So this was my first bash day with my new to me kraton and it was a blast even though I really F'd it up! First half of the session was launching it off a decent dirt ramp and tooling around. That was awesome and surprisingly did my first backflip and front flip! Kraton took a few nice hits here and there but this truck is really solid and performed excellent. Then a suggestion of "let's take it to the street and open it up" was mentioned so we did. Third pass I clipped the neighbors 4x4 mailbox post at the rear wheel. It basically exploded and a arm pin, swaybar and driveshaft went hurling 50 feet down the street onto the other side of the street woods line. Amazingly I found every part. Looking for suggestions. I think I can just jb weld the diff case screw area, hammer flat the shock tower and replace the rear suspension hanger part. How many times did you bend your tower back before you just bought a gka or voltage Hobbies, etc tower?
And the rear suspension hanger... How often do they go? Is that a must have aftermarket part as well?
Here's the damage.
Was a good time! ?
Oh and bent the rear a arm pin also
