Default Two MTX-1's

So i bought my son and me MTX-1's and i can say im so so impressed. I haven't driven mine yet but my son has about an hour run time so far on his. Hes built some jumps out back nothing crazy, about 1.5' tall and three foot gaps. Truck is handling them so so but he already ripped the front tie rod out of the adjuster, really a piss poor design actually. And all four shocks are leaking HORRIBLY! Rear two are almost bone dry, were gonna rebuild them tomorrow with Axial or Tamiya orings i have laying around. Also trying to find heavier springs for the coil overs, were currently running six cell packs and the weight from the battery alone is causing rear shocks to be bottomed out

So basically the truck is ok, like any other RTR, just needs a few little upgrades. Wish the brushless was still available but for now the 30T isnt bad in it. My six cell packs are like 5 years old and going bad, was gonna stop tomorrow and see about switching to lipo batteries finally
