Re: Overland: What Mods?

the body tag sounds like it broke, its a simple glue job. when working with my overland i tend to use a mix of super glue and plastic glue, but just super glue will do.

ball bearings are the really needed next part, youll get a far better feeling out of the car with them as they like to roll on a bit after powering which adds to the handling i think.

the warm motor of my choice is the speedy nm. its powerfull and punchy and wont need any turbo modding. if your lucky you might even get one with bearings in the motor.

the NM in the motor discription stands for neo-magnets. these are stronger than regular black ferrite magnets and so the feilds inside the motor are stronger, giving it more kick. ((i might be slightly off here guys, correct me please!)). having that extra punch gives the overlander way more versatility on terrain. flat out reverse to forward makes it wheel stand no sweat.

also, consider stainless pins for suspension and steering if you do like to use yours outdoors (where it should be!).

you can see pics of the knock around H-1 hummer i did for mine in the gallery.
