Ok i have took away and added many things first Away with the ti arms and 3.3 stock turnbuckles. I added a single speed, gmaxx 3.3 race suspension, MIP 3.3 cvds, (man these things are thick) maxx 3.3 tubes, center dogbone, and some carbon fiber hinge pins. And still on the way are some wicked tire and rim combination on 23mm hubs. Did have one question for you guys though. the cvds/dogbones for the center of the truck won't fit. I grinded the front one to make it fit but it became to tight and it fits but it binds. The rear one was not grinded but it fits snug and binds too. I am using the flm hybrids with hb diffs and hb diff cups for pinions, and an FLM dogbone in the rear and a rc monster 72mm dogbone in the front. Do you guys have any idea on what i could do or what sizes i need thanks.

Here are the pics (sorry for poor quality)

Looks awesome. Sorry, Can't really help with the cvd's/dog bones. I know how you feel... not being able to drive it, etc. I can't drive my buggy either.

GorillaMaxx360 05.29.2007 06:52 PM

it cool man, but thanks for the complement. As for driving it i am not to mad becasuse it is going to be a while anyway because i need a radio, charger, batts, dogbones, motor, and misc. small stuff.

Hey G-Maxx....

We'll have to get out there and "do battle"!

G-Maxx/FLM/Quark/BL Motor??? takes on Supermaxx/FLM/MambaMax/Neu1515!

What do you say????

GorillaMaxx360 05.29.2007 09:09 PM

yeah

Procharged5.0 05.29.2007 09:13 PM

Lets see who gets their truck together first...

Odd's are you'll beat me to it.

btw, are you in the city or a surrounding suburb???

GorillaMaxx360 05.29.2007 10:03 PM

actually you probably will beat me to it. I am hoping at best to finish it at the end of summer but no guarantee. I am in the north west suburbs.

BTW any info on how long til the hrs slippers are done and where to buy

GM360, i really like the red accents on your truck. It looks like she's really coming along. One thing If I may, I would get the ti hingpins, you will not be sorry. I had some that were cf and they snapped and wore easily. ti is your best bet my man...

Ti hingepins all the way!

RE: HSR Slippers......

They will be back on track shortly. Work & family demands (financial demands too) have sidelined the project but it's coming "back on line" and I hope to have the final product available late June/early July.

They will hopefully be sold thru RC-Monster (I'll chat w/Mike when I have actual product to ship) plus available thru Al's hobbies in Elmhurst, Venture Hobbies in Wheeling, possibly Leisure Hours in Joliet, and www.rcbros.com.

GorillaMaxx360 05.30.2007 07:18 PM

about the pins they came in today. I currently have the ti pins in the arms now that came with the suspension. the only reason i got ti pins is because people said i would be bending metal pins like speghitti so i thought i would give the cf ones a try but i have 8 hinge pins from the suspension kit, 8 extra gmaxx ti pins and 4 steel flm pins. What are your opinions how long do you think the ti one will last. Mid to low jumping for me, nothing really to jump here but if i find something i would be very eager to jump it as long as it is not over 15ft.

Looks good, you should have saved up for VBS. Looks good otherwise.

ClodMaxx 05.31.2007 09:52 PM
