Im looking for people that own a Dirt Demon and which hop ups you have done and also where do i go to shop to get hop ups such as aluminum suspension, gearing, shocks, etc. Also so how does the truck perform for you?

I own one, and like yours it ate a clutchbell and spur gear in no time. Hot bodies has a solution which talks about doubling up on the spur gear. The other thing they told me to try was using a hardened clutchbell, so I have made this modification, and also put on a new spur gear. Have not tried it yet, but I hope they don't chew each other up again.


good luck

I know one thing for the price a Hot bodies Dirt Demon Cost i wish i had gone with a Tmaxx or Revo because this is ridiculious you cant find parts it has known flaws such as the part you discribed and the weak plastic upper and lower A-arms that snap easily.. Its just hard to believe that the same company that makes these Truckzilla kits for other rc trucks wont come up with a fix for one of its owns. just my opinion[:@]

I know, and now were stuck with the lemons, and know one will buy these pieces of crap. You expect a much better fix from the manufacture, but they don't give a crap, to busy making money off aftermarket parts for the savage, etc!!
