Default New Bully owner

Just like the title says i jsut pick up a Bully from a member on here. Iam waiting on it to so up now but i have started colecting parts to begin the build. Here is what i have so far
Beelte juice chassis
Cast bully axles with v4 axles
two castle micro pro esc
3s lipos
hitec servo(cant remeber which one but 400 + oz
custom cut and shaved rovers
losi comp wheels
Now i still need a radio for this rig and i need motors,
not sure what links are coming in the deal. but i was thinking about ordering some new bull manchined axles so i could run cast up front and a manchined in the rear for my weight iam really tring to get away from weight in the wheels, Is ther anything iam missing or something i need theat would be better than what i already have?

You'll want to get some v6 front axles. Lots more steering and makes the front a little wider.

Eventually, yes, the V6 axles are nice. It also gets away from the stupid, "run a pack, check the wheel nuts". It may be me running OEM Berg aluminum rims, but the nuts always get loose.

As to a radio, I will suggest a hacked GT3B or GT3C. I'm running one in an XR-10 with dual ESC's.
Inexpensive radio, lots of support here.
You can get them new from LosiKid / OverKillRC.

Don't go cheap on the motors, you'll be much happier with some quality winds. V-6 shafts are a must if you want to turn decent. Best thing to do if you want to lose weight is get out the grinder, the drill, the file, and spend some time with them. Case mod and some delrin tubes is a fast way to get it down as well.

Good to see a new Bully owner on the block. Wish I had time to crawl mine, they've all been sitting for the past year.

Thanks guys for all the help. I was checking it out today. And the chassis is crap not even sure if it is for a bully and the links that came with it. Dont seem like they are the right for it. So that being said I need a good chassis and links. Any ideas

Make your own links and chassis, our hit up a used chassis on the for sale section of the site.

Welcome

I wish i had time to do that, Iam lucky if i have time to crawl. Plus iam fairly new to crawling and i have never made any bent links or a chassis so i would rather just buy a set up so i know its right the first time. And really i just dont have the time right know to do anything

Are you looking to go bodiless chassis? If so i have heard great things about the chaotic switch with ti links. Time is money tho 200 bucks Or make your own for much less
