I am new to the crawler scene. I saw some links on ebay that were some sort of modified traxxas links. I have to look into it more, I just haven't seen much online for these Clods.

Maybe Evader can help me out...

Ya I can! U kidding? There's thousands of sites with crawler conversions and custom chassis etc. Do you want a crawler or an mt?

fist off www.clodparts.com has most parts for the clodbuster listed. And www.thecrawlerstore.com has the stick and the nn chassis which are both prize winning packages. Go to www.rccrawler.com and look in the clodbuster section and you will be amazed at what some people are running. http://www.crawfordperformanceengine...n/commerce.cgi this site has some cheap chassis that work good. The most popular setups lately are torsion stick chassis and tubers, but to get these you need to custom make one.

For MT I would go tuber or a clodzilla becuase they are designed for responsive suspension and jumping rather than crawling. I still prefur the look of a tuber though:D

For sure! I bet he has at least 10 high quality clods:D

The clodzillas are on ebay and if you can believe it, tower sells one! I would prefur the clodzilla three but that's just me... http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...ARCH=clodzilla

You would pick Clodzilla 3 over 4?!

Because, it looks cooler when in running stance!

No and if you do, not yet. It's got 7 days left. I hear the evx is the least reliable out of all the high power esc's. The super rooster, e-zilla esc, and super duty xr are the best.

Ya, I am watching it right now. I usually bid on stuff within the last minute.

OK, so this one is out. I din't know about the reliability issue and that is good to know. I will just get the Novak SD XR

Uhm....would you mind driving to groton? Don't know about lunchboxer, but how bout you? I need to see a clod in person to make sure I want to put down like 300 bucks to finish my tuber. If it aint as great as I though I'll scrap it.

[]TEX[] 09-04-2006 06:36 PM

RE: Super Clod Buster Build-up Thread
 
But you don't live in Groton. Whatever the case, I'll drive to you. I've driven farther for less of a reason.

RE: Super Clod Buster Build-up Thread
 
I'm going to run the S-Clod stock first aside from the shocks and bearings and stuff. I just want to see how it runs and it's not really going to be a rocker. I just want to bash around with it.

CustomTamiyas4Life 09-04-2006 07:23 PM

RE: Super Clod Buster Build-up Thread
 
I know of a good place in groton though and it's a little closer to you but whatever you want to drive to. I'm deciding if I want to finish the clod or plane off for a while and just hop up my current cars. tnx-new shocks, tlt-new chassis,pede-cf chassis, aluminum stuff, get a scroll saw etc. If I see the clod and like it then I may get a clod.

[]TEX[] 09-04-2006 07:27 PM

RE: Super Clod Buster Build-up Thread
 
I want to try and get a Grave Digger body for it.

I say hop up your best kit.

CustomTamiyas4Life 09-04-2006 07:53 PM

RE: Super Clod Buster Build-up Thread
 
My pede is probably my best bet right now. The crawler is all done minus stronger servos which aren't really needed for bashing and my tnx just needs new shocks and front bumper and glow plug, but all that is cheap on ebay or tower. I also have more possible mods or the pede.
