Fronts and rears.....

I've tried the LX1 shocks on both my 2WD and 4x4 Slash. The difference is the LX1's are 13mm, vs. the LX2's at 16mm. They made a big improvement in handling.
For the LX1's, the stock yellow...
I was having a similar issue with my rather heavily modded T-Maxx. I had to chase the tune between so rich it wouldn't shift into 2nd, then having the temps go through the roof if I leaned it out to...
I'm not sure if it will have the same effect on the 3.3, but I'm running the TM523 pipe on my 2.5R, and it REALLY woke up that motor....awesome top end without sacrificing much on the bottom.
The...
I did some quick searches, but didn't find it...can you post some details on the MGT brake mod? Maybe a link to a thread on this forum?
Very nice truck by the way.
Thanks...
You may want to reconsider using extra offset in the wheels. It will affect the scrub radius, and can have a negative effect on handling.
Google "scrub radius" and read up on it before deciding...
Hey Nitronaught, would you mind PM'ing some links to the parts you use? I've got the short chassis 2.5R, with the black tranny, and I'm trying to figure out what's best for my centers.
I've...
PM sent....thanks.
If your engine is tuned really rich, it won't rev up enough to get the tranny to shift. Try leaning the HSN out one hour at a time and see if you notice any performance gains, or if it shifts into...
That's the Revo-spec slipper....very strong design. If one of the pads is MIA, it was probably defective from the start, and just came apart. Definitely call Traxxas....they'll likely send you a...
If you would like to get a good engine, you can't go wrong with an OS. The .21TM is the replacement for the .18TM, which is a great engine for the T-Maxx....
OK, so how about a brand new bearing that still leaves a stripe across the chassis? I was seeing this on my 2.5R that has just a tick over a gallon on it, so I figured I'd go ahead and replace the...

Page 24 details how to adjust the slipper.....you DID read the manual before going out and running your truck the first time, right??? :p
Well, if you're trying to get the rod off the crank before pulling the sleeve, that's your problem. The sleeve is what hold the piston and rod centered in the bore. You can't slide the piston over...
Black, red, blue, whatever....what I really want to know is how you're supposed to keep the bladder from tearing when installing the aluminum caps???:confused:
I've tired oiling everything under...
Ebay...search for "T-Maxx wing mount". I got mine from Billytrucks123. The one that he's selling is a copy of the Diemaker Dave wing mount. It bolts right up to the UE shocktowers. You'll need the...
Thanks a bunch for the information....very helpful! I'm pretty OCD about keeping the diffs in my O'Donnell Truggy shimmed properly, so I can definitely understand the importance of making sure the...
Is this in the right thread???:unsure:
I've used those plugs, but I've mainly stuck with OS LC3, and McCoy MC59. They just seem to last a bit longer for me. This was running on 20%, and after I switched to 30%.
3232X is a good plug...
I know there are tons of threads on the diff mods out there (the search button is always my friend), but I'm at work at the moment, so I don't have time to read through everything...
I've got a...
I'm running the OFNA LX-1 shocks on my T-Maxx, and wound up getting some RC8T springs. They fit the socks perfect, and were stiffer than the OFNA buggy springs.
Hopefully not sounding like a know-it-all, but I agree. :unsure:
The only bog I had from idle was during the punch test. When I was out on the track, it was very crisp, and I could carry the...
First, put everything back to factory settings.
HSN - 4 turns out from closed.
LSN - Flush with end of slide
Idle gap - 0.7 - 1.0mm
Try to get it started at those settings. If it doesn't fire,...
Yeah, I think that I could squeeze a little more out of it, but I'm not at a pro-level racing pace anyway. I'm just out having fun, and I could have run an entire gallon of fuel through the motor in...
Well, weather and my work schedule has conspired to keep me off the track since my last post, but I was able to get out yesterday and today for a few hours and put in some laps, so I thought I'd give...
