Tra7151x nowhere to be found why?

**jtalaue** · 05-08-2012 07:41 PM

Man I've been searching and can't seem to find any store who has them in stock does anyone know why?

**MooseSlash** · 05-08-2012 08:15 PM

Well, look on www.buytraxxas.com. Then www.amainhobbies.com, then www.amazon.com.

**erx4x4** · 05-09-2012 12:21 AM

**Mossie** · 05-09-2012 08:12 AM

**Dadx2mj** · 05-09-2012 08:59 AM

I'm jealous of your 2 minute walk. For me that would be a 2 year walk

**jtalaue** · 05-09-2012 10:42 AM

Well traxxas needs hurry up and get this out to our LHS. The crazy thing is its available to order on their site but man that's expensive $70 versus $50 and below.

**Strykeviper** · 05-09-2012 12:31 PM

My lhs also has them slightly cheaper than dad's:

I went to Hobbytown USA once, and they had every Performance Acsessory you could get your hands on (not to mention the normal parts) for a reasonable price!

**Evgen** · 05-14-2012 02:29 PM

or...
you can get TRA7052, TRA7153 and TRA7055 to build your own

Thanks I just check the cost on eBay for all parts and it comes out to be more then $76.48.

**Evgen** · 05-14-2012 04:02 PM

just as another option.
i also wait for 7151x for about a month, but still out of stock everywhere

I appreciate the advice. Thank you!

I have tried the gpm cvds they are actually pretty good. The t bone is a little thicker than Traxxas and when I bent a Traxxas cvd I replaced it with the gpm worked fine

**Evgen** · 05-14-2012 05:22 PM

traxxas has TRA7153 replacement
what if you bent or break gpm cvd? you'll have to buy a whole new set again

Evgen did you not read my post?

**jtalaue** · 05-14-2012 06:14 PM

I'm so excited!!! So now I've got 7151x, 7250r and a body from team blue groove on the way next upgrade will be big bore shocks then I'm done until I decide to upgrade my esc and motor and I'll do that when I break either one of them which ever goes out first lol.

**50togo** · 05-14-2012 06:26 PM

Have you checked out the exotek shocks that's what I run there great!

**jtalaue** · 05-14-2012 06:51 PM

I have and that will be my next and final upgrade.

**50togo** · 05-14-2012 06:54 PM

I have done 30ft jumps with a backflip in the middle and they hold up fine!

Oh trust me I believe you I've seen your videos.

**jtalaue** · 05-14-2012 06:56 PM

I wonder about their motors have you heard any good stuff on them?

**50togo** · 05-14-2012 07:08 PM

Nope haven't checked those out

**50togo** · 05-14-2012 07:19 PM

I hit those jumps this weekend took its toll landed almost straight up on one wheel and bent a Traxxas cvd and broke a pin. That's why I tried the gpm cvd

That had made me smile. NO offense jtalaue.

There is no such thing on MERV, they forgot to include it and unfortunately theres no aftermarket part for that.

It has been relisted again with 4 available.

**jtalaue** · 05-18-2012 10:21 AM

The TRA7052 drive cups and TRA7153 when installed the steel drive shafts doesn't seem to go all the way in its almost to the edge of the drive cup so when I brake it pops out. My pivot balls are screwed almost all the way with the RPM ARMS I don't know what else I can do to get it in there at least half way any suggestions?

**Evgen** · 05-18-2012 10:58 AM

what knuckles do you use?

**jtalaue** · 05-18-2012 11:14 AM

Majority of the steel drive shafts doesn't go even clost to half way in the steel drive cups. I even screwed my pivot balls to the end of the rpm arms and still not looking right.

**50togo** · 05-18-2012 12:02 PM

i run gh carriers with traxxas axles and mine fit good

Man mine don't even fit like yours and now I don't know how to fix this issue.

can you show some pictures?

When I get home I'll use my canon dslr camera to take clear and better pictures. I would really hate to have to buy a different set but by the looks of your pictures there must be something that's now set right. Thanks a lot for these pictures if you have more on a top view or whatever I can compare them I would appreciate that. Thanks.

**CMD-J** · 05-18-2012 03:41 PM

Any chance you still have the parts bag and/or order receipt, to read the parts no. printed on?
I think there are Slash CVDs too, maybe you got that. Wouldnt be the first time i heard of a misshipment or order..
Do you run stock push/tie rods?

Mine with HR knuckles, RPM arms and GPM linkage:
