My top five must do mods..... 1. Move the battery to the front of the truck. 2. VP steering upgrade 3. Tires, I like the Pro-Line swampers 4. Softer springs, I like Losi golds on axial aluminum shocks. 5. Move the tail lights into the body for a more scale look. |

What do you think needs to be done? Looks like you've done most of the obvious. Fix what needs to be fixed for your driving style. Forget what everyone else is doing just to be doing. Be you.

thanks, but the idea was to read what ohters think and are doing so after reading up on that, perhaps borrow some ups or even remake them to fit me =) Quote "tires would be my top priority.

HB Rovers white dot compound are great comp crawler tire. The R35 Ripsaws are pretty good all around though. Sounds like you've pretty much got it covered already. Now you can do the personalization touches with some aeshetics mods? |
