Nice job Wolf! And great color choice
yeah, mine were a bit on the wobbly side too. But as ReglarGuy said, it's pretty common. I have yet to purchase a full set of pre-glued tires where at least 1 wasn't a bit off
I pulled mine the other day and they had about half of the fluid they should have. I got some 60k fluid and added to both. was driving on a really slick icy sledding hill yesterday and was getting...

Here is how the Metallic Red looks
Took mine to the park where there was an iced over sledding hill. Man that was fun! The hill was really slick , but it just flew right up it with no problem.
Got my shock covers put on.

Also checked the fluid in the front and rear diffs. They were by...
There is a power button. On the ESC. Press it to turn on. Hold for 1 sec to turn off.
While I realize these covers are made with breathable fabric, I would still be concerned that it would hold in excess heat and prevent the necessary airflow. Especially on a truck like this. Can...
Looks good. I got the same in metallic red, but I haven't put them on yet.
Yeah, I was going to go home and check the diffs, but decided I would rather have fun running it instead :) I was pleasantly surprised with the wheelie ability with that gearing myself. Wasn't...
Just did a 30 min run trying out 20/50 gearing and 50wt shock oil. The run was mostly on pavement and some grass. Temp on motor topped out at 135F . Temp outside was 30F . This truck really is insane...
Got the body all sprayed up with plastidip this weekend . Coated the inside with black and clear coated the outside with a gloss protection layer. Not sure if it will help a ton, but was a fun...
Thanks for the advice :) I have some black as well, so I might just do that.
Glad to know someone has been successful with that method
Got my shock oil changed out to 50wt today and lubed everything up. We have been spoiled here in Utah for the past couple of winters with very little snow in the valley, but this year, the storms...
That's odd. I used paypal for my purchase. It was the usual "Secure Checkout with Paypal" button.
Nice! I ordered the metallic red myself :)
If you are looking for shock covers, these are now available. I saw them on ebay first, but people had them bid up to $41 for a set. You can jut go to their website and they are only $15

I have to say, I purchased a Heatsink like the one you pictured, just a little bigger. However, the when comparing the heatsink itself to the stock one, the stock one is much more robust. It has a...
Same with mine, pulled straight off fairly easily. Did the thermal paste as well
I put a 20/50 pinion/Spur set on today and tightened up the slipper clutch.
I had ordered a heatsink/fan combo from hobby wing, but after comparing it to the stock heatsink, it just looks too...
Not to get off topic, but is that a Big Red as your picture? I can't see enough detail in the picture to tell
If you have a smart phone, you can get an app such as digihud speedometer. It will record max speed using GPS . You just need to attach the phone to the truck and do some runs.
This is a BIG truck. I think they geared it so it would be a good balance for everyone. I am sure there were many factors such as motor Temps and the fact that something this large and heavy can be...
Look at the manual again. The tsm must be off (which is all the way to the left) not at 50% before adjusting the steering trim. I just read it again to make sure
Big thing everyone needs to realize is you have to turn tsm off before adusting the steering trim, then you can turn it back on again
