So I’ve had the typhon 6s v4 for a few years, and just looking at its overall condition, “always have bashed with it”, should I replace it with another typhon such as the grom blx or the tlr typhon, or is it worth fixing or not worth putting money into? The diffs have been replaced.

Everything looks to still be in working order..
Check fluids and get a fresh set of tires and you're Ready to Blast!!

Without Remorse. 💥👊


PS:
Give it a overall spit shine.

+ Bang that rear shock tower back to flatness & spray paint the bottom of the chassis and it'll look (nearly) brand new. 😁👍

Looks kinda rough.
How bad is that rear shock tower? Do the rear shocks/suspension move freely?
If your goal is just hardcore bashing with NFG...then I say keep it as is and bash on.

I've got a few cars that I have rebuilt I just got all the parts of ebay complete diffs driveshafts and cups sometimes even put all new A arms and turnbuckles on also new bearing sets. the reason I did it was because most of the cars that I rebuilt have a lot of m2c parts already on them so it was just the drivetrain that was worn out. don't no exactly how much it all cost was a few years ago but it was a lot cheaper than buying a new rc and when finished it was like new anyway apart from the scratches on the aluminium parts and body also loved doing it got the parts over a few months then when I was on holiday from work or christmas time I would start the rebuild :)saying all that yours doesn't look too bad from the pictures just need a new rear shock tower by the looks of it
