    Noob Checking in!

    Hey guys, my name is Joey.

    I have owned a slash 4X4 VXL in the past, loved it and sold it. Bought a stampede 4x4 Vxl, also loved it. Heres me bashing.....errr.....trying to fly it. Hehe.

    So, I sold the Stampede and just ordered a Kawasaki Slash VXL 4x4.

    I will be putting on the green RPM A-Arms. I have researched on the forum and found some people are for Aluminum, some against etc...

    My Question is, since I am going for a green and silver color scheme, WHo should I get the aluminum from? Here are the parts I will be ordering....

    Aluminum Shock towers
    Aluminum Caster, and hub assemblies front and rear
    RPM bumpers
    Aluminum Motor Mount
    Aluminum motor plate
    bearing adapter for slipper (melted the one on my stampede)

    What company has the most reliable in fit and finish (No drilling or :Oh well it kind of fits,", )


    STCR, integy, the Toyz, etc......





    How are "The Toyz" products?


    Thanks guys!

    Welcome to a great forum. Certainly staw away from Integy if you must buy aluminum. Take lots of pics and upload some more killer jumps!

    LOL @ Pro Mod Steve! Well I wont be as crazy with the slash as I was with the stampede.

    so stay away from integy, will do.

    What about "The Toyz". Any good?

    If not, I will go STCR

    Rpm for arms STRC for everything else except the shock towers. They are a bit to thin to hold up in any type of crash. Golden Horizon makes a aluminum shock tower modeled after the stocker.
