Im running the Pro rk370 motor in there with the 15t/60 gearing. It hauls major a$$. I dont run the 18t too much now since all the hopups are on there (still looking for an M18)

Just not yet there, but almost. Got the lower A-arms and the shock towers today, my lhs were out of the Caster blocks and the Steering blocks. Hopefully they will get some soon so this bad boy can be enjoyed.

Alfred, that is one fine 18T! I am sorely tempted to get one for myself.....
What are you gonna do for a body? A stock one just won't do justice to that chassis.

Blue is better

Alfred,

Awesome!! Unfortunately the UK LHS outlets haven't quite gotten the hop ups in yet.
Most of the stuff I get will be pruchased thru Ebay
I will probably follow youre fine example, alloy socks, dogbones and shock towers.
I'm a little skeptical about alloy suspension arms: this comes from being a T-MAXX owner.

Your RC18T is a fine example of how they should be built

Thanks for the kind words guys, well this project is going to be complete as soon as i get in those parts. My lhs has a race class for these on Saturdays but dont really plan to participate in them. I think that a truck should be a truck and not lowered and and raced on the track with foams, indoor track at that. Overdose, yes and about the body for the 18t, i was hoping to commission you to do one for me if your schedule allows, same going rate as before.

Today was my first time that i really got to drive the 18t with all the hopups on it. The first couple of drives were very sloppy, but after the turn buckles and shock oil got changed out and dialed i was WOWED on how well the 18t handled. What a pleasure it is to just bash around.

the 18t has a low stance in the front and medium stance in the rear, the 18t drives like a buggy man awesome.

yes it got those by jumping small curves in the yard. At only 9.00 bucks for the bumper was a steal since the bumper seems to be made well and beefy at that. I shined it up using Mothers, which to me looks even better.
