Progress.

The blue paint on the rear springs is rough. I think this is pretty common with these kits though.

These have been the most difficult e-clips I have ever had to install.

Accidental duplicate post.

More to come...

He said he pulled 12 more different ones today and will be listing them soon.

No, I wouldn't be related other than just helping him out.

I knew I had read that post about painting the springs before. I just wasn't sure it was for these Traxxas springs. Thanks for the link. The shock caps coloring is pretty true to the pictures.

Getting closer. I had this light blue material I used to wrap the receiver case. The color isn't perfect, but I wanted to try it. I will be replacing it with something closer soon. The XL-3 controller looks right at home on this car. I am trying to set my electronics as close to the box art/manual p...

As I dug into my near empty box of 100 toothbrushes this evening, I was reminded of this thread. I use the heck out of these for cleaning, and although I wish they were a little stiffer, for about 25 cent a piece, they do their job!

I’m pretty sure they are these losi fronts

Awesome! Thank you very much.

My Futaba FXT. Mostly stock with a few small upgrades. It has Schumacher silicone nitride diff balls, Tamiya CVD's, turnbuckles, and upgraded servo saver. Swapped the rear tires for Schumacher VEE-2's. All Futaba electronics, per manual: R112 receiver, S148 servo, and MC 210 esc. I added a Pro-Trix ...
