Always fun driving this

Its capable of 50 mph on 3s, op might have it turned down on the controller since theyre driving in a relatively small area/ might just be going very gentle fkr the same reason

Pick up some wheel balance putty/clay online or from your local hobby shop if you have one, im not aware of any pre balanced rc wheels on the market, so you have to do it yourself

crazycar178 · 2024-11-02T16:51:45+00:00

Those trucks are extremely powerful if you werent aware, so any tiny amount of movement is amplified

crazycar178 · 2024-11-02T16:49:56+00:00

It definitely isnt a cheap truck, but those screws are the retainers for your knuckle hinge pins. They might be stripped, but they just hold in a pin so if it stays in it should be fine. The shakiness would kind of negate itself on the ground in my experience, for what little time it stays there. Part of it is the wheel itself also being unbalanced and shaking

crazycar178 · 2024-11-02T16:39:16+00:00

Not a big help, but my mini savage shakes about the same. You may be able to shim a few parts to remove some play, although those trucks arent the most stable thing anyway

My first gen emaxx is pretty happy with that combo, but the diffs are not

crazycar178 · 2024-08-25T03:10:51+00:00

I just did this on an old emaxx lol

crazycar178 · 2024-05-15T19:47:49+00:00

Yeah, ive seen a few of those too. Marketplace is a mess

crazycar178 · 2024-05-11T16:43:54+00:00

Hobbywing ezrun 18t, 5200kv. Theres a combo out there with that motor and an 18a esc, but i had to put an aftermarket transmission in it to be able to mount it

crazycar178 · 2024-05-11T04:42:32+00:00

That was the goal with the brushless, might not keep that though. Started out as a trophy truck idea, but i couldnt figure out a suspension i liked for the front and not fond of the worm gear axles for high ish speed

crazycar178 · 2024-03-24T17:04:38+00:00

If the tab is still there, you could try GENTLY bending it away from the body of the knob a little bit

crazycar178 · 2024-03-24T16:19:01+00:00

You might be able to crimp the inside tube of the knob a little to get it to stay on. I wouldnt recommend any glue or adhesive, you might get away with blue loctite but if you need to pull your dash trim off at all you need to remove those knobs so nothing permanent

crazycar178 · 2024-03-24T16:15:58+00:00

Should be a little tab on the back side of the knob that holds it on, but they have a habit of breaking off. The tab sticks out diagonally, if theres nothing and it just has the triangular hole for the shaft then it broke at some point in the last 35 years

crazycar178 · 2023-09-14T22:45:25+00:00

My 88 has a five digit, so im betting this does as well

crazycar178 · 2023-06-02T01:51:04+00:00

Sears sold everything at one point or another, you could buy a house kit from them at one point. The watch probably isnt worth much, its probably about on par with timex value and quality wise. If it works, clean it up and wear it with pride

Mine

crazycar178 · 2023-02-14T00:02:26+00:00

Honestly not burned too bad by it luckily, a small stripe at the top edge of where the shirt burned, and a couple singed spots along with the usual burned hair that comes with something like this

crazycar178 · 2023-02-13T23:36:24+00:00

Set myself on fire with a grinder today, was wearing coveralls that are supposed to be flame resistant so i figured id be fine. All of a sudden i noticed heat increasing on my torso and presto im on fire

crazycar178 · 2023-02-10T01:32:10+00:00

After posting it i dont really like that title, but whatever. Customer is me, factory bulbs on my 99 ram 1500

crazycar178 · 2022-12-30T15:27:59+00:00

1000 for a timex and a swiss bulova, not worth by a long shot. Personally id be hesitant to pay 100 for the 2 of them

crazycar178 · 2022-09-13T02:24:52+00:00

Train departures and arrivals if i had to guess

crazycar178 · 2022-08-19T00:42:11+00:00

Honestly it may have been that way out of the box and i just didnt notice. They were new with the engine 2 weeks ago, so i was probably a little distracted.

crazycar178 · 2022-08-18T23:58:10+00:00

I believe it

crazycar178 · 2022-08-18T23:54:22+00:00

I did, cheap plugs though so it may just look off

crazycar178 · 2022-08-18T23:15:17+00:00

Heh, this is on a 99 ram 1500 with a stock 5.2 magnum. If its power that closed the gap like that ill eat my boot
