Yep I know I need to lower the body, gonna have the hack the bottom of the posts for that. Its going to get a host of new upgrades:

TTR Rage Chassis Kit (as soon as their back in stock)
Stock Clod tires
New body of some sort
pair of 16 turns or so
Oil filled Aluminum Shocks
TTR Aggressor/Eliminator Steering Kit

Thats the list for now, I'm sure it will Grow

Congratulations on the new addition and it's a real beauty too!

Be careful with those chrome Imex wheels. They're absolutely gorgeous, but they're also notorious for breaking on that line that goes around the little lug nuts. Make sure you don't sky your truck too high if you do use them.

Aw man I'd leave it! Stock chassis with those tires looks killer!

I'd put a Pro-Line Blazer body on it and maybe some oil shocks and be done with it!

No matter what you do, you got a good deal on it :trk

Nice truck. How do you like the tires? My brother has them on his Clod and it's like night and day between those and the stockers. I think it's actually the foams that make the biggest difference in handling.

Thanks guys for all the Complements:

I know what you mean about stock clods, I love them, after this one becomes a TTR Racer I'm gonna do a Stock Clod, they are a lot of fun. The Jury is still out on the Imex Wheels and Tires, on the pavement, love them, we'll find out about dirt, as there is a fair amount of snow here right now.

Thanks for the warning on the Chrome Wheels, obviously right now the truck doesn't do much jumping, I think I switch too a brand new set of stock Clod wheels and Tires for the TTR chassis.

I'll be sure to keep you all posted on the TTR buildup, I absoluetly love the EVX setup, two Venom 3000s are sitting in it as we speak, just love the EVX. Thanks again guys for all the help and kind words, and Good luck with all your trucks.:tami

If they are stock clod motors 540 can,
and you have 12 cells on them, they are fun, but are short lived.

Take one of those batteries out, make a jumper for the other wire harness.,
and get some speed gems 15 or lower turns..

BUT, if they are 550 cans like titans off a e-maxx or a twn force or so,
you can run both packs in there all day...

Yeah I would like too get some Emaxx motors, are they any quicker than the 540s? I've never driven a Emaxx. Again thanks for all the help again.

Thanks Savageman, only going to get better, you know, as clods tend to do. Love the truck on your avatar.

I'm going to be running titans on 12 cells in my stock clod, but something tells me it is going to be almost overkill, so I might just get a couple of mild mod motors for it. I need to figure out what pinions to use though

Let me know how that goes, I'm seriously thinking about doing that since I have the EVX in it which was built to run with those motors, or at least was paired up in the RTR package.

JIM you'll want to use the stock pinions for speed no matter what motor you plan to run. They offer the perfect amount of speed and torque till about a 12turn motor then u may want to go down a tooth.

Ok, hopefully I can fab up a front servo mount and add another battery tray to my truck this week and take it for a spin! I'll let you guys know!

Just to make sure, stock pinions are 13tooth 32 pitch correct?
