You should try putting .7 beadlocks together 😉 But Doom's right. It gets easier. You need some extra long screws. Insert the clamp ring into the tire and try to center it, making sure the lip of the tire is on the inside of the clamp ring. Press the front of the wheel into the lip of the tire...

It hurts my back looking at those pics 😅 Cool rigs!

Oh, I see what you were thinking. You thought I was thinking AE stood for Associated Element. But no, I meant I thought the element trucks were listed as Associated Electrics Element (sub name here). I've been an AE fan since the RC10, so yeah, I knew what AE was ;)

Yeah, I see it is like that now. Just thought back then it was different.

I seem to remember looking at the Element truck you bought (your first one) and it showed AE on the listing for it on Tower Hobbies. Back then I thought Element was just the model name.

I find it worrysome Vanquish has seemed to be moving towards RTR kits. And Horizon got rid of the Ryft and Capra kit versions. They even discontinued the Capra altogether. I just don't get it.

As TP said, you can't go wrong here. As I said, I don't own any of them, and should leave this to the guys with experience, but I've watched a worrysome amount of video on all of them, along with the Element trucks that Doom mentioned. And they are kickass trucks. I just have a bit more love for...

The Axial SCX trucks have tons of hopup parts available for them. But if I were going to drop $500 on a RTR crawler, I'd buy a Vanquish I think. I don't own any 10th scale crawlers yet, but I am pretty sure after doing some research, talking to the guys here, and watching videos that I would be...
