Default Update to my Maxx

I just added the Traxxas bigbore shocks and the FLM shock towers on my 3905, the bigbores are incredible, they are so smooth, also the shock towers look great too. So far my E-maxx has FLM front and rear skid plates, FLM front bulk, FLM front and rear shock towers, big bores, maximizer X-75 black beadlocks, proline maxx mashers, aluminum wheel nuts, mamba max, 8XL, CC BEC, traxxas Y-harness wired in series, and two 2s aero-nuts 4500 mah lipos.





















PS: I know in some of the pictures it looks like the shocks were a little unaligned, but that problem is now fixed.

Very nice, I too just bought and installed some big bores on my stampede yesterday. No more popped caps. Woot!

Good choice in shocks. I pulled brand new MSR4s off my Maxx in favor of the bigbores. I like to see the new Maxxs with mods.

Yeah, I am with Fuse.

Personally I think you have a bad setup, first of all, Feigao motors are low quality and only 2 pole motors, and they just suck in general. Second of all, that body, is terrible. Thirdly, you have duck tape on the motor plate...... that looks awful. And just so ya know, those FLM shock towers, look ugly..... Get some UE Bulkless Towerless setup or something, looks much better.

Thank you Revotrx3. But for some other people, the motor never gets too hot and is great so far, so it does not "suck in general". And I am getting a new body very soon, but again, I dont care about anyones opinion on my body if its negative, everyone has their own freakin taste in body, so if you have to be an @$$hole, dont comment on the thread.

if it runs good and was cheap, well that is a winner in my book. and home brew mods like duct tape, again I am all for it. Put the lid on and run it! How about some vids, some big air, put those new shocks to the test.
overall nice job.
