I built a FLM maxx back in 2008 or so and sold it a long time ago. I wish I hadn't so I'm building another one.

This will soon have Mike's chassis on it, because I didn't do my homework before clicking the buy button. I've got UE UltraLites on the way and some Kyosho STRR diffs already converted to Traxxas stubs. I'm pretty sure the Hot Bodies shocks will require CVD's, but it's close. Kyosho springs are on the shocks, 74mm Blue. They seem up to the task but I need to stiffen the oil up a bit. I'm running the 1.3mm pistons in the front, and 1.4mm in the rear. I think I'll be putting the 1.3mm in the rear and going with 45 or 50wt oil. Anyways, here's the progress so far.
