Is this chassis good for bashing, like is it strong enough? Or is it better to just stick with the stock chassis? I want a lighter chassis but it still has to be just asstrong or stronger that the stock plastic chassis.
Looks like a-lot of work! I am glad that they now make 1 inch wheel extenders! I got a set on E-bay for $20.00 and it adds 2 inches to the front and rear width
Ya they work ok but wheel wideners put huge amounts of unnecessary pressure on your bearings and bearing carriers which wears them out 10 times faster.
My set up might be a little more work but your cheap way out is going to cost you allot more in the long run. not to mention I also improved the overall function/movement of the suspension so that the shocks work better with less stress but hey what do I know. lol later man thanks for checking out my vid
Hey nice truck are you going to the races Pratt is going to have next month and can you make a wide pede conversion kit just got done making my mamba pede
Ya I can make a kit for you, sorry it took so long to respond I have been working crazy hours, but let me know what you want to do. I might be there if its on the weekends
It dose. lol The front suspension works easier but didn't lose and spring strength. I cant wait to try it out. I just need the rain to stop dammit haha
Nothing yet its raining here and this stampede isnt waterproof lol so hopefully on sunday i will get a video made but i tried it in the house and it works very well

Well it is a traxxas so its pretty strong and im not a hardcore basher I like to race more so it should hold up pretty good.
But if it dose break ill just fix it lol I used all stock traxxas parts so it will be cheap to fix
