Why did you mount he servo opposite of what you would do in the buggy? My truck and buggy both have the servo mounted identically. I didn't feel any performance issues with the servo monted this way.

Hi,
I just built it following the instruction manual

I don't like this solution too, but who cares... it 's not a runner
Cheers,

Hey guys,
the TBG slammed body arrived today!
I made some pictures and compared it with the classic body. The slammed body looks a bit of modern, sporty, has sexy curves
![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
it also comes with a spoiler.
The body will be painted in next days

Your pictures make the body look so much better than what they use on eBay. I can't wait to see it painted before I decide what to do. I'm on the fence with this or a JConcepts T4.2 Finnisher.

Yes, pictures on ebay are crap

I was not sure what I had bought before it arrived today, it was almost a kind of surprise
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
I would go for this one or grab the classic RC10T body, just to keep it vintage
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
a modern body will not harmonize with this old chassis (in my opinion).

Didn't know that when I ordered this body. I ordered a spoiler extra but it seems like I won't use it

It seems that my truck has the mashed shock towers

Thanks for the pics Vale! The two types of towers I had mentioned before are basically the same, only difference is the finish, one flat ( you cannot see the mesh), and the other (yours) is glossy, mesh visible.

Hey guys,
Body shell is painted now
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
I didn't want to spend 60 bucks for a paint job so I just painted it myself with some Tamiya spray cans.
It's not perfect but I'm happy with the result
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
The spoiler is missing... I painted it the wrong way, so I have to wait for another one
