i hadnt thought about that yet, but am open to suggestions from more knowledgeable people than me! I will say that so far the stock tires seem to do pretty well, but I havent went on any really rocky terrain yet.

| Re: the ultimate crawler king.....  the servo kit came today, I tossed it together with the factory servo to see if it would make any difference, and it does make it turn easier. tomorrow I will put in the traxxas servo and see what happens, but I do need to change the steering servo horn as its not the proper length now. |

Looks good, id use the short one because it allows you to utilize the servos torque more effeciently

| Re: the ultimate crawler king.....
ok, i cant tell too well, it looked like aluminum that reflected the flash  I am waiting on my parts to arrive for the rear steering, a reversing y-cable,servo,and bracket kit. Picked up an aluminum servo arm last night at the local r/c store |
