BEC....you need it and it's only another $25 lol....seriously though that is one place you can't skimp.

 

[stevew]

That depends on your wallet LOL>

well i have a wallet because I'm cheap LOL

Definetly get a bec for it the best 25$ someone could spend in my opinion. I'm in Lincoln so not too far

well if i only run a 2cell i should be ok without the bec correct?

 

[Natedog]

LOL

Yes, but it would be better with the BEC that way you get the power to the servo that it needs under load.

great because I think ill wait for a bec right now.my problem is a buy to much stuff and work on it for ever and get bored with it too quick.it happened on my first samurai.
I bought it for $700 with brand new bfg 31's and wheels it only needed a carb so before i found one i started the spoa.got it done. then i found my carb but eneded up buying a 16v,auto trans,rear end,front diff from the guy for $1600 then i started the axle swap again got it all done.then I found a suspension kit local for real cheap $600 so i added that. then i found an 85 toy for $400 and swapped out the axles again.I had spent close to $5k in about 3 months on this project and never drove it ever.

so i try and play with my toys first then upgrade them.
