After seeing all the fun everyone was having with big block Kratons and the endless amount of upgrades available (Who doesn’t love to upgrade?) I had to pull the trigger and get me one of these monsters. Using the old built in guesstometer, I was slightly shocked to find this beast weighs more as a roller than a ready to run Xmaxx. Oh well here we go with the parts list:
Kraton 8s EXB
M2C chassis
M2C pillow ball retainers
M2C steering rack
M2C xlx2 mount
XLX2 Combo with 1100kv motor
Castle B Link
Raminator Servo
30 & 34t pinions
5mm sway bars
Arrma metal front and rear diff housings
Arrma stone guards
RPM rear stone guards (unsure if I will run these right away)
Megasty unbreakable wing mount/wheelie bar(Also unsure if I will run this, definitely need to find some black skateboard wheels)
I don’t think I will upgrade too much more to start until I get to get out and run it. I like an upgrade as much as anybody but at some point you have to draw a line and roll with what you got.
Plan right now is similar to a lot of other peoples’ builds on here, black and polished… errr lightly polished. Hope to start removing the anodizing from parts this weekend. The thought has ran around my mind to anodize everything black, but I’m not sure I want to learn a new skill for a basher.
