XTM Rage 1/18th Monster Truck

[rschoi_75]

A little tuning update:
- I found out the stock oil is 10wt. I switched it out for 40wt all around and switched the springs to white Mini Quake springs. The white MQ springs are actually softer... contrary to what I said before. I also found out that Xray M18T springs will fit, and work very well. The Black M18NT springs would be a great choice.
- I also modded the knuckles with some screws for extra strength. (pic is of a MQ knuckle, but same thing applies for the Rage)
you will need a 1/16" bit with a 2mmx10mm screw. You may also need to dremel off any exposed screw on the inside of the knuckle.

This is definately the best mod to do to a mini quake. I have most likely broken at least 5 sets of knuckles. Finally drilled the knuckles and installed the screws like the pic and they have held up just fine. Definately worth the work!
