Status: offline 		well I'm gradually getten better...I dont have anyplace to practice which sucks so taking a lil longer then usuall I'd suspect....I have won heat races (by default..they all broke and I stayed together...lol)....I mostly have to race veteran drivers as there isnt really enuff buggies in the rookie class to hold a rookie race...not complaining though as I think it has made me better...I'm pretty competative and with everything else I continued on and got to the top of my competition area ( soft tip darts, billiards and so on)....if they think I'm gonna give up they are sadly mistaken..lol

Status: offline 		new hurricane xtr owner. wow this buggy is fun and durable so far. I ran it full speed under my friends lowered scion tc the other day and the only damage was a bent shock tower that i bent back! the aa battery came loose while diving and caused that one. now i zip tie them. it seems very fast and the motor runs real nice, but the glow plugs don't seem to last long compared to my traxxas vehicles. is this normal for a big block? I never had one before. I am tuned on the rich side still running at 215F . i know my tmaxx like to run at like 225F . any suggestions on glow plugs and temps for the sh .28 3p? thanks.

Status: offline 		I just got a Hurricane XP from a friend that I'm putting together for my brother-in-law. Looks like I need a lot of parts as the guy that had it before really hacked it up bad. Wheres the best place for parts? So far I need.


  • Hinge pins

  • Springs that go between the lower front arms and the rear mounts along the hinge pins > Is there some way to do without the springs, just make it a normal mount like all the other buggy designs.

  • Front Shocks

  • Front lower arm mount

  • Front lower arm mount bushings I guess those plastic inserts that are in them to hold the hing pins.

  • Rear Hubs


Also what upgrades are recommended? Either OEM or Creatively adapted parts from other cars.

Status: offline 		rufaster.com should have the parts you need.

I have an Avalanche XP and these are the things that I have done/can recomend.

Rear shock tower is weak. Redcat sells an upgrade for like $22, or... I bought 2 regular rear shock towers on clearance for $1.50 each, bonded them together with glue and replaced the original screws with 2mm longer screws. rear shock tower is pretty strong now. I think the Hurricane has a different tower but the premice should still work.

Rear chassis brace mount is kind of weak. Replace plastic with this. It may just save you from replacing the whole chassis down the road.

Check front and rear diffs. They may need lube.

If your rear upper arm fixing block is plastic you may want to consider this part. The stock plastic ones can flex on a hard landing and allow the rear susspension to pop loose.
www.rufaster.com/81605B.aspx

Other things I have done is to change the muffler and aif filter.
This is my Avalanche. The pipe has now been remounted so that the exhaust points down.


That's all I can think of for now.

Status: offline 		Thank you very much for the info. After looking over that site and also through my parts bin, it looks like I should be able to have the buggy up an running for about $30. I think I'm going to convert it to a GT Class on-road car that seems to be all the rage in the club scene.

You could find parts for it to help.

Status: offline 		I bent an axle stub on my Backdraft 3.5 and Redcat is out of stock. Anyone know of a suitable replacement? I can get parts for pretty much any other brand locally. Here's the part I'm talking about:
