Sa-weet! That is a very dark blue. Looks good with the white decals. You guys are really tempting me to get one.

Do it! The kit is on the pricey side but worth every penny, the scale transmission, transfer case, axles, and rims make this a no brainer for any scale RC enthusiast.

I don't know about the red springs because I haven't tried them. But I have tried this, put your other leafs ON TOP of the main leaf. It will provide some support to the main leaf plus give you a softer ride as compared to the leafs placed under the main leaf.

I saw this in the Tips and Tricks.

Nice video and a nice big yard to run your truck in, truck looks very good.

Out on the trail today! I flipped the leaf springs around (small and medium on top of the big one) and that added a bunch of flex and the truck preformed even better! I must of had them on backwards?

Your truck looks right at home on the beach. Some rocks and the sand to play on.

A little update....

I painted the dash tan so it would stand out a bit more, and I did the shocks behind the steering Mod. I also wanted to show my leaf spring set up. Thanks
