| TXT-1 Bearings?
I did a search and could not find anything about a full bearing kit for the TXT-1. Is there a kit made? if so a link would be appreciated. Thanks

Spend your $$ on other things first. Your truck will be going so slow that they will not greatly improve the performance like a better motor or gear reduction would. It would make the overall drive train slightly more efficient, but there are better things you can do with your $$... like give it to me! |

Here's my list of must have before the shrink-wrap comes off the box.... Bearings (not the cant's though, unless they've improved) Locked diffs (only for crawling) Kyosho 6.8mm balls and ball ends (good no matter what the intended purpose is) 9t Robinson (?) pinions (may have to grind the set screw to clear the spur) Those are what I would consider the most important first things, because everyone of them is a pain to have to go and do later (and I did 1 out of 4 when I built mine, 2 more later, links are next). You may find info out there about using SillyPutty to lock the diffs. That's what I did. While it was only .99cents for the egg, it was a waste. The unloaded tire still spins with the putty, though not as bad.. I'm doing a full JB lock next time. Oh yea, I need the money more than badger. I mean, just look at hi...uh her, uh... enhancements. Obviously, they're boutique! Pfft! 8O |
