Default Finally decided to get a TF2

Ive been looking at these things for a while, always had interest in one but never wanted to fork out the money for one. Well I traded into this one so I didnt pass it up.

It came with a Integy 35t motor, sidewinder 3 and futaba servos. All I needed to add was a radio system. I also got a blazer body that I sold off and a set of mickey thompson classic lock wheels with irox on them. Decided to run the MT's and mud thrashers until I decide on a set of tires.

That's a nice pick-up on a pickup. Believe it or not, the stock Mud Thrashers work great with stock foams as all-around trailing and light to moderate crawling tires. Enjoy it and keep us posted on what you do with it.

Nice clean looking rig, I have a high interest in one of these leaf sprung beauties too, but, like you am not willing to fork over that kinda money for a brand new one. Waiting for a used one to come my way thats clean as this one for a decent price.

So far all I have done is.... since it came with only red springs, i ordered a set of Tamiya f350 springs and put the two helper springs on, and ordered steel drive shafts and different shocks.

Made a roll bar today, not sure if I will keep this one or make another slightly different one. Next will be sliders.

15 minutes into a trail run and the damn savox servo died. No reason no hard spills just quit.
