Going to start slowly upgrading my 3S Big Rock over the next few months. Trying to break the cost up over time. I really want to go all out on this thing. So far my only upgrade was TRM10E wheels off of a redcat, awesome looking wheels with 14mm hexes.
I have Senton 6S front and rear shocks on the way to replace the stock plastic ones. I also have 3s typhon A Arms and turn buckles on the way. Trying to get a wider stance to reduce body rub. Thought about the hub extensions but i don't really need new tires, I think i can get the same feel with the typhon arms. (What shock oil should I run in the senton shocks when i get them?)
Next I will be looking at a servo (Maybe PowerHD? ideas welcome!), i noticed the stock has a hard time holding a fully turned position under load. Probably will do a HR servo saver and bell crank while I'm in there.
I would like the new metal drive shafts from arrma, the metal diff gears, and metal spur in time.
I plan on keeping the stock motor and ESC as I am happy with its speed and performance, going to add a motor fan to help with temps in the summer months.
I will probably end up doing the GPM shock towers to get more mounting positions.
At some point i may change hexes to 17mm, if i do this i would like to try the LP backflip tires off of the 4s outcast!
I think this could end up being a pretty sick build. I love this truck and its performance, just looking to make it unique.
Sorry for the lengthy post. Opinions, tips, and pics of your builds are welcome!
