Default Tamiya Trail Master

I got a look at one of these things in the hobby store yesterday. It was in the box and it was hard to see but it looks like the axles are similar to clod axles, with the motor and tranny on the diff. Can anyone confirm this? If so, this little truck may make a great project!

Digler.............Digler...................... There was a good 2 page long post about this truck..... :search:

Anyway, I believe its a 2WD truck, so there isn't a whole lot you can do with it.

I don't need to search!

I missed the post and thought there was nothing on it. Sorry to incoveniece you in any way.

I had a feeling it was 2wd. that sucks. I guess you could buy two rear axles?

Yup its 2wd

I on this truck it comes with a 280 size motor and u can't put in a bigger size motor like lathe motors because they wont fit
it comes rtr and the stock electronics suck
the servo has like no torque and the links suck also
i snapped the bottom front link mount
I have made a few modas to it

i locked the diff, took out 4 of the shocks because stock it comes with 8 and it was to stiff. and i cracked the body because the f=hard body like the clodbuster.
