Been away for a while but back with a vengence( kinda) I get torn between to many hobbies. Been working on some airplanes for spring and doing some flying indoors:003:
Sporting a new look for the Emaxx. I wimped out on the hybrid bulks and went cheap and picked up the 3.3 grey ones. I got the revo cups for the shocks to set on which gives me the clearance I need over the sliders/3.3 upper arms(thanks Serum). I did spring for the FL shock towers and that really helped running the powerstroke shocks. The stock towers compressed the shocks to much and would'nt allow the truck to bottom, only the shocks would bottom out, leaving the skids 1/2" off the ground. Finally got some real tires, proline mashers on hpi wheels and the Excursion body from hotbodies. I was dissapointed with the this body as the holes were drilled a little off and the antenna hole is on the wrong side. I also picked up some new slipper pegs and the MGT spring like Procharged suggested. Finally got it together tonight and went to the park. After 10 minutes I snapped a center shaft(2nd time) so I guess its time for some real center shafts. Any word on procharge's slipper and the Mamba monster max?
On another note I'm looking for the "stiff" spring set for the powerstrokes, looks like its discontinued from most sources, any Ideas? What weight oil should I run to accomodate 3-5' jumps? I think I got 30w in them now which don't seem to do much.
See ya, J.
