I'm in the process of stretching it so I can put 2.2 tires and rims on it. It's a blast in stock form and crawls great but I want more clearance. The best part of this truck is that it uses 1/10 electronics instead of mini stuff.     Let me know what you think. Feel free to give me idea's as well as sometimes my brain don't work so good. LOL Shaun |

I'm gonna use maxx shocks on it. So far the cants are working great but they will have to come off when I finish the front. I'm just waiting on some links and the wife to decide what tires and rims she wants on it as it will be her truck. Can't wait to get some 2.2 rims and tires so it'll have more clearance.

Actually the new body will be painted by the wife. It's actually her truck but she shares with me. lol She's gonna come up with something wicked for it.
The rims are about an 1 1/2 and the tires just over 3". Even with the half stretch this is amazing. The climbing is much better now but will of course be better with the 2.2 tires.

I think these will be the new tire and rims that'll I'll be using on the tlt. They are from a Kyosho Double Dare. They look a little big now but when the front is stretched they'll look good I think. I put a stock tlt tire and a 2.2 tire in the pic for comparison. The next thing is the body. After the front links of course! LOL    What do you think? For this size tire should I put on a pinion with a couple more teeth? Shaun |

It is great. I will have to lock the center diff though. I can't wait to extend the front end out and then it will be awesome. It's gonna get a Grave digger body til the figures out which body she wants on there. Yes they make the body look very small. The truck is running a GM v3r esc and a team orion 19t motor. It doesn't move very fast but has plenty of power for climbing.
Thanks for the kind words guys!

It's non programmable but it can use from 4 to 10 cells and it goes down to a 18t motor. I got that from their website. I'm sorry mine is also the gmv3r.

So far I've had no probs with the esc. I'm gonna make up some 8 cell packs for it and see what happens. Well they'll be 2 4 cells as I don't have a charger that'll do over 7.
