Tommy, that undertray looks very, very nice! I bet it helps alot keeping most off the dirt out. Do you sell those undertrays?

By the way, here are some pics of my new Rush shell:

bascially it's not a good idea to have alloy on alloy, just use your nogin! but if you're prepared to replace bent and cracked parts go all alloy!

Rush Mad, made a mould and vac formed it, works a treat and stops the underside getting scratched and keeps the dirt !!!!!
Nightwolf, only selling in the UK at the mo....sorry man, by the way that is an amazing shell, it would be a shame to use it and get it damaged.

WPA Tommy how much do you want for one of those babies? Those Edit parts look nice, they don't seem to have as many mounting options as GPM though..

Damn, that's too bad, really love those trays!

Glad you like the body, I think this shell won't live long since I've got a huge RC meeting coming up in two weeks. Can't wait!

You can start with rims. De-anodize alluminum brace and titanium turnbuckles if you can get them. Strip the paint off the chassis so its silver too

Nice, oh and in response to fugigas question, yes the Rush Evo body shell will still fit on no problems with the undertray.
Cheers

I ordered a titanium turnbuckle set from Sheldon Hobbies and got an email that it has been discontinued. The next day, Tower emails saying they have removed this part from my wish list because it has been discontinued. Where can I get some?

I am not satisfied with the steering servo saver. When the front wheel hits a rock or anything else the servo saver doesn't return to centere setting afterwards, so the car don't go straight... I tried to apply some grease inside the unit, and that made it return better, but instead the lower part of the ss separates from the top part when I hit small rocks... I consider installing a 3mm spacer between the chasis and the ss to prevent the ss separate.
Has anyone had similar problems, and found good solutions to it? This is a BIG problem for me as it happens all the time, and disturbs my driving...
