I'll post a video later. Switched to an 18t, which might be the biggest I can fit in this truck without seriously modifying where the motor mounts or getting a smaller spur

How are you liking the Gorgon @Notorious J?
It's a hoot Woodie. The truck takes a beating and just keeps going. From the skatepark to the runway, it just keeps pulling. Tires are a bit of a let down as they have no foams, but I believe that was intentional to absorb some of the roll of this very high center of gravity machine. Now the body on the other hand, well that's just a turd. As can be expected, this truck rolls alot. The body wasn't designed well to take the impacts. A lot of people of Facebook and Instagram are saying the same thing. Gonna be a lot of long nights re-taping the inside, just to keep it going. I bought this truck with the intention of modifying and mashing it repeatedly. At the price, it seemed like a no brainer. So far, I've already got my moneys worth.
 
Question.. how did you fit the Hoons.??
In the rear, I swapped T3S axles and hexes, easy peesy. The T3 axles don't fit the front, so I just added the hex over the existing axles. I had to grind down the back of the hex about 2mm so that the slot for the pin would line up. Since I'm using the stock axle, I also don't have the screw that normally holds the pin in place. I slid in the pin then put the tire on. That's how I made it work.
