Awesome pic. I did that with mine and stripped the two upper ball link holes on the axle and broke a pushrod on the front shock. After that, I'm to afraid to run it that hard again.

Did you brace the link mount?!

bluonyx

Yeah, I bought those braces from RC4WD and had those on. I think the previous owner was having problems with it already. So I switched to the emaxx rod ends and used a larger self tapping screw to hold it, with blue threadlock. Hasn't given me a problem yet, just to chicken to go jumping.

Maybe use machine screws and put a lock nuts on the inside of the case?

Hi bluonyx,

The last time you bashed your TXT-1 with HV-Maxx, was the your rear diff locked? Did you encountered any problems on your rear axles? I'm having problems right now since I have locked my rear diff with JB weld. I'll be having my HV Maxx 4.5 next month. I'll be running 2WS.

bluonyx

No I didn't lock the rear diff till I put in the Crawler Motor. I haven't had any problems with my axles, but I have stripped two servo horns for the rear steering. My rear steering seems to turn tighter than the front, which is wierd because I'm using a JR Z590 (85oz.) servo for the rear and an Airtronics 94358Z (200oz.) servo in the front. You'd think the 200oz. would turn better. I might just switch the servo plugs on the reversing "y" harness to see what happens. Maybe I have it plugged in backwards. Wouldn't be the first time[X(]

Don't you people sleep?
