RTR Hellfire was made with some super duper cheap chinese metals. I can drill through all the cups and drive shafts with any bit. Can't do it with hot bodies parts. I buy the HBD8T drive train parts and put them in my truck- lasts way longer with less play

The HB spiral ? diffs or the cen diffs are a must upgrade. You are correct, alot of the HF parts are made of weak material.
But i got one new 3 years ago, got another used for spare parts 1 1/2 years ago and now ive just got another used ss with an lrp 28. Iam gunna sell the lrp and put my os28, badlands, 7955 hitec, jp3,cen diffs on the ss and use the others for spare parts.
Id love to buy a new style truggy but the price in Australia is way too high. I only bash now so the HF does ok (as long as i have the spares!) for my needs.
After the new year gunna grab a modded os28 or modded picco.
