Sooner or later one pit either gets full or you realize it’s bottomless, so you move onto another one.

It sure can be. It's what happens when you can't go ride anywhere 😠. Costs about the same!! Lol

Got the bumper and hardened sliders on. My rear inner fenders finished up a while ago too so I got them on there. Looks so much better when you can't see through the fender wells

The Pioneer pit leveled off with not having anywhere to ride the last couple months. It's got brand new tires, fresh fluids, bushings, and a good cleaning. It's been the shuttle to the rock pit by the house for the last couple months to play with the R/C crawlers. Makes an excellent beer bus

Well I joined the ranks of @Hondasxs, parts are on back order. I might of had a beer and got bored and was crawling the pile of wood in the back of my truck and had a miscue?

Looks like you broke that axle! I guess that's the only benefit I have of mine not being built yet, less parts breakage!

HA! I'm going to build one, but before I pick the chassis, going to check parts availability?

Length as far as I know. I know in the brushed motors the 550 is typically a "torquier" motor (they use them in drills, impacts, etc forever). I'd go with the 540 AXE setup

Naw, a loose nut on the trigger, it took a four foot fall out the truck. I ordered a set.
