Very nice write up. My buddy is running the Evader shocks as well. Hopefully I will be able to add to the list of Evader parts that can be used soon. We plan on taking my new Evader Pro apart and seeing what works on the rusty. Why?? Have you seen how cheap Evader parts are on ebay!

If I may add a few things. PLZ correct me if I am wrong.

Good servo upgrade on the cheap: ebay sourced traxxas 2055

If you have a brushless or nasty mod motor maybe one of the pro ball diff may be in order: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXJH17&P=7

I have been told that the turnbuckles from a T/E maxx fits the rusty.
