking of that, I need to head up to Joes today to see if they have any in their going out of business sale.
I still have that extra ESC is your in need of one.
