Genesis setup help
After running with some buggies and truggies at the local track, I decided to bring my Genesis down from it's Monster truck status and make it just a truck(if that's possible). I took off the top shock on the front and back. Removed the shock spacers to lower it a little(it doesn't roll as much) and now I'm trying to figure out how to get it lower. I've seen that picture of the factory teams racing Genesis, but without a picture off, or some info, I don't know how they got it so low. That's the least of my problems...what pipes fit on this truck? I broke the piece that holds the exhaust line on the muffler(don't ask me how). I've read around the board and found some threads about removing something out the inside of the stock motor. I took a look in mine...what are you guys talking about? Also, where can I get the wheel hubs to put 40 series tires on my truck?
I'm looking at the truck to try and see what else I need...oh...shock oil..what weight?
People have been complaining alot about the Genesis on this board. How it breaks, cheesy parts, slow, etc. I must say, even stock with 20% fuel, it held it's own against all types of truck and buggies with modified this and upgraded that. LST's, Hot Bodies, Ofna's, Kyosho's; you name it, it was there. Besides handling the jump and the sharp turns, it was one of the few trucks that didn't have a broken part when the day was over.
After having the truck for about 2 months and basically being married to it to get it running the way it does; I must say, I love the thing. I've seen plenty of these other trucks running at the track, they all break, they all have bad days. It's not just Genesis trucks, they all break parts, they all stall and won't start back up, you name it, they all do it. In the beginning, me and my truck had a hate relationship...now it's nothing but love.
