I will start off-
Modded parts-
Shaved every other nub off of the stock Maxx tires. ( sorry no pic, the camera isnt working).
Drive shaft durability mod, where I took and extra piece of male half shaft, and put it on the exposed female half shaft, to help prevent twisting.
Custom made parts-
Custom built rear A-Arm guards, made steel sheet metal.
Custom built full center skid plate, made from steel sheet metal.
Custom built front aluminum bumper, made from 1/4'' aluminum rod stock.

actually there not muggy shocks their smaller lol. these are after shock shocks , i cut the cyclinder and the piston to fit the st1 here are the cut parts i call it chop cut rebuild lol. by traxxas standards (when they come out with a new engine they say its 60 or 50 %more hp)these shocks are 35% longer (6mm lol) than stock and more oil to boot.

what there trying to do is make a mount that goes between the 2 shock positions ,thats the part that is causing problems. this shock that i cut will fit (well maybe) in one shock position . the lst2 shock tower is a almost a direct fit for the mgt i will post some pics of mine with it, the lst2 or the aftershock shocks are too long to fit but if you cut them like i did with the st1 they should fit

Just curious, but why the .28 in that truck? .46 have too much power?
