[X(] Sweeet! I like it! It's probably a lot easier to control on wet pavement now. My pede spins out like crazy.

You need to get this body for it - http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXAKD0&P=7

Wheelbase is 13"s so it should pretty much fit perfect on your pede. BTW that's the body I have on my Clod.

Looks great, what front arms did you use and how did you extend the back? Just curious, still waiting for my Pede to arrive from Tower.

Hope you plan on putting something on to protect your ESC. Zip tie a piece of AL or something to there before you go bashing...

Can you put Kong tires on a stampede without changing anything like wheel hubs? What modifications do i need in order to get them on if i need to modify!

I think the largest you can go is the T/E Maxx wheels, but even then you have to be careful or you'll have a meltdown.

I would just get some bigger 2.2 tires, like the Imex All-t's or Proline Moabs.
