I had the non-belted 2.8 trenchers when I ran 2S and 3S. They were decent, but did spin a lot in the grass. Not nearly like the slicks that come on the stampede 4x4 vxl (2.8 talons). Those were...
I run the GTR's on my stampede 4x4, which is the same as the hoss regarding suspension. They hold up really well.
I use the following on mine:
Associated 70wt front rear
VG Springs/GTR Shocks...
I'd agree, but if he already has the steel cvd's, it would be a bit more cost effective to use 1/2" offset adapters.
If not, then the wide kit is likely the better solution.
At 10mm+, I'd go with the wide arms instead. If just 10mm is all your looking for, it won't add a lot of strain.
I ran hot racing 10mm on my stampede 4x4 just to make it a bit more stable, wider...
A jato is nothing like any of those. :)
It's a handful at speed, but gets there a lot easier than a single speed 2wd stadium like the RC10GT or XXX-NT or nitro rustler.
I usually ran mine...
I don't know... I know I used new screws with mine, but I have a lot of various lengths on hand. So I used the longest I could I think. That's what I usually do with diffs. Especially when they are...
After a nasty crash with my slampede:

Living in a 2 bdrm apartment has it's challenges... carrying everything down 3 flights of stairs is one, storage is another. My office is my RC room, so half the room is RC stuff.

Seeing them side by side is really nice. I didn't think the LP's would be that much larger.
From what I've read, when you have really high quality packs, they tend to be better matched cells (similar IR) that discharge at a similar rate, so balancing isn't as big of a deal on them all the...
Really though, the 3.3 would be plenty for a truck the size/scale of the hoss. Throw in an e-revo 2 speed and get to it!
For me, the 3.3 wasn't enough for the revo. It was too long/heavy for my...
I've run the following on my BLX185:
Hobbystar 3665 3100kv
Arrma 4074 2050kv BLX2050
Traxxas/Castle 4074 2200kv from ERBEv1
hpi tork 2200kv
The HPI tork is running off it currently.
You...
It's the tooth size/pitch on the spur/pinion. The larger the number, the larger the tooth.
All I have are Mod .8, 32P and Mod 1. My eJato and stampede run M.8/32P, the rest use M1.
I think M.8...
Just avoid landing on power and you should be ok until you get the other diff upgraded.
As far as I know, the upgraded ring/pinions are just machined and helical cut to make them stronger with the same gear ratio.
The outdrives come with the diff internals that use the i-bar like the...
The parts I listed would work for both the front and rear diffs on a stampede/slash with the stock axle sliders or the MIP X-Duty versions (I have those).
The mistake I made was ordering this:...
In a slash, on 3S, they should hold up fine really, but best to get the i-bar/spiders with proper output shafts and hd cups. I made the mistake and got the wrong outdrives for mine.
I run my on 4S...
Or get a discharger. ;)
This one balance discharges:

These just discharge at varying rates:...
That reminds me... mine with the VG springs on it won't rebound well at all now with the truetrack on it and standard #2 pistons/50wt on the rear. Need to see if I have binding or just now need...
You could, but the tray is only deep enough to hold one pack securely and it will rely in the posts/straps to hold the other one.
You could dedicate a couple 2S packs and wrap them with reinforced...
Didn't think of using the kevlar string... not sure how much it stretches. At the time I bought it, like I said, I as trying to build limiters for a baja, which is a big heavy machine. I didn't have...
Yeah, so that does nothing for your pushrod ends. Only helps save your shock ends. I'm not sure why people do that... if your going to bother protecting the shocks, why not go longer and protect the...
Should tell you what the input needed is on the bottom. I think this is the same as that charger, best image I could find of the bottom of the 2972 charger:...
How are your limiting straps connected? If they are connected to the rocker like many do, then your only helping your shock end, not the pushrod ends.
I made my own out of cable and ran them from...
Looks like the link to the tamiya bushings went bad.
