Sold my two trucks and here be the result. I am tearing it down and lock tightening everything and ca gluing everything. If it breaks it will get aluminum. Tada!

LMAO! Good catch!Its a big one for sure. You have it in Mcdonalds?
Yea, the guy in the pic is my dad and every time i get a new truck i go to McDonald's and show it off to him. Trying to get him into the hobby with me.Its a big one for sure. You have it in Mcdonalds?
Probably be a few weeks before i run it. I'm going to take it down to the chassis and loctite everything. Going to replace some things with aluminum right off the bat like the front and rear bumper and a arms. Going to pull the diffs and check fluid. Going to add the killer rc kill switch. Just the normal stuff. Lol@Warrior4Jesus let us know how it holds up and how you like it.
Face palm. I red Loctite one wheel on my summit. I had to heat it up to get it back off when i realized what i had done. I used it by mistake. Darn the luck.Use the blue loctite, not the red. Red is VERY difficult to ever break loose again when you need to repair something.
Aluminum because the plastic ones break easily, and rpm does not make arms for the rampage xt.Why aluminum arms?
You should stick to plastic arms. Aluminum arms are good for nothing but bling at any scale.
I am working on that. You can offset the effect with larger wheels.I have always heard the Rages were better/higher quality rigs than their 1/10 and 1/8 stuff. The only thing I don't like about the trucks is how low the chassis sits and the body sets above everything. I like a more realistic look.

noted. to do list buy gel loctite.I've always found that the gel locktite works better than the liquid, as does the stick version.
I was thinking in winter bent is better than broke. I guess we'll see how the plastic ones do. I am a little more experienced nowAluminum will also bend out of shape at lower impact speeds than a plastic one can take. Plastic will flex and "bounce back" much easier than trying to manhandle a metal piece back into perfect original alignment.
