It's aluminum parts for the tmaxx or sportmaxx. They make some of the strongest stuff you can buy.

Truck is sweet dude, that kit is only $1000?, nice how they keep the plastic bumper braces, I'll never understand why anyone would change the braces to aluminum. Are the bumpers aluminum?

No the kit would cost you about $2000 if you were to buy it but, I bought this already together on Ebay!

Yep, when you go with all the bells and whistles, its over 2k to build a full SM, if you are a power hungry freak though, there is no other alternative to make a maxx hold that kind of power. Those things will laugh at any motor you can throw at them. Congrats bro, no go buy and RB motor and put that beast on the race track.

lol, that flat spot was supposed to be against the well wrapping abround it a little to make it look like the wheels is spitting flames.

and, the reason that they dont follow the curves of the well, they're upside down :P lol, oh well, food for thought on your next body.

but, i really like the look of the front end. its done very well.
