Old Hummer H2
Hey I have this old Hummer h2. I was looking for some help and advice on what to do with it. I was wondering if it would be possible to put a weed eater motor in it. Thanks for the help. heres some pics

RE: Old Hummer H2
call me crazy; that looks like a radio shack grade car...
so... while I wont say not possible... cause anything is possible. but you'd have to replace prettty much everything about it and when you were all done you'd still have a POS.
no offense. its just... yeah, that wasnt built to handle any sort of power or speed; a weed eater would tear the gears to peices; probably tear the axle apart, and destroy the tires. the suspension would never support the weight; and even if it could; thats a 2cent suspension setup intended for novelty more then anything.
sorry if I come off harsh; just want to properly display my opinion of it being a waste of time to even consider.
if you want to serious RC, stick around and read; you'll see various far better values of trucks that can have you running for <400$.
