Default Jus got my txt-1!

Hey guys i just got my txt-1! and its SWEET!!!!
i bought it used off of my buddie that drove it 3 times and sat it on the shelf so its brand new! all i got to do is put my ecs and servo in and my reciver, then im set! ill have some pics up tomorrow!
the first thing i did when i got home was rip those stabulizers off and it articulates way more!

just wondering what can i do to make it more like a rock crawler and perform better?

theres no fomes in the tires, should i pick some up or no? like the tires are not even glued lol thats how much he used it.

well any sujestions will be great to trun this beast into a rock crawling machine!!!!

thanks

pick up some SNOT from RCrockgear to lock the diffs and for other mods-

lower CG and ride hieght, raise tranny and cut chassis, narrow wheels and get a JEEP body!

Click the word "Top" in the left nav bar.
Its the second most read story.

The leaning is torque twist from having a drive shafted vehicle, you can reduce it with mods...keep reading this site for answers.
