Got a good start, maybe shocks and steering servo ,might want to go with something a little better if you can.

ok what kind of shock 90 mm 100 mm

 

[ROCKEDUP RICKY]

ok what kind of shock 90 mm 100 mm

I use losi crawler shocks . some use traxxas big bore. search and read about them there's a few choic"thumbsup"es out there.

 

[redbaron]

The Yeah Racing shock are decent shocks and should work OK for you. But the steering servo......scrap the Tower Pro. You got a nice build going with some really nice components, don't make your truck's steering the weak point. Get a good 300-400 oz servo. Something along the lines of the JR8711 or a Hitec 7955TG.

Also , it will be quite wide with those wheels if they are normal axial offset .

I know your not very good at taking advice from anyone, but look at those threads and pull out all the key points and jot them down on paper like I did. Those are the ones that helped me, and I can show you the 8 pages of tips, tricks, pics, and BS i jotted down during the 2 month period before getting my berg. You better be VERY good at soldering, because it is the key ingredient to the bergs. I would contact kamikaze for the dig tray for the chassis Im selling you, it will get you set right. If you annoy everyone else enough to the point where they wont help you anymore, just give me a PM, and try to write in correct english, its hard to help someone when you cannot read what the heck there saying. Good luck with your build man, cant wait to see you show up all the haters :thumbsup:

Don't skimp on wheels. With 11 volts and 45T motors its easy to strip a plastic wheel hex. Get a good offset and get delrin or aluminum if you can. "thumbsup"
