| pede crawler
for those of you who dont know, I did make a pede crawler a while ago and for for some that remember me and the pede crawler, and are waiting to see the finished truck, and see some action pics. you cant because it failed horribly. somthing was worng with the way the links were set up and then the super rooster shorted out and caught fire. I toasted the rooster, 2 batts a futaba reciver, burnt up 2 servo wires and totally melted away my bronco body and this all went on while I was trying to crawl up a 15 foot rock. so down it went. bent 5 links snaped one in half. and ruiend a pede tranny. I have no pics of the truck after all this cuz i put the other tranny back in my pede and i am selling it, so i can get a tlt. hopfully that will go better.

Hey welcome back. Sorry for your loss of a crawler. Here's my advice though since you're getting a TLT... KEEP THE STAMPEDE! You have 4 shocks, a pede tranny and 2.2" tires. The only thing you are going to need when you get the TLT is a good chassis and some links and you'll be crawling. Don't get rid of the Pede which everyone pillages parts from any how. |
