Are the blades in good shape? Are the gears in good shape? Do you have anything caught around the motors/gears/etc. that could be causing binding?

There are shock bushings on the parts trees for the Ultra Shocks, included with the vehicle. Have you tried those?

The Cats are fun little R/Cs, slow and somewhat "toyish," but fun. You can still find parts for them on places like eBay, last I knew. I used to own one years ago, fixed it up, and played with it for...

Hmm, I'm not quite sure I understand the question/problem. The internals should just pop right into the diff housing. Stick all four pins into the new diff housing, install the output gear/axle,...

I do think that having a hobby grade vehicle would be preferable to a "toy." Being able to replace parts and upgrade as their skill level rises are great things should they really take to the hobby....

I'm a fan of the Big Bore shocks. I also have upgraded the stock Ultra Shocks with aluminum caps and the Traxxas TiN shock shafts with great success. :)

Glad you were able to source some decals, hope they don't take too long to ship! Its too bad some of the parts are getting hard to find for these boats. They are such fun boats, it's a shame that...

The better questions are why are you considering upgrading and what do you hope to gain from said upgrade?

If you're trying to identify which version of T-Maxx you have, you're going to want to post a picture (or a few). :)

Sounds like a good excuse for an upgrade (as annoying as break downs can be)! :thumbup:

I had to remove and edit several posts in this thread due to non-Traxxas vehicle discussion. Please avoid discussion of non-Traxxas vehicles, as such discussion is against the forum rules. Thanks.

I've been using it for several years, wish I had found it sooner. It's so much easier than trying to check every now and then. Sometimes the messages are delayed enough that the item may already be...

Did someone say e-clips? :eek:

All models of the E-Maxx have always used Traxxas' Ultra Shocks in XX-Long size, part number 2656 (stock) or 2656T (TiN coated); either of those will be exact replacements for your stock shafts.

Yeah, anything other than the Blast will be far too big and too fast for a pool. Even then, I don't know how much fun a boat that size (it's not that big, but still) would be in such a small space.

Did you check/try replacing the batteries in the transmitter? Perhaps that got left on and the batteries died?

If there's ever anything I'm looking for (especially if it's a rarer item), I set up notifications/alerts on eBay so I get notified when/if one is listed for sale.

Ignorance is bliss! :wacko:

(Just be sure to keep an eye on it when the temps start to get warmer.)

Glad you're back in business, enjoy!

Sounds like a fun project, I'm looking forward to your updates and pictures! :cool:

Glad you're rolling again. I'm sure most all of us have done that at one point or another! :D

Sounds like E/T-Maxx parts; those trucks used 8 XX-Long shocks (same as Rustler rear) and had upper and lower suspension arms.

Looks nice, the folding mirrors are a nice touch!

I know it's a basic question, but have you replaced the transmitter batteries during your trouble shooting?

Careful, don't jinx yourself! :wacko:

Glad you're back in business, enjoy! :cool:
