    What parts can be used on the stampede from other rc vehicles

    so today i got home from doin some work around 7 oclock i had 2 batteries charged up, i burnt through the first and half way through the second an i stopped. i dont have a wheelie bar so my body and bumper mount are getting beat to ****, i went into my little traxxas corner in my basement and put my old slash bumper on it, it looks ridiculous but works wonders it substitutes for a wheelie bar for now and maybe for ever it works amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Slash 2wd, Rustler, Bandit are 'mostly' universal. The chassis's are different, and steering is different, but other than that very similar. Bumpers, transmission, shock towers, etc are ALL interchangeable.

    I thought the slash mounted differently.

    It bolts up just the same. Lots of parts are universal like Toyboarder said.

    The bandit arms, rim mounts, axles, c-blocks, camber links do not interchange.

    Everything from a Stampede/Rustler/Slash/Bandit are interchangeable. It may take a few parts to accomplish but all of them will fit. Most of the nitro Stampede/Rustler/Nitro sport suspension parts will also fit the electric models. You just have to make sure the parts you choose are the proper length so they work together.

    You can also use many of the legacy parts if you want. Just take a little research.

    Rustler tires on a Slash looks pretty funny too. It just doesn't look quite right.

    Bandit rims will not fit onto/pede/rusty/slash axles.
    Bandit arms will not work with pede links.
    If your gonna use bandit stuff, you will either need to use all the bandit stuff for that corner, or custom fit the other parts.
    Did I explain thoroughly this time?

    The wheels will fit on all 5mm traxxas axles. Just remove the hex's.

    Ever tried? Go see if you can put a pede rim on a bandit axle, or a bandit rim on a pede ft axle. Let me know how that works out. You cannot just buy the pede rims and bolt them onto your bandit.

    Of course not. You have to install a hex first since the bandit just uses pins. All of them use the same stub axle.

    Slash 2wd bumpers. ALL fit the Stampede. They bolt right up.



    Mount right up to the 4 bolts on any of the bulkheads. Same with the Rustler as well.



    The rustler and slash are even more similar since they both use the same bellcrank steering, and same hardware. The slash is like a cross between the Rustlers front end, and the Pedes Chassis braces.

    Pictures are useless in such a discussion. But the specs Digger posted are very useful. With RPM 2.2" wheels there will be 1.3mm of threads left to attach a nut (From wheel to end of pede axle is 6.7mm or less). Since the RPM wheels are extra thick its easy to say just about any Stampede wheel will fit. It will require some thread locker with thick wheels but still possible. My ball studs have less threads than that and never come loose.

    No it is not possible. Its not the lack of threads. There is half as much room between the pin and where the threads start (look at the pics! Very useful lol) on the bandit axles. the threads will not even poke out of the pede rim. Jeez! I am done trying to explain. The thread is yours reaper. Misinform as you wish.

    slash with pede tires = lots of body trimming

    or slash body on a pede = still lots of trimming and it looks stupid
