RPM truck tracks

[shizzon]

Im intersted in getting the truetrack set for my e-revo to complement my new set of RPM front a-arms. Im a very hard basher and am looking for durability, but it doesnt hurt that its ligher either. Will these be an improvement durability wise over the stock rears?

I had RPM rear arms on my Revo and they are definitely stronger than the stock ones. I only broke two stock arms, so the stock ones really aren't that weak, but the RPM ones allow a little more flex, so they will not break as easily.

IMO yes....they are flexible and if they break are not that expensive and they are preset with a very good angle slightly inward ...I am very happy with mine

I just bought a set. Hopefully if my diff cups show up tomorrow, I should be up and running by Sunday night. I'm doing a full swap out since I blew the rear diff last weekend. Switching to a 3.3 chassis, doing the Revo Spec Slipper change, new rear arms, FINALLY got myself some P2 and P3 rockers (been running P1 for 3 years)plus a few other things that I cant remember.

The true track rear setup is a big improvement to me. I never liked the rear toelink, and have bent quite a few. Rpm stuff is great, and generally does not break easily. Only issue I see is the addition of e-clips that hold the lower hinge pin in, I hate e-clips. But they have not come off mine yet.

E-clips blow! This is one of the reasons I gave up on titanium hinge pins on my maxx trucks. That and the fact that lunsford uses low grade titanium that bends.

However being a slightly different setup in regards to the true tracks, I am sure that it helps.

I have no experience with the true track arms or rpm arms on a revo period, but I haven't seen this note on here yet. The RPM arms shouldn't be run with CVD's. The arms flex alot and bend the shafts, if going to RPM arms stay with the stock slider shafts.

Yes i have heard the same thing about RPM arms with CVD's, but as of right now i dont plan on getting any so i it should be alright.

Echo E-Revo on the flexing - I took mine RPM off...

I still bend the shafts on the CVD's if I really go bashing... But I guess not much a a surprise with tree climbing...

FYI Mulchers are great tree climbers - I was getting about 6ft up!

[Semi Pro]

the rpms are great but the truck handles much better with the extended rear arms

if you are just going to bash then buy the rpm kit, if you want to race i would stay away from the true track kit

[tedo]

I run the true tracks. The fixed toe is nice, however to get a -1.5 camber, the pivot balls are barely threaded into the top arm.

Anyone else experience this?

[VintageMA]

I got the E-Revo purely for bashing and would never race with it. I got the RPM true-trak kit rear and regular a-arms front and I have been very happy with the performance. For my regular driving around on grass, dirt and asphalt I have found there to be better overall steering and tracking - much less prone to flipping over as well.

I have a set of True-trak's I'm going to throw on my maxx once I get my bulks...Hopefully they turn out good.
