Default need some help identifying these aftermarket parts

I just bought this T-maxx today, the guy I bought it from didn't know to much about the truck. Can anyone tell me what kind of chassis and transmission case this is? Also the truck has some sway bars on the front and rear, can anyone tell me who makes these sway bars?

The tranny case is not Hard Core as all of there cases are made of aluminum. It is just a clear plastic case that was for sale on E Bay awhile ago but, you can't find them anymore. It looks like you have a Crazy Nut head on your engine?

Can you see through aluminum? Here is a Hard Core case. Notice you can't see through it!

Default RE: need some help identifying these aftermarket parts

Thanks for all the info guys. I have been able to find out some info about some of the stuff.

Tranny case is transparent plastic and was made by Maxxmods but they're no longer in business
Sway bars are made by Full Force RC http://www.fullforcerc.com/sway_bars.htm

I thought at first the chassis looked kind of like integy also but after looking closer, there are some differences.

Well I don't know that I stole it, I actually traded a stock Savage for it. This one has quite a bit of aftermarket parts on it, the Savage was quite a bit newer. I'm planning to do some racing this summer and I think this one will work better than the Savage for racing.

Can't help with the transmission case, but the chassis is a Pro Hobby Racing Faze5. It's made to work with a Pro Hobby bumpbox so you can drop the on board starter. Until the revo came along Pro Hobby trucks pretty much dominated production MT racing. here's a shot of my Faze5 along with my new Pro Hobby chassis showing the increased length of the new chassis setup. The long truck is really amazing on the track and in skilled hands will run with the revo all day long. Danny Beers, the man behind Pro Hobby has a fresh batch of the long chassis' almost ready to go if you want one.

fhm101, thanks for the info. Do you have a web address for the new longer chassis. I want to at least run this to see how it handles compared to the Savage but I may be interested in the longer chassis in a while.
