Ok guys, I want to know what I need to get for mods now. I have an LST, and here is what I have ordered, some in is the mail, some is on the truck.

Mini LST
ATX Tires, White Dish Rims
Wraith 7K Motor & Heat Sink
Quark 33 ESC
Traxxas Radio
Viscous Diffs
Hot Racing Spool
MIP CVD's (To the tires)
60T Mini-T Sliper Setup
24-25 RRP Pinion
SPM Servo Saver
Elite 1500MAH 8 Cell Packs (2)
Stock Packs (2)
Super Brain 959 Charger (When I get it im taking out the yellow thing, and installing a fan)


Im NOT going LiPo so please dont suggest it.

Here is what im thinking..

Better shocks. I was thinking the Blue and Yellow GPM ones?

Or are the 3Racing ones better?

Maybe Aluminum Knuckles (Steering Blocks)?

Im doing the Baja Bug body.

Im not going to get the monotuning kit becuase I have MIP Cvd's going to the tires. And I want to keep those.

However, I am thinking about getting some Diff Cases?

Are piggyback shocks better than normal?

I wont be doing too much jumping, I just want some good handeling.

GPM Normal ones are good? Or are the Piggback ones better?

I am going to wait a while on the radio...

And is the graphite chassis really worth the 60 bucks? And will it hold up as well as stock?

Can it take as much of a beating as the stock chassis?

Also, is it a waste to get the Aluminum Diff Cases?
