here's what iv got. just got done finishing up the bdoy and its install. so far i like it. now its time to start reworking the over all clod it self to work a tad better for what i want. im all grown up now, its not as cool any more to just send this pos saling into the sky. i want to revamp it a bit more rock cralwer style. figure i can sit in my back yard and get 100% tanked summer/fall/winter/spring while runing over what ever happens to be ready to get ran over w/ this lill beast. so far its failry fucking amazing what it can do.

some of u may reconize this paint scheam. i had to change up the colors a bit but im happy w/ it. i spent 2hrs doing the paint work so its def not super high quialy but i feel happy w/ it as is and dont feel bad beating it up. the next bdoy will be a bit nicer im sure... i hope to find a fj-40 body for the next go around. all though i did here there is a 07' 4dr chevy body out there some where. its probaly the closet to my truck ill ever find.


i ran out of room for the "n"///// ahahah


so far iv noticed that my futaba magnum junor contorler is ready to be replaced. being its about 15yrs old and been in a box for about 10yrs hasnt done it much good. the throtel has a huge dead spot and the steering seems to be intermetent in hwo it wants to work. its alos a 2 channel. wich means no fun crab walking or any thing else liek that w/ the 4 wheel steering. just palin old monster truck counter steer. wich is neat but could be better.

the steering survo's on this thing have there job cut out for them w/ a ton of slop and a no so super over all steering desing its ready for a major overhauling. now that im not 12yrs old and broke i think ill go all out and toss the survo savor in the trash and go for a solid linked steering set up.

the chassie is a coldzilla 2. its freaking rad for a monster truck and it dose a good job for the most part as is crawling. i paln to remove the sway bars, revamp the 4 link set ups. im going to change it so that the triangulated bars are on top and square up the lower links. this should be fairly simple other than i have to come up w/ a upper link moutning point at the axle and also move the survo out of the damn way so things dont bind up. i also dont plan to cut the chassie's frame rials down. mosty cuz i odnt wnat to. so ill be a nut bag trying to make all shit fit w/ a full lenth set of frame rails when fully compresed but hay iv got nothign to do at night right ahhhaha...

i cant even remember what ESC its set up w/ but by my standrds it sucks now a days. i plan to replace it w/ one ment for A. dual motors and B. rock crawling. they are cheap and have tons of cool optpoins now a days so why not.

for now iv got a cheap off the shelf battery back and charger i jsut orderd form tower hobies. till i get mroe into this pos its not going ot get any thing odd in this department. im not sure where i wnat to put the battery as its currently held in w/ zip ties very baddly.

in the end i hope to hit up ebay and buy as much new cheap shit off ebay and not goo to into debt over this bs toy of doomb.

oh ere is the info i got when i bough it.....

Hitec HS-605 high torque servo.
Hitec HS 615 MG servo
LRP F1 PRO Reverse ESC w/ cooling fan wired with 12 gauge wires and Deans no loss connectors.
