gonna limit the rear shocks compression travel a lil bit...
just a lil to much for my taste ...@5-10mm of fuel tube should do the trick.


scale item's to order..

lightbars for roof and front
exo radiator
fuel cell
maybe some scale stuff in cab..cb radio,gps,fire ext..etc



i hope someone come's out with a better steering setup...
mine's got slop in it after our test runs at Superlift..

Couple other threads posted about the same thing. I wonder if it is an oversight or they designed it to run dry.

The gearbox runs dry just like the Comp Crawler did. The shift cogs wont stick as much or slip under hard shifting.

Your TH is coming along nicely!

Couple questions:

Exactly which 2800 mah battery are you running?

How is the trans working with grease in it?

I greased mine up after the first run I did, I greased it enough to give the gears a smooth look and then ran it up on my bench for five mines and checked the shifting out it was smooth and very quiet, I've since done six packs through it over various terrain shifting a lot and its been fine so far, I shall run a few more packs though it and possible strip it down, but I can't see how a reasonable amount of grease will do any harm always better to use a little lube

I greased mine as well, and has been holding up fine. It actually shifts quieter, there is still a click, but not as loud.

i had a dinky Rc fuel cell laying around..
so i cut and trimmed it a lil here and there.

it hides the battery a lil better i think..




had some Rc4wd 110mm coilover's..so i threw them under to see if i like the looks.

Im for shure gonna order some Rc4wd 110mm king shocks for it.

also found a set of links that would fit,so i swapped them out.

Fuel cell looks good out back. I have one from my IFS SCX just sitting here. I'll have to figure how to mount it.

The King shocks look good too. Just needs 2 more of them.

This is an awesome build. Having fun watching it progress. Great idea with the light stickers as well.
