Dounuts in the snow, quality. I knew i should have taken advantage of the single days snow we got here a couple of weeks ago!

I'll check out that link later since it will not open the page at the moment for some reason.

Rage 555 to answer your question, the length is measured in overall length, there are 3 different lengths on my buggy, a 78mm, a 68mm and a 73.5 or somthing. I just ordered some new parts, which one are you looking for, I will give you the part #.

wiener, have you had problems with the servo's in the snow? I can only run my buggy about 20 mins before they are all messed up. I not sure if it is the cold, or the moisture, ar just bad servos. I have some metal gear ones on the way, hope this helps.

Hi guys I just got into nitro and bought a speedy tiger. Went through the breakin process and then really started running and tuning it, noticed the breaks wernt pulling well so i brought it around so that i could adjust the breaks. Well apparently i found the only bump in my yard and sent it flying into one of the posts on my neighbors fence. Broke the left lower controll arm and snapped the shock. So i ordered new parts for it including all new duratrax shocks got them in the mail the other day put em on and have been bashing arround alot since then and i gotta say this is one impressive car for under $175 and parts are cheap n the thing is pretty durable as long as you dont nail somthing full speed.

shawndecoste, I'm after a front driveshaft. I can't figure it our for myself since the installation instructions state different lenghts to the spare parts list [:@]

Thanks in advance.

Well i was out jumping it and stripped the big transmission gear. Piece of wire managed to find its way up in there and its missing a few teeth now.

someone should make a way to seal the transmission and shafts so those kinda things don't happen.

Yeah i really gotta agree on that anyone know where i can find the part number lists online, i kinda misplaced my owners manual it came with. Im thinking about trying to seal the holes on the bottom with thin plastic sheets so i dont have anything pull up though them again.

Rage, you are looking for a 65mm Part # 11433. I will warn you, if you decide to run it without this shaft, to remove the brake drive hex, and the brake disc. I made the mistake and had to buy a few extra parts. just to clarify I am talking about the shaft that runs from the front diff to the maingear. is this the one you are talking about?

Is part number 11284 the right main spur gear for the speedy tiger?
Thanks.

Yeah, 11284 is the main gear for a speedy tiger

i just broke one of my rear dogbones. i just got home from having a root canal[:@] and decided to run my car. i hit a snow jump at full speed, and launched my car really high. when i landed i only had 2 wheel drive. is 11432 the right shaft to replace it with?

I have run my buggy alot in the snow and newer had electronic problems except when i i used the original battery pack. snow shortcircuited it and servos were actin crazy. got me a 5cell hump pack and that is more waterproof. havent sealed any of the electronics either.
The tranny doesnt seem to like very cold weather though, it kinda slips out of gear or something when its cold, works okay when i run it slow a little to warm it up. Its fun bashing it around in a couple of inches fresh snow,a white cloud moving reallyreally fast!

No Mate, it's the shaft from the front diff to the wheels. I think these are longer? but not sure how long to be honest.

Think I need the same parts as TrailBlazer?

Cheers

Congrats Trail, I havent heard of anone taking out a rear dogbone, musta been a sweet jump[8D] That part # is corect, but for future reference the front and back are the same part.

Wiener, it is the part that trail mentioned, and they come in a 2 pack so you will have a spare

thanks for the advise on getting a hump pack weiner, I have heard that b/f just to lazy to pick one up. Glad to hear it works .

Hey thanks shawndecoste.

where is the best place to order the 11432 shafts? i am a high school student, and am unemployed so cheaper is better. i knew the front and rear shafts were the same. i actually traded it with a front one after it getting chewed up from binding. btw i got like 5 feet of air. that jump is bigger than it looks in the picture. it is a steep snow birm against a retaining wall. i had to jump it for 2 tanks before i broke any thing. the lil buggy can take some abuse

Look here [link=http://www.excelhobby.com/excel_hobby_014.htm]Smartech parts[/link]

how do you order?

Just click on the add to cart icon on all the items you want then you have to go through pay pal. if you do not have a credit card, which I am assuming being in high school you do not, you may just have to mark down a list of parts you want, then call them, I would think they would take a money order.

hey trail how old ru? i am asking this because i am also a high school student and im 16

i am 16, and i am a junior. i will try to machine dog bones, but the round ends will be hard to make.

Just been checking out the link that shawndecoste posted. It aint fair. You American people get parts and the like at virtually half the price we have to pay in the UK.

Take the bodyshell for example. A new, unpainted one here costs the equivalent of $40. You guys can buy it for $16
