I'm sure it would be very difficult to make rc. It's fun just the way it is in my opinion. So far I have: Widened the stance and glued the tires Removed the shocks and springs Cut the whole steel sub chasis off Put staws on the drive belts Limitting straps for the front axle Weighted the tires (All of Jasons mods) It crawls rediculously good...especially compared to stock. |

I picked up a couple at Wal-Mart the other day. They are indeed fun. I plan on keeping one stock to use as a test subject and modding the heck out of one. I started my mods after about 5 minutes. Ain't that how it goes? I'm almost positive I'll have more in the future. These little suckers will get it. |

I also would like to find out what I need to turn one fully RC. It would be very cool to do and pretty cheap I bet. I got a full radio system that needs to be doing something. I am going to add you to my buddy list and I will talk to you later and see if you get any new info on what we need. | |

I got bored with mine and hacked it up. Took the motor/trans out of it, and attempted to make a winch out of it. I hooked it up to a 9v battery, spooled some wire on it, and it picked up a 3 pound tool off the ground pretty easily! Then I tried picking up my 9~ pound clod with it, and the gears started to strip and click. You may actually get it to work for a smaller, scale vehicle. How much does the typical TLT/2.2 crawler actually weigh? I don't see them at wal mart anymore, or else I'd get another and try again. |

are the belts from the differentials soft enough to add a 130 size motor to?

I'm surprized that no one's tried to mount the motors to the axles like a clod. These things are way top heavy.

| Re: You've got to see this and buy it!!!!
reason no one has done it...is because the motor/gearbox is kind of big...and will limit arcticulation...and you would need to cut and glue a belt to length...could be done...but very hard and strenuous...all for a 6 dollar truck...be different if i could control it more...
