I am completely new to the rc truck world. So, I just got a Big Rock at the high recommendation of a friend. I love it so far. i have had it for a week or 2 now. Today i had a great crash and broke the rear shock tower. with that i going to have to take most everything apart. What recommendations would ya'll say to go ahead and replace. Also where online is a good place to order from right now? my local store is kinda decimated on their supplies at the moment. The tool that came with my truck stripped out completely the second i tried to use it.

Thanks

14mm red wrench, mine stripped to.best mod all new sealed bearings.change bearing in motor I've went thou 3 motors cause of bearings.wider big rock is funner big rock.lots of threads about wider stances on here.or keep eye on pinion gear,if it starts looking like this bearings are failing. When they fail the bearing comes apart in there and locks up the rotor ruining motor. Unless you're loaded rich I wouldn't fix nothing until it breaks your going to break plenty of s***
Plastic spur gear strips...most likely bearings failure in motor or slipper clutch to tight.

Not sure where you broke your shock Tower at but GPM makes these.these are good mods. If you could buy these instead of buying a new shock Tower if they would work with what you broke. You probably broke it where the shock mounts into the tower. Only downfalls that come from China and it takes a month to get all GPM parts
