| New user from Italy need little help :-)
My name is Fabrizio and I'm an italian new user, in my country the rockcrawling is not developed, the costs are high (in Italy the txt1 cost about 650$) and every parts are impossible to find but now I've see yours forum and for me is simply the best rc crawler site on the web! My crawler adventure is started in december when is arrived the TLT1 (can you see it at http://album.foto.virgilio.it/killernow/590663) but now I've found my love: TXT1... I've read same post before start my mods and many thanks for the idea (kona-joe, Dirk, rckjeep...), this is my actually (unfinished) set-up: cutted chassis and trasmission relocated, locked diff, progressive ecd shocks, custom estended links, custom steering links, rear servo plate (not definitive), chassis skid (another is ready to bolt), lexan battery plate, esc plate, pro-line body and jugger wheels; for the electronics: esc lrp truck digital, hitec pro-car radio, servos: front Hitec 1/4, post.Hitec hs5945mg (all without servo saver), Graupner speed 600 motor with Graupner 2.8:1 reduction, 11.1V Li-Po 2000mAh for motor and 6V kan 1050mAh for servos. W/b is about 15.75-16.5" and center clerance is 4-5.25". Old photo http://album.foto.virgilio.it/krawlernow/821507/ Next addiction: e-maxx tranny, revo shaft (grrrr only one is arrived...), alu spool, alu hubs and decent rims-tires. The truck work well and compare to stock is another planet, stable and have great torque (speed is about 4mph) I want only more clerance in the axles and lower c.g.with emaxx trasmission... And now........................ THE QUESTIONS hehehe: For the wheels I've think this 2 combo and I need Yours opinion: a) Maximizer beadlock w/off-set (only the alu units have off-set? I like the plastic one but I'm not sure if they have off-set...) + TTR emaxx wheel adaptor or rc inet + bft tires (these tires can fit on maximizer rims without any modification? I think yes but not sure). b) Rpm stablemaxx rims + TTR emaxx wheel adaptor or rc inet + narrowed Jumbo kong... The kongs are a big problem for the txt axle? (in my 1:1 Jeep TJ with stupid bf mud 32" I've broke ring/pinion and shaft... suck dana!!!) What e/t-maxx rims have the the high off-set? For now is all... PS sorry for the language but is best I can :-) |

I was looking around your photo albums and i must say, that is some nice work you have done there... Keep it up and i know i speak for other here when i say that we would love to keep seeing more of your customer works. wait a minute... if its noon here (denver colorado) then does that mean that its like 1am or so there? This proves it.... people all around the world know that Shafties are the way to go.... |
