Man that paint looks awesome. What kind is it? Do you just spray it on to existing pieces? Really digging this look.

Rear shocks imo are "cheap". They are really smooth but leak alot.
Swapped them out for these. They're 3mm shorter(rodends) than stockers. But are treaded and just as smooth! Just have to pick up some lighter fluid for them. They have 55wt in them as of now. Im gonna try 30-35wt.

Those are some of the best shocks ever, which length did you use? I'm assuming they are about 4" eye to eye...Losi calls them 1.2"...iirc based off the shock shaft length. Great looking Twammer too!

I would assume that 1.2'' is referring to the travel of the shock?

Btw, awesome TH, gotta get me one, one day hopefully

Looking at yours inspires me to do more with mine. Already done a good rear tyre mount mod that lets it open up without any detachement.
Also waiting on upgrades in the mail but seeing yours I see I need/want more aesthetic items to add.

Power to the HAMMER

P.S love the paint job
