I'll look into the 4-tec springs, thanks. The only thing about the big-bore shocks is that they don't have threaded bodies.
Any one know how to do this? I'm thinking about getting Pro-Line's Power-Stroke shock, but I might do something else. You can get just the springs with different rates, but it doesn't come with the...
I'm wanting to make a six wheeled Stampede, and I want it to look like a real beast. So I thought a semi truck body would be fitting. Does any one know of any semi bodies that would fit a Stampede?...
I can't picture Traxxas making a 100% rock crawler. I would be very interested to see it if they did make one.
I've bent one, but one as far. I tried doing a frontflip and landed up-side-down. The shockcap came off too. Here the youtube link:

I found this on youtube the other day, it's a stampede with bleach on its tires doing a burnout. I'd like to try this myself and add some doughnuts and stuff, I just don't want to ruin my tires. It...
I've wanted to do something like this ever since the Slash 4x4 came out. But I'm going to start out with a Slash 4x4 chassis, build a custom chassis out of aluminum, and some custom body mounts to...
Wow. Hardly looks like a Stampede, looks more like a Rustler now.
Ya, and I think he has a set of Traxxas Talons aswell. I'd like to get my hands on those too.
:D I just got a Stampede corps for free, plus extra front and rear suspension. My robotics teacher had it sitting up on a shelf all year, I asked him about it once, but he told me to mind my own...
OK I'll probably get a 2S for starters at least. If I find I need more, I can always buy a 3S for around $30.
I'm thinking about getting some LiPo batteries for my Rustler VXL-3s. I know where I can get some for a fraction of the cost, and there are tons of opsions. What cell, discharge, and mAh would be...

If we could use more characters I'd have "Horsepower is how fast you hit a wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you."
Look on Pro-line's site, they tell you how to paint pretty well. The two big mistakes I made when I painted my body was only using one layer of liquid mask, and buying Tamiya paint "for plastics"....
Yikes! I agree the cyclist should pay for damages, he wasn't paying attention. I used to have my shock caps coming off all the time, a couple drops of epoxy holds them on extremely well. I all ways...
Abbotsford is a little far for me to drive just for an R/C bash. Do you know any where in-between that's good to drive?
I favourited this movie a while ago, it's pretty sweet. He's got sand paddles and a wheelie bar. If you look on the comments, his reply to me (UrbanSportGuy) explains a bit how he did it. I don't...
Motorstorm's like the best off-road game ever! I wish I had a PS3 so I could play it. But I agree, maybe a CORR racing game will come out. I'd like to see something like Virtual R/C for PS2 or...
Hey, I'm looking for R/C enthuisiests around Chilliwack B.C. Canada to drive with. I have a Traxxas Rustler VXL Waterproof edition, Losi Mini Rock Crawler, and an Xmod project I'm still working on. I...
You mean the bulkhead? Where the bumper mounts onto the truck?
I know that the RPM bumper can take more than a stock or aluminum one, but what I want to know is can an aluminum bumper take more than a stock one?
I agree with the whole "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", but here's why I want the parts:
Rear suspension arms: Break after hard landing.
Rear tower: stock one flexes, tearing the body.

I've got some Rustler XL-5 videos and one with my new VXL-3s brushless system.
