Default RE: T-maxx 4" extended chassis ??

Very nice. I think 4" is a little too much. 2" would have been just fine. Also, I notice the chassis doesn't have the edged rolled up like the stock one, which would have helped to stiffen up the XXL chassis. The dual steering servo is an excellent idea.

I just bought two new stock T-Maxx chassis off ebay for less than $20. I plan on chopping them up and bolting them together, the same way a lot of guys are doing to lengthen the Maxx (see Gasser S-Maxx thread, for example).I plan on using stock wheel driveshafts, too. i still haven't figured out a good way to modify the chassis stiffeners.

Then again, I may not bother trying to figure it out. $79 for the 4" extended chassis kit is a terrific bargain, considering what those .21 big block conversion kit cost.

Thanks for posting it!
