    i thought aluminimum parts were surposed to be way stronger because they r well.. aluminimum and they r way expensive

    i havent had any part break yet except for the rear wheel shaft or sumthin it is the piece that u slide the wheel onto that has broken like 8 times because of the weak part where the pin slides through but i now have a titanium part there and it is awesome

    ok thanks for the help so far zac and vr-4 i was thinking on tryin out a few different sets of pinion gears and spur gears to see if i can get it better, possibly faster and so forth.

    i was also thinkin on getting ball bearings and metal gears in the gearbox

    im also trying to get a titanium turnbuckle

    yea i would do that except for the fact i dont have a monster truck to use but monster trucks jumping over real trucks does look really mad

    i was thinking of using a few building blocks and a couple of bricks with 3 different sized pieces of wood i have at home one is a huge floppy board thing and thats the main part of the jump it is fully sick

    im going to try puttin the shock collars on to all the shocks as that should work but i was wondering what brand of motors are good at an affordable price my price range is around 60 – 120 australian. are team orion a good brand for motors as they have like 100 of em down at mr toys for around $65 – $80 but i had a look on their site and it says that some are for touring cars and there are a few other types, so do u guys know which motor model out of the team orion ones are good for a stadium truck. im looking for a motor that gives u a lot more speed as well as power.

    With the shocks they are oil filled and have team associated pure silicon oil special formula 30 (thats what it says on the bottle), although the front of the car is tilting down a lot and it should be sitting a little higher and the shocks are sinking just a little which is making the front of the car tilt, which i am unsure why it is doing this. I was thinking more of what type of aluminium shocks are good ei. wat springs, shocks, caps all that stuff.

    As with the motor i already new that 12 turn was the lowest it could go i ment what brand make good 12 or 13 turn motors that are a good price and dont wear out quickly.
