Well, last friday i got my truck so i got it all ready to run, batteries, tires glued yada yada ... well saturday morning i took it to my old Highschool to break it in (parking lot holds about 6-700 cars) so in the afternoon when it warms up i start tuning and get it all running good .. well i was bored so i started jumping and broke both front bulkheads, 2 rear shocks (top plastic piece broke off where it mounts) and i broke the front skid plate .. are these common to break or was i just being to tough on it? also what are some other common things to break? this way i can order them and replace them while i have it all apart .. thanks for the help guys ..

also another thing .. what company do you guys recomind for best quality of aluminum products ... i was on towerhobbies and i noticed that there are some companies out there that charge like twice what others charge ... for example HardCore Racing charges $79.99 for their bulkhead versus Powerline who charges 33.99 for theirs ...

idk about your first post but when buying aluminum ALWAYS buy the most expensive you can afford. there is different quility


ps. hardcore is titanium. grade a+ stuff right thurr

lol judging by the discription i would say the tmaxx.

haha my bad .. good call team zero .. you win, it is the T-maxx ... what shocks should i get? right now im looking at the Hot Bodies aluminum shocks ... wasnt sure how well the "piggyback" actually works on such a small setup so i decided against those ... also what weight fluid should i get? 30 or 40?

get the big bores or the powerstrokes. Great shocks with no leaking. Just get the aluminum bulkheads. You want to strengthen the core that way it wont break b/c its a pain to replace and takes a long time to do so. Stick with plastic everything else. Good brands are hardcore racing, fast lane machine, ue and dace

please lets not forget about rpm parts. get all the rpm parts you can cause they are indestructible. never broken a rpm part. and they are not really expensive at all either

can you actually bash too hard ? maybe, but the degree of harshness you shell out to your truck is relative to how much money you want to spend. lol

if you are a basher you may want to think twice about alloy , it costs twice as much as plastic and when it bends or breaks , there's 30 bucks out the window , plastic , for 30 bucks you could have 5 of those parts in stock , think a little before you go crazy with alloy , trust me on this one

if you wanna be the kool kid on the block go buy some flextek titanium A-arms. If they bend they will return to thier original shape.
