Man I sure would like to have more fun with this thing. But everyday it's sometning new.
Ok I got 5 minutes of run time today. Reason, the pins cam out of one of the dog bones and broke the front plastic steering hub.
So, does anybody make an upgraded dog bone? Which one should I get? link please if anyone has an idea.
I rolled it a couple times and the body is cracked straight through the middle and upfront. I am sorry but that Rampage body is A HUGE P.O.S!!!!! 70.00 bucks and it can't hardly take any off road driving. Keep in mind this is the second run with this body on it since I sold the buggy body and went for the truggy look. Is there a body out there that fits thats good quality?
Only good thing that came out of the day is since I started taking it apart. I went ahead and installed the new diff out drives and took out that diff grease and filled it up witth diff fluid.
I am about ready to off this thing for real cheap or trade it for a 5b again. Thing is, IMO the ramp is 10 times more fun to drive than the 5b I had. But my 5b was a stocker out of the box too and the only thing I ever broke on it was an A arm, and at least I got to drive it. It took tons more abuse than this thing. And hell, why am I calling it abuse, these are tiny jumps I am jumping for god sake!
sorry guys just frustrated.
