Default MY NEW TXT-1

WHAT SHOULD BE THE FIRST THING I SHOULD BUY FOR IT.
I WAS THINKING BEARINGS? OR AN SUPER ROOSTER?
I ALREADY HAVE AFTER MARKET SHOCKS? I NEED TO KNOW WHAT U GUYS THINK.

Super Rooster..first....and do all the cheap stuff also like cut the chassis..narrow the wheels and spin it around so the batt sits in the front not the back...and make some new links and servo mounts..

You really don't need to buy anything. But good strong servo's. Don't waste your money on bearings. If you plan on crawling with it you won't be spining everything fast enough for bearings. look around and find the ten best mods article. Then see what mods you wanna do. I've made all plus a few. Don't worry about making irreversable mods I've never wanted to go back once.

I would add bearings. The bronze bushings not only wear out but they also wear grooves in the shafts. Look on Ebay, bearings are cheap.....

Super Rooster, stretch the wheelbase, lock the diffs, add good servos then go have fun!

And you can easily lengthen the wheelbase with the stock links. If you cut the chassis.
