A truggy is more than just bigger tires. There's totally different suspension geometry, longer chassis, and a lot more. I would recommend selling it and getting a real truggy, or you can get the proline adapters, and put on 23mm MT tires.

You do not need any adapters to have fun with a make shift truggy, Get a set of Ofne full offset 17mm hex wheels
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/1966 and glue up a set of Panther low profile maxx size tries
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/1969 and you will need a high quality and powerful sealed steering servo and have all the fun in the snow you can handle.

If you really want to bash and tear up stuff then do not waste your time with a truggy or a buggy I have a truggy and love it but when it comes to bashing my Savage x takes the cake. And the x is really easy to work on, as of right now they are sending the rtr's out with upgraded diff cups in the box. And that really is the only thing you need for it. If you can think of it I have hit it with my truck or it has hit me, and it just keeps on going.

He's already had a Savage. And we all know that MT's are better bashers, but he seems to want to make due with what he has

You guys. I have had/ driven just about every MT car you can name. Just please stick with the buggy. The point is, i dont have a whole lot of money right now. And i started with MT;s then onroads now im on buggies. Im going to learn a little of everything before i decide what i want. I guess after this, i will get a truggy at some point.
