I also said screw it and ditched the sliders, and then trimmed the rockers at the bottom of the body. Blessed silence from body rub and a good bit more clearance. I just did not care for how low and far out the RTR sliders were. I think the body actually cuts a better line now too.

I think I've got the 1080 officially dialed in now too. Rig just feels great and I'm still very surprised and impressed with what this little truck can do nearly bone stock.

Edit: wish I could post some freak'n video I took. Tried to email it to my youtube account but my Yahoo email account says the file size is too big.

So bummed. The wheels I ordered for the Sporto don't clear the C-Hubs / portals. Looks like she'll keep the LockedUpRC wheels I stole off the Truggy and the Truggy will get the new ones. Oh well, it all works out.

Charged my brand new 6000mAh LiPo, trying out the Goldbat brand from Amazon - got my TRX-to-Deans adapter drop-shipped to my front door today! Heading out for several laps around the business park behind my complex, there's some dirt hills, no real crawling terrain - but as I want to detail paint my silver body before really hittin' the hard stuff, that's cool with me. Gonna be bone stock except for SSD bumpers & hexes and the wheels and tires this run, Chanquish 2.2" with RC4WD Dune T/A tires for maximum pavement action and light dirt.

Also, gonna be able to do some video, as I have my Traxxas smartphone transmitter mount installed - too cool, no more one-handed driving!

We added a trx4 bronco to the collection. It was the boys bday present and even built a small indoor coarse for him to play on. Summer is coming one day and we can hit the trails with the defender and bronco.

Finally received my Traxxas Link module.., no gauges are working. Is this an app issue or possibly because my servo is wired straight from my bec?

So I have made a little modification to the back rack, hate or like it made the rear lot lighter plus I prefer the look of an open bed with only front cabin rack and sides on the bed...just a little trim at the top lol
Also added lcg battery tray from bowhouse.

As for shock oil I run softest spring and 30 weight oil in the lifted one in my other 17.5 cos I find with no oil they rebound to fast and bounce.
