I have the Pro-Trac set up on this. I was racing it in the S C Mod class. John if you want it its yours. Very CHEEP! Just sold my Traxxas Platinum Edtion. Wish i knew you were interested. Still got my LOSI 4x4, LOSI stock & Traxxas stock. Thinking of racing again new outside track in Lake of the Hills 40 min. from my house. I used to race there every Wed. night & on Sat. morning. Kind of miss my racing buddies, alot of good guys up there. Love to crawl but the crawling seen seems to be a little slow as far as people being interested. I thought it was the next biggest thing in R C. Don't get me wrong I am not backing out of Crawling. I just wish there were more people involved and thats just IMO.

FYI, that is for the 2WD not the 4WD.

I think RPM is top of the line and that was one of the first mods that i would do but the Pro-Trac Arms are just as strong because i can testify to that due to the fact that i was running a 7.5 brushless system in it that was way over powered for track use ( but thats how i rolled) people thought i was crazy but anyway the arms stood up tp the abuse.

I didn't know there was a set for the 4WD Slash. What would be the difference in A-Arms?

ive never broken anything rpm...

i dunno about the new traxxas or anybody elses plastics, but in the old days you could boil the plastic to up the water content in the nylon, which made the nylon less brittle, but it also made it a little more bendy. good for bashing but not so good for racing imo.

Because one is a 4WD and the other a 2WD? Front part #s are completely different and the a-arms are just designed differently

5807 Front Exploded View (Slash VXL, with TQi 2.4GHz radio) | traxxas.com

Same with the rear.

Messing around with SHOWTIME found shocks from E-Savage, put on Rovers, and put Sam back in the drivers seat. Waiting for Gmade XD Piggyback Shocks along with crome steering wheel with Axail Interior set.
Trey still interested in a Shotgun & Rack? FREE!!!!! it's worth about .25c.

Ive been pretty lazy with the playing with of the R/C but, pretty active with the building of the R/C.. I feel like I'm a little out of the loop. Is anything going on? Maybe this sunday we can do a GTG.. Do some crawling, scaling, go-fasting, and maybe grab a brewski.

A strong maybe. The Wraith is all together and could probably have the Mog and TF2 back together by then.
