Thanks! It's a blast to drive with how close the wheels are to the ends. Heat soaked the axial 27t so she needs a motor swap. Probably gonna be a freebie Novak 20t I have. I like brushed "hero" motors so I can get it dirty. |

I put together a motor that works; 55t integy lathe motor can with an older epic 27t com. Seems to run pretty cool with good pep. Ran for a pack and a half today before the stub axle I brazed the ball back onto finally let go. The ONE pic I snapped today  Sent from my fist full of wires. |

Broke the ball end off the stub axle so I shelled out for the xvd axles from rc4wd. Also accidentally smoked a motor.. Put in a team brood 19t... It's weak at low end but hasn't gotten really hot after an hour or so of running..   Sent from my fist full of wires. Last edited by elsewhere; 06-14-2014 at 07:13 PM. |

These yota axles are costing me a damned fortune... XVDs to replace broken stub axles Needs new knuckles and bushings And I just shelled out $35 for a freekin helical gear set cuz it stripped the day AFTER the comp... |

The HJ needed some love. Rebuilt the axles with some fresh lube and bearings. Also rebuilt the front end with a shackle reversal, a panhard bar, missing link style shackles, and new servo/ winch mounts. The bumper was beat to shit too so I made a new one.     Sent from my fist full of wires. |

Hey just picked one of these bodies myself. Favorite for sure! What diameter are those tires youre running? you wouldn't happen to have tlt axles you could compare your axles to. I plan on using tlt axles, humvee wheels and some rc4wd trail busters. Trying g to keep mine very stock looking
