How much do you want to spend? Currie's will cost you $300+ and Axial's $25.


Curries... RC4WD Trex... and all other scale axles

I would like to spend some money maybe around 150-200, but im on a little bit of tight budget. and I've seen plastic axles snap and take out a lot of stuff!

If I just bought a new scx10 rtr. This is the list of upgrades I would do first and in this order.

1 CC BEC & water proof electronics
2 steel drive shaft
3 pinion gear (I like 18T on stock rig)
4 steel transmission gears
5 steering servo & steering linkage
6 tires & wheels (bead locks)
7 suspension linkage
8 what ever breaks next lol
