Thanks! No stickers for me, I'm not that type of guy :005:.
The torn rubber boot thing tore almost as soon as I put it on there. All four of them on the front pivot balls are torn similarly, and I'm pretty sure I didn't install them improperly (I had to replace the front knuckles, and replaced the rubber boots at the same time). |
That's odd. I've only torn one boot in quite a lot of running. Maybe you just got a batch that was weather-worn...

Metal, think you can get a picture of the underside?

It's not ready yet :018:. Still need to make some guards to keep debris from the center diff for when I start driving in dirt (it's fine without protection on grass and street).
I got some real work done today. The UBEC was taken off, and a receiver pack mounted. The wiring is the cleanest of any car I have ever had. Got 72" of velcro for straps (used 48" of it). Improved the battery mounts with some polycarbonate angle. Re-filled the center diff (it's missing the case o-ring, so it leaks, a replacement is on the way). I hit a curb at about 15mph (it was dark and I wasn't watching the truck), and that cause the batteries to slide forward. One of the polycarbonate angle pieces snapped from the battery pushing it forward, and the other just got pushed out of the way. I guess I'll have to put some straps that go along the length of the batteries, as the latitudinal straps seem to not be able to hold the batts tight enough. |
Metalman, the Tmaxx 2.5 front body posts will work better and turn the body pins to lengthwise to the chassis, so the pins fit better in front with the scoop. I have the same body on my G2R and the Tmaxx posts fit perfect.

That's good news! The bad new is, I just spent the rest of my cash (for now) on replacing the front right upper arm that broke when I was getting big air in the street. It now has a RPM arm, so hopefully it should be stronger.

Took the Revo to the local indoor 1/10 track. The track was much too small for the Revo. I pretty much had to use 1/2 throttle or less on the entire track since it's so tight.
Now I do know why everyone likes the Revos. They are AWESOME trucks! They withstand a lot of abuse without breaking. Here's a video of BP-Revo, myself, and a couple of our friends with our trucks: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...9&q=socal+bash The blue MT is my Revo, the black/red MT is BP-Revo's Revo, the 1/10 4wd truck (purple chassis) is my MT2, the Revo 2.5 is BP-Revo's (but his friend drove it most of the time), and the other 1/10 2wd truck is my friend's Nitro Rustler 2.5. |
Nice video. Looks like a fun bashing spot. How did the mt2 do in the rough stuff like over all the rocks, etc? I know the revo was just awesome on that surface from the video.

Many of you will recall that the x-braces on BP-Revo's chassis are bent. For this reason he didn't want to push his truck too hard and bend the x-braces more. |
Oh! So bp ran with the braces bent or bent them back?!
