RE: 4 channel mod and brake spring tubing
Mate the servo you linked is pretty expensive and has low torque, I'd suggest buying this http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__9440__BMS_660DMG_HS_Super_Strong_Digital_Servo_MG_14_2kg_17sec_52g.html, I have one and its really good, and compared to the Fubata one its way cheaper and has more torque but is slower, but you dont need it to be as fast as the Fubata unless you're racing.

Mini MGT list of upgrade thread
Ok, most MMGT owners have probably realised theres not that much upgrades availible... things like shock towers and hubs from them, and the MMGT stuff is CHEAP becausae nobody buys... rods are a thicker upgrade compared to the MMGT's and should fit Shocks that are around... heard the Tmaxx LOWER arm will fit the MMGT but I'm not sure if its the older tmaxx arm which

RE: Newbie T-Maxx 3.3 Owner
Wow thats one nice Tmaxx [X(] All that aluminium must weight a ton! But your really lucky to get a deal like that, your father-in-law must be pretty cool. I hope you get the front wheels problem fixed soon. And also just a tip, try go through all the screws which are metal on metal with blue threadlocker, and have a look at the driveshafts on the front end to see if a screw or grubscrew is missing because that might be your problem.

RE: My Mini MGT electric conversion
I havent gotten my towerhobbies order for it yet but I did a bit of work on my wheely bar- I did the main thing but I need to get the right screws so heres just a mock up of how it will look, I will have probably have finished the rebuild next month because I'm concentrating more on the Tmaxx and after taking the truck apart I have found out that I have installed something wrong and I need to take apart the front end again. :?

The link is not working, when you click on it, go to the web link and in the place where the stars are (delete the stars), type in www. nitro carnage .com in one word and leave the rest of the link alone, then it should work.

Its going good, I pretty much finished the conversion yesterday (but I've been driving it for about a month- my servo needed replacing) and today I took the truck out and broke the rear diff and the right steering block but its really good. =) I havent updated my posts about the conversion because I cant upload the pics from my phone to the computer for some wierd reason- but I'll sort that out soon.
