ok ill look around , i might find what i need .

well i found a body that i want, rims and tires so far.

they are not aluminum though

thats the thing i was about to say, no rims from there. :(

whats shocks did you get?

these : http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...-Silver&cat=17

i am getting powerstroke ones. way more pimpin in my opinion. but i need help picking everything else

powerstroke looks cool, i just like the silver and the price for powerstrokes are pretty high for me, the shocks that i bought , just look beautiful to me

they do look nice. but what do i need to make a good solid basher?>

Oh yeh and post the things you need help with.

well the powerstrokes to me dont look very durable, the ones i bought are aluminum so i assume that they are durable for jumping and bashing just like described.

Toby, dont worry about bashing a $1000 truck. The hole point of spending that much money is so you can bash it. When you spend that much money you are able to bash with less problems and less parts breaking. I have about $2000 into my truck and I bash the heck out of it. Sand, dirt, street, track, you name it Ive crashed it. Bashing and speed is why I have spent the money. When you bash a stock emaxx or other truck in the long run you would probaly end up spending the same amount of money on your truck. Some people rather spend money on a cheap part that breacks multiple times. Remember you dont need to figure out your hole truck right now. You only need to figure out what you need for the amount of money you are going to spend. In other words if you have $1500 then figure out what you are going to get for #1500. If you have $500 than figure out what you need for $500. Dont drive rack your brain trying to figure out your hole truck at once, just one step at a time.

ryan is right, and 1 more thing added to that is once you spent all that money you will probably be thinking youve wasted money and time, well it all pays off with having some fun! ryan what do you have on your maxx ? post soon. thnx
