Default RE: Project bulletproof stampede!

I have a slash that sees alot of skatepark action, and am very good at "testing" for bulletproofness. I have almost every RPM part made (I dont have the skidplates yet, as I have not seen them available anywhere in black yet). But I can not stress this enough: DO NOT BUY THE RPM REAR BEARING CARRIERS! They are twice as fragile as the stock ones, I could barely get through one battery pack without breaking one. I switched to the aluminum rear traxxas ones and have never had any issues since, and I beat my truck hard! There are few aluminum parts I would actually suggest, but these are a definately a solid purchase! Avoid aluminum parts that come in direct contact with anything in a collision.
