Thanks! I took me a few times to figure out that I should have just bought aluminum diff cups though, I stripped 3 plastic cups in the rear and 1 in the front before I finally went with the aluminum ones. Hopefully I wont ever have anymore problems with the diffs though. Even if I do, those FLM hybrid cases will make it so much easier to get to the diffs.

I too like the rear wing setup you have!,, and a nice collection of builds too..

Keep up the great work..

Thanks! I still wish I could have it setting farther back, but I am afraid to use spacers any longer than 1/4'' and the current screws it has, as it would probably become weak. But those braces sure help alot. And I actually got the links for the wing mount braces off my crawler, they were used a chassis stiffeners, and the spacers for the 1/4'' wing mount setback were also the shock standoffs/spacers from the crawler.

I was thinking the whole time "I need to get one of these so my little nephews (5 of them) can bash it about. I havent even finished my 8ight build and Im afraid to let them drive it. I need a monster truck now....where does it all end....

Thanks!
Glad to know people get humor out of my terrible driving when I bash.

Yeah, Ryan talked me into those. But I sort of like them, they go well with the motor and my other blue aluminum.


Coming up within the next 30 minutes, some pictures of my Medusa 36-80 mounted in the Maxx!
