I took advantage of some black Friday specials. So I thought I would share my upgrades. I started with some aluminum hop-ups and MT shocks because their longer. I was intrigued by Demon RCs thread on suspension droop and lack there of on the x series platforms.
I started by deanodizing the parts. I had to dremal off the inside corner of the lower suspension arms to make room for the massive c hubs from 7075 RC. They fit great for all stock, but hit the lower arm with the longer shocks. The MT shocks give the XB at least an inch more of droop and suspension travel. I decided not to swap the lower arms for aluminum because that what I bend in a bad landing on my MT. I completed the front today. I have much more to do including a motor upgrade. I'll keep adding to the thread as I complete more.
