1. Those front and rear drive lines are long.. How did you do that (It looks like to cut up a bunch of 3905 drivelines and made one long one ??) just and FYI If you ever need custom t – bones made up just PM Jordan.. He’ll hook you up with his guy who did his..

2. I think the 3905 Trans is rated @ 6s Max so at least you know your limitations there are

3. What diffs are you using ??? the stock 3905 ones or will you be installing these ?? http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...RO_DIFF&cat=17

4. I'm assuming that you want some large tires for it so here a link to some 23mm hubs. Or use 17 mm like Paralyzed motioned below. http://www.impaktrc.com/advanced_sea...0e44341af7ef3f

5. I have no idea on the type of tire sorry but Ryo-James will know!!! He’s building a killer 5th scale too here is his thread if you wanted to see how he’s doing it?? http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16158

6. Two 3s 5000 lipo’s should work great, but you will need a MMM V3 or a MGM controller / ESC try here: http://www.rc-monster.com/brushlesscontrollers.php

7. lipo’s here: http://www.rc-monster.com/batteries.php or here: https://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/...idProduct=6350

8. You’ll need a good strong servo so I’d go with JR 8711 440 oz or the Airtronics @ 423 oz both digital, metal gear ect..

That’s about all I can think of now sorry!.. OOo 7k in the front diffs and 3-5k in the rear is what oil i use in my trucks..

Hope that helps and have a great weekend

Shaun.



P.S.
Welcome to the forum!

You are an Ace
Thank you ! and HUGE Thanks to your Awesome Feedback and the links, that is really great.

1. they are Revo's cut and used 2 to get the length. outer, innner, outer inner outer to trans
Thank you for the name of where to get stronger ones . I saw those in jordans build.
2. the trans is an old emaxx not 3905, but I like the Laydown option of the Xray b808 diff.
3. diffs are stock with spools. should I go back to Diffs? maybe use Ofna Diffs. cant afford the Hotboddies right now, I was laid off my 10yr job a few months ago and finding another job has been tough.
4.5. I'll check that out.
6. Cant afford a new ESC right now, but thank you for your input.
7. my Mamba max can only handle two 2s lipo, but I will look into those as I will Always Progress in this build as money will allow.
8.Servo will be a Airtronics 400oz or a Hitec 5955 that I have

Thank so much again . You are the man !
like to read your builds
