Monster Pirate Pro Line Suspension Pictures
Here are some pictures of my recently finished Ofna Monster Pirate with Maxx Suspension. The truck handles great with this suspension and it really didn't cost me much because I had most of what I needed or I bought it used if I didn'thave it. I do have some other things coming for it to spice it up a bit such as a set of Sawtooth Knockoff Hubs, Dynamite Aluminum Arms, 17mm Hex Adapter, and Dominator Rims/Tires. I can't wait to see what this looks like when I get the adapters and put the Monster Pirate rims/tires back on it. I just hope the suspension can handle the 1 lb tires. Now does anyone wanna give me some $ to get the SaBR extended chassis?

Looks nice but that's not the proline suspention, thats the old tmaxx/emaxx suspention(short arms) Those will not handle the punishment of the MP tires and wheels, yould be better off using the wheels and tires on it!!
This is the aftermath of runing the dom rims/tires and adapters on my stock arms!! I did a little tumble to cause this!! Not only did I break that off, but 6 of my wheel bearings were destroyd after only 1/2 a gallon!!

Yeah I know that they aren't/won't handle those tires but I have a set of Dynamite Aluminum arms on the way and a set of RPM arms that I'll also use. Also I've though of using the oversized carriers that use larger bearings but I'm not for sure yet. So far so good. Once I'm don't it should be trick! If something breaks prematuraly or too easily I'll upgrade it so something more solid.

THe larger bearing carriers would be a exelent upgrade for big tires, and aluminum arms will help out some, the dynamites will hold their own I slambed a .15 maxx into a street drain(6" hole) with these arms and broke my aluminum bulkhead and front bumper, but did nothing cept scrath the top arm!!
