Status: offline 		with the cen gen? Read an article about it in an RC magazine, no mention of problems
or recalls.
It said the chassis was 17 pounds, had a huge motor producing almost 5 HP, a 3 speed tranny with reverse, and really HD drive line. I thought to myself, that would be perfect for my custom built chassis so I come here to do some checking and man am I glad I did.
It seems it has some issues, I'd like to know what is the problem/s exactly before I buy?
Thanks Ron

Status: offline 		I've read everything here, but cant find specifics. Whats this "care package" all about?

Im considering this truck for parts ONLY, I specificly need the tranny and driveline but Im not buying a cen gen until I find out more pertanent information.

If the cen reps/owners wont/cant assist me any further with details then I'll have to reconsider the MGT or LST for donor parts.

I did conclude one thing about the engine- rear crank bearing failure? I think its caused from severely OVER REVVING the motors while attempting to engage/find 3rd gear. What do yall think?
