Well after I get my gf xmas present, thats going to be the gift to myself.

i have the real deans and they are hard to pull apart.. maybe it is just because i dont want to break anything but IMO they seem pretty hard..

FloridaDude

thier suppose to be tight, but that is why i like the fake deans

maxxin2.5

oh i dont want them that way i want them easy to pull apart..

SuperJETT

On the Dean's, just Dremel some shallow grooves in the sides for finger grips, problem solved.

Mr. Mugen

Or thy this method http://supercubclub.proboards78.com/...ay&thread=1842

Kevin, that is a great link and a fantastic idea. Thanks for that

SuperJETT

But that glue will weigh your truck down!!

FloridaDude

these are the ones i was talking about. but they dont show the ribbed sides [link=http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=2116]here[/link]

very little weight to hot glue. But if you are racing, i guess all weight counts.

maxxin2.5

dude to use gklue like that is nothing.. that like .2 grams.. haha
idk

but hey i have a mini t and i only have one actualy mini t configured nimh battery pack and i run my rc18t pack with it so do you guys think it would be a bad idea to mount the battery up top and the electronics dwn below?

SuperJETT

The glue comment was a joke guys, wow, so serious.

Now I'm going to go trim every other pin off my tires to shave some weight and fill them with helium too.

FloridaDude

that is what i said right? haha yeah that would work just dont put ur esc right next to the rx.

maxxin2.5

haha you would be literally floating.. that would be BA..

also do you guys think i can mount my electronics on the bottom and my battery up top?
i have nimh 6 cell stick packs so i was wondering if the COG would come in affect here..

FloridaDude

it would affect it alittle bit but just set the suspension softer

maxxin2.5

ok thanks... thats what i thought i had to do.. it is already pertty soft.. i will take it easier on the jumps to.. so should i put 80wtR 60***?? for the oil in my suspension

maxxin2.5

hmm well i put it all together and i mounted the elctronics down below and battery up top.. man it loks soo nice.. now i just need some losi street meats all around and im set..

oh and a wheely bar.. maybe my next order i will get some foamies all around (or street meats) and a wheely bar and maybe ummm the mip diff and an rpm bumper..
also maybe a body i hate the stupid hummer one i have.. it is soo ugly..

FloridaDude

give the hummer to me. u have to get and rpm bumper it is amazing. at 35 mph i hit a dumpster in the corner and the bumper is still in one part.

maxxin2.5

if you want to trade the body.. it is shiny blue and i cut to slits in the side though so i could run the rc18t stick pack..

also haha 35mpg (miles per gallon) i know you mean mph but i just though it was funny because if you got 35 mpg in a rc car that would be crazy!

FloridaDude

ok i was thinking about my real car lol. u have a pm

maxxin2.5

pm sent back..

Mr. Mugen

Seriously? Whats the point of a pm if you post when you send them? Just curious....

maxxin2.5

well i read it so i just thought what the heck.. haha

hey can i use rc18t springs on my mini t?
my fornt end doesnt rebound AT all with my battery mounted up top.. the back seems ok but once i refill the shocks it should be good but for now can i use the blue springs form my rc18t on my mini t?

maxxin2.5

ok so i tried it.. the bluwe springs i had were to short but i found some gold springs that are really stiff.
my car still chassis slaps from a foot and a half drop.. only in the front though.. and the fron it like completely empy.. the back still has some cushion but not very much..
so how do you open the shocks i really need to refil tem tomarrow..

i am gnna get 70 for the back and 50 or 60 for the front...
