I lowered the truck.

Here’s the current pics as it sits. Waiting on soldering and batteries
I don’t have great batteries so it would be a waste to solder good connectors on.

The RPM shock protectors are on backwards and they won’t work on the front of the truck they rub

Yes that’s before I fixed them.
They are good now.

I’m going to order these tires for a total lower center of gravity

I’m also looking at the integy axles and sway bars
I hate integy but no one else maje sway bar that attach on the upper and lower arms.

The integy axles look bigger too. But they should at least be a little stronger than gpm

Well I’ve done it..???? I’ve gotten my self banned from the sh!tty traxxas forums
I may have accidentally posted non traxxas stuff once but what pisses me off is the thing that did it was telling an mod that a thread with unbreakable bodies was to be removed.
RIP Overpowerxmaxx on traxxas forums
@WoodiE thabks for allowing non arrma items in classifieds and not banning items and such??

Bunch of weiners over there. So censored. Frustrating. The mods are idiots one in particular.
Totally different here. This forum is better. No loss.

 

[Overpowerrc]

Anyone have an opinion on these?

I like the skatewheel wheelie bar. What size is the wheel? If I could find small enough wheels I would put that on my rigs. The plastic wheels look...cheap? Lol

Mine were 52mm 99du/hardness

You need inner spacers and such to complete

I have temporarily acquired a set of monster claws from @Defiant
I’m keeping the adapters and all but the tires look sick and you can definitely feel the extra 12 pounds from them........

Looks like a monster truck more now ? that was the only reason why I liked the traxxas chevron tires ?
