Finally decided to throw the interior in.

Are your trailing arm mount bolts bent from impact?

That would do it

Also it looks from the picture that you are using the outside of the tab of the axle mounts only. If not going all the way through and using both tabs it can create an unevenness.

As mentioned I would try using the wraith skid, and move the trailing arms in between the two tabs.

The interior looks great!

3x30mm bolts on the axle allow me to run the trailing arms outboard and still have just enough length to go through the second tab

Just means you'll have to be rougher on the other side now to even it up.

Put a Protek 170t servo I had for another rig into this rig. Love the servo much faster and more torque. Only down side is it isn't waterproof. Overkill for a 1.9 rig as well.




Oh yeah my bumper is a little straighter now.

I decided to test out a strap to hold down the spare. It stayed on just fine so think im gonna get a rc4wd rachet strap to hold it in place better.



Also got the matching motor plate and Holmes extended outputs.



Installed.



I had to cut down a center shaft and epoxied it to one female end. I'll probably have to cut the other female end a little bit. We will see once it's dry.



Also got a new torsion bar for the sway bars and they line up good now. Other one I cut too short.

So I need some opinions. I'm going Brushless on this rig. I was originally set on a Revolver S Stubby but now I can't decide. Either the Revolver S Stubby or a Pro4 HD 3000kv? Thoughts?

Get both, I've got both...well my revolver is standard size. And I'm also one of the lucky guys that ordered that particular transmission case, I like your style.

I'm using a 3300kv Pro4, and I'm pretty happy with it. I think it really depends on what gearing you plan to run with it tho. Now to go fix my MMP that died last night..

Without re-reading this whole thread, what's the primary role for this machine? I don't have any experience with the revolver, but I certainly do with the ROC412 3100kV, PRO4 4000kV and the HH BL 540. As of now, I'm going to have to say the HH is my favourite; so much bottom end torque.

Got a BLE Pro coming for my rig. Can't wait to check it out.

I don't have any experience with any brushless motors other than the HH 540. That being said, comparing prices I think the HH is a no brainer.

My HH motor crawls awesome, and rips pretty hard when I full throttle it.

Sorry, I was talking about the Trailmaster brushless pro 540 - 3100kv

This one...
