I hope they do, the single speed tranny stock is awesome, single motor mount and gear cover is cool, even though I dont use gear covers, and the plat will stay with 2 because I might put the titians in to screw around in water or something
Just buy an MGM ESC, and leave the rest stock (well, brushless motor too of course). Then, just seal up some Lipo's and you will have a brushless truck to screw around in water...

Well going from CC mamba, MM, the MMM will be waterproof also..... The motor can get screwed

But no MGM stuff, dont want it, want CC, and the combo, as the car, lipos, and the combo is dang spendy, and I need racing stuff also......

So I would use the brushed crap, or sell it on flea bay, I duno

Alright, more questions

I cant decide, wing, or no wing?

I have some new unused 40's road rage, so I think those are good for street, if not, I will break out the tire sauce, and sauce the, up, and I will be good

Body size, are we thinking, like the revo 3.3 sorta size?

How crappy are the smaller hexes? If the tires are always cranked down (and I always use thread lock, lol so I havent lost a wheel nut in a long time, well on my bashers lol......

on the old E, or the T whatever, how are the stock shocks? Junk, or?

Personally I've never stripped a 14mm hex unless the nut loosened. So as long as you thread lock it and make sure its tight, you won't have to worry (exception is if you are running like 9000 watts of power or something thats completely overkill..)

No, just a MMM combo

Do I need the 8, or just the 4 coil shocks?

What does it cost for what I need?

Towerhobbies has the by-pass shocks for $47.99 a pair, but the actual coil shocks are discontinued. I would have thought though that you need both types to get the best results?....

I was looking around at my rc stuff, and saw my revo

I could use the revo shocks on the maxx, but im worried about suspension travel, and how low the truck will be........ Would they be good, or no?


And also, past the crappy stock bulks, what else breaks? Most of the stuff has been beefed up, and it looks like the only thing left to upgrade is the bulks

EDIT

What about the combo bulks? Will they make the diffs last longer, or are they just for weight?

They won't fit the new diffs I don't think. They will increase strength though. Less flex...
