Took her trail running in Georgia, Rolled over pretty hard and busted the gears in my Traxxas servo. I installed a spare I had on hand, HiTec HS-7954SH.

Had a fun tear down of the stock axles, everything looked brand new in there(like the day I got it and greased em up out of the box)! Thanks marine grease! While doing this I had to replace some rod ends that were close to failure.
 
I smoked my motor and now I'm on the interwebs learning about my new favorite money pit
Here's a pic of my junk cuz pics are fun :flipoff:

Had to raise the front bumper to eliminate rubbing with the new tires.

Did you widen the wheel base? Or is that just wheel/tire increase I'm seeing. Looks great!

I did widen the wheel base with Junfac blue wheel spacers. The length of the wheel base is the same.

Well, the mickey t's I had on it are sold to a friend of mine for his g6 project, along with my original axial wheels and the CI deuces wild foams I had ordered to run with the compasses, which are way too stiff. :/

Kept the lil' novas in the compasses and they're awesome, I forget why I ever took them off. Also made a new battery mount that makes the truck pretty well balanced from front to rear, put a softer set of springs back in the front, and ran it a bit out back. Seems a lot more stable descending from a steep climb, and doesn't tip forward as easily. It does seem to like carrying a tire on an off camber (steep) climb, so I think Beef tubes will be next on the list to add some unsprung weight.
