Default Need help!

I just broke my radio, I'm looking for a new one, but i have a question. Will i need to buy a new reciever too? Or can i just buy a new radio and run it with the reciever i have now? any help would be great! Also, how big are the stock hubs? Any one recommend tires and rims? i'm looking to replace those also.

you can keep the recever if you get another radio that is 27mhz. stock hubs are 17mm.... what do you want in a tire (on or off road?) on road get these

off road look for badlands or badland copies.

What receiver do you Have?
AM/FM?

You will be able to use a different Transmitter with different receiver.
I presume your receiver is AM, So you will need to buy a Radio That as AM
And buy Matching Crystals.

Although, you may have trouble Just buying the Transmitter.
Personally, i would buy a Transmitter and receiver with Servos.

Just pick one up on Ebay. They do not bring much and your old crystal will work in the new radio. Bud

The two I broke, I sat on the tail gate of my pickup and a gentle Kansas breeze blew them off onto the pavement. My puppy broke one for me too, a 115 pound Shepherd is rough on equipment when he gets to romping!
