I paid 25.10 for everything else but the pipe so I got free shipping with that also. They just put it in with the pipe.

Darkfire....You ordered from the wrong seller I got mine from Ken... you know Ken... http://myworld.ebay.com/engagerc_com_usa

KM baja as to my door in washington in less than a week direct from China no import fees $560

Your seller might be putting more than 1 order together...... then sending all orders at one time to get a better price.......

better deals for your seller when he buys 10-20 vehicles

ok get a pre air filter also http://www.davesmotors.com/store/product293.html

Im still running the stock servos they have held up through 4 tanks of gas or 1 gallon of coleman fuel
( but upgraded servos are good) a hitec 805 bb for steering and 645 for throttle/brake for your Hummer

Upgrade your TX & RX....I use the spectrum dx 3 with the RX

Slap a tunepipe on you when you can comes with a 2000 mah... I upgraded to 4200 mah

heres a bunch of parts if you need them innerchangable with the duratrax MT

Only the duratrax 1/5 MT truck parts are almost 100% innerchangable.... the lower rear arms are diifferent from the duratrax firehammer

best upgrades
1) get yourself a metal pinion.
2) SS diff cover (when you need to replace the old one)

if your mesh starts messing up (it will just a matter of time) get alloy motor mounts


Both the mounts and the pinion can be bought here
