its hard to see from the pics but does it have a truck bulkhead?? Sweet buggy btw love seeing custom stuff!

i really liked running a full stick on the drivers side on my xx4. Such an awesome car! i would've liked to keep mine, but i was running out of spare parts!

run it! you can get the bulkheads now, and rollers go for dirt on ebay. the xxt is also one of my faves

im pretty sure you could use a 22 slipper assembly as well.

just be sure the spur is not the new hds one...however that gets me thinking, perhaps you could use the new hds slipper from the 22 2.0 hmmm

I agree, this truck would be good for the shelf. It would be cool to replicate a team drivers car though if you wanted a project. period correct motor, esc, batteries, etc. I think Vale did a Pavidis replica if my memory serves me correctly. Scr8p could point you in the right direction if there's an...

I'm planning to keep the arm mounts as is since that's what seems to help give me the legal ROAR wheelbase. I ordered some re-worlds arms to use, new arm mounts and a tie rod set to use. I may try some 30 degree castor bocks, but these old ones seem to be fine. The wheels will probably be B3's, I'm...

those universals should take the brushless power just fine. sixtysixdeuce runs crazy 3s + mod motor on one of his rc10s and those old asso universals seem to be okay!

Nice goldie! and don't count the old girl out just yet. With a good setup ( and more importantly, a good driver), the dinosaurs can definitely turn just as fast of times as the youngsters!

where you been anyways? I'm still slammed at work but hopefully ill be able to make it out to mhor the sunday after next. I'm dying to run this thing!

I really like that body! you know jconcepts had a conversion kit that made the t4 into an 1/8 scale buggy. You may be able to get the narrow, truck sized ribbed tires still if you think that would be beneficial. they are similar to the original narrow 10t wheels. JC8? I think that's what it was call...

Here's the new paint job... candy green ghosted skulls with flouro orange/yellow panels.

nick I just realized my detonator paint job is like an reversed version of yours!!

Yeah I'm aware of that, like I said I originally was gonna run b4 fronts, and still am just because of tire selection.

Here she is in roller form. I'm glad I went with the little wheels, the look sweeeet! I prob will end up running 2.2 however, just because there's really no tire selection for the little ones. But for now I'm lovin the look. Next up is to get all the electronics installed, and paint up my new Detona...
