Yeah, I think that's an excellent Idea :lol:....

Guys, I just purchased a set of UE 8 spider Ultralites! Its time to get serious about some bullet proofing.

Thanx!

It will happen! :intello::yes:

How much did you drop for the diffs?

Is this the kindof thing your are supposed to post up? :neutral: :whistle: $225 shipped :lol: Lets just say I like doing my standing backflips that much!

They will certainly be tough...

The toughest

:party:

Yep I'm addicted:oh::mdr::intello::tongue::yes:

I love all of my UE 8-spiders! Just remember to use a little thinner oil in them, since the added spider gears makes your oil act and feel like it is much thicker. If you normally run 50k front and 10k rear, run 30k front and 7k rear in the 8-spiders.

Makes sense thanks!

Do they make 8-spider diffs for the Revo?

they will fit in a revo carrier Mike used to or may be making again, Check TDC57's erevo posts in the gorilla maxx section....same as emaxx, different case. Mike was going for a v2 or v3 case as why they dropped off the site for a bit, they fit them (6s+8s) That would be the last you ever needed to talk to those revo gears, again properly shimmed.

Way off in the future (after I build my savvy and my boat) I'm thinking about building a 3s super lite maxx. What do you guys think?

Superlite maxx... I don't think they are anything special anymore. But for bashing, sure. Back in the day I would have loved a superlite maxx! It would be a great racing platform if used in conjunction with Gorillamaxx chassis (RacerX front and rear ends).

Super lite like less the 10 lbs! not UE SuperMaxx. Not special? Get out. :whip::intello:

Building is always fun. $225...yeah you got it bad...:intello:

I was thinking of the other supermaxx parts... RacerX is what I meant, those are the good parts to use.

Yeah but I would what it to be practical also. Thinking of running like a 3000mah 35c 3s(11.1v) lipo battery and a 50-65mm long 3000-4000kv motor. :neutral::neutral::neutral: Whats the very lightest Maxx chassis Electric or otherwise ever made? Would it be the UE pred or the DUH Blackbird or one of the GMaxxes? I know I've seen at least one +10 page mega-old yet high profile thread on here dedicated to the topic.

O love a Maxx nearly done thread...what 6-7 pages , still not done lol. Want a Maxx that doesnt break http://rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13590 I swear its done... Never !
\


g-4 maxx= 15% lighter + tit flex arms Ti 20% lighter, UE diffs 70% heavier, im under 10 lbs dry no lipos or tires 12+ loaded

Well I've got this expensive truck now so I wanted it to not break so I could drive it. Because I already had bulks the FLM hybrids would put me around the same price. I've seen UE 8s go for $300 but you are right I've got it bad. :mdr:

Your posts here are no longer needed here. :tongue: JK. :lol::na: Really though have you ever seen a UE Razorback on the web?

But really I think I'm just dreaming about the low weight Maxx. It is never going to happen. The current Maxx project will likely never end. And then I've got the Savvy to civilize. :whistle:

Yeah we Maxx builders are pathetic. *Cough* Mark! :rofl: We are never ever done! Except perhaps Jordan's build and a hand full of others like some of Mikak's where they is no way to spend anymore money!! One thing I haven't seen is a BL Razorback! :surprised: That would be stupid.

Nice truck! Jayjay! Yeah mine is fairly low weight at 11lbs running. Really one of the few things I wait is a full(yet 4 shocks) setbacked highimpact RacerX with the 8mm CVDs. I think I have a slightly tweaked stub axles thingy.

Lightweight Emaxx = easy, if you know how:

6.8lbs :mdr: (thats Serums' btw)...

Here are the SuperLight threads:

I'm not much of a Emaxx fan anymore after buying my first Truggy but I have to give credit where it's due. That's a nice Race application for a Maxx.

Back in the day, all the UE guys who raced the small-block Maxx class were building LRMs (Lite-Race-Maxxes), which were sub-7lb RTR nitro Maxxes...using the Predator chassis and the either the Pro-Line Wide-Maxx suspension or stock Traxxas 2.5 suspension, with plastic bulks and everything else.

I am sure, though, that you could get a brushless Maxx just as light by using the carbon-fiber Gorillamaxx chassis and other well chosen parts.

Yeah that is one of the trucks I remember seeing/ Reading about! You know I really miss Serum! He's said he doesn't come here very often anymore because BL is so mainstream right now... why doesn't he do make some practical outrunner builds. One of those not yet released higher KV(1100kv I think) CC outrunners would be sweet!

Yeah I was checking that out yesterday for about 30mins (awesome:oh:) then when I came back today the link doesn't work... Can you tell me the words that you searched and in what subforum?

Yeah but sadly its just a dream for me. But I'm very happy with what I have now.:yes:

Wow, I wonder why the link stopped working...? Here are the direct links Zack:

Good stuff! Thanks mark!

Does it void the warrenty to run without the fan? I'm thinking yes.

Yes. It does void the warranty.

I figured. Thanx man!

Are there any 23mm rims that are offset that fit Maxx size tires wheels not 40 series. I'm asking because the ones I have now seen above don't fit the badlands very well. The badlands slump over to one side and stay that way (until the turn back the other way) espcially when turning at speed.

Thanx guys!
-Zack

Not sure if these are standard or 1/2" offset but the price is to cheap to pass up.

You need to check all the auctions prior to comitting because there may be different listings for the same item for a much different price.

There is/are...

I couldn't resist looking around for another deal when I noticed this;

"Note: The seller of this item is away until July 13, 2009. You may purchase the item, but there may be a delay in processing your order."

You know what? I think I have proline maxx size wheels! I bought them back in 06 or 07 and can't remember. Has anybody else noticed the slump?

Thanx for all the help!
