Gorillamaxx and Mike are awsome! - 08.05.2005, 11:46 AM

Hey i just recieved my gorillamaxx chassis and g3 suspension and i love it. Mike thanks for the fast shipping as always and thanks also for talking to me on the phone about a month ago and helping me decide what to get. It took me a while to get it but i have it now and love it, i am very happy that i took your advice.

Hey cool, i actually got it yesterday and stayed up late and tested it and it rocks. There is a lot of ways to adjust the suspension and i like how light the truck is now with all gorillamaxx stuff, although i really can't call it an e-maxx anymore. The whole suspension setup was very easy and quick, and quality of parts are great. Well i hope you can get out soon and test your pro3 suspension, i am very curious to hear your thoughts.

How does the type III integy suspension perform? I'm looking into it (as well as the pro-line suspension), I just wanted to know how strong and durable it is. Thanks

Well dud have not got to run it yet. Batts on charge and dinner about ready. I put the real test on it this weekend. Me and the brother is going to thrash and bash some this weekend. I have to get back to you on how tough and how it does. Hopefully i won't break nothing and be happy with it. I like it so far. It took a pile of slop out of my suspension.


Peace!

Wal-mart. It is over in the auto motive section. They have some in the auto parts stores as well. I think it give the truck a nice touch. Got the idea of of the truck on the home page. So you have to thank mike and who truck it is.

we not far apart then. What kind of bulks and stuff you running? I running the fastlane right now. Going to swap them out. I like them just stepping up to the 7.5 rears. Going to put me some blue bulkheads to match suspension.

@coolhand;

You can't upgrade only the back with the 7.5 diff, it's another gearing ratio, you need to do both, front and rear..
