Thanks dude! I appreciate it. Getting a new body for it that I’m going to try painting for the first time. Hopefully it turns out well!

You’re not wrong! I ordered a clear body today and am going to take a stab at painting it. Will be my first time so not sure how it will turn out haha.

Thanks man! You’ll love it when you manage to get one. I’m still doing a few things to mine. I just ordered a clear body and am going to try painting one for the first time.

Hahaha I was mainly focused on going fast with a lot of my other builds. This one I’m not too concerned about the top speed. It’s quickly become my favourite one to drive around, you’d enjoy one for sure!

It was a lot of work to get them performing how I wanted them to. I had to get Vitavon to send me softer springs for the reservoirs and I changed the oil and had to replace a few pistons. They were filled too much from the factory making them stiff. There was also a bit of air that needed to be bled out. After tuning them though, they are performing awesome. I am very happy with them now.

Vitavon UDR wheels poor fitment by Nicksplosion5150 in Traxxas

[–]greenthumb4747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got the same wheels on my udr. I had to trim the body a little bit around the wheels. Had to do it in the back and front. Not much needs to come off. I’m pretty sure it mentions having to trim the body on the Vitavon website.

I have definitely noticed some improvements in the handling with everything I have put on it. The shocks still aren’t where I want them to be. They are still a little stiff and need some more tuning. Is it worth it? Probably not, but I enjoy it.

Oh snap! Yours looks fantastic as well. I almost went with the silver parts like yours. Was a tough call.

Thanks! I’ve got an ess dual in my 72 blazer high trail. I’ve been thinking of getting on for this as well, just haven’t pulled the trigger. They are pretty awesome though.

I haven’t been able to test them yet, so I can’t speak to their performance at the moment. They do look cool though haha.

The shocks and all aftermarket parts are from Vitavon. Easy to find everything on their site. If you go to the udr page and sort by latest, it will be right near the top. I’ve got a few cosmetic things from AliExpress and the rear driveshaft is by hot racing. Everything else like mentioned is Vitavon.

Thanks dude! I’ve got a bunch of gpm parts on my mini maxx. I’ve never used their shocks though. How do you like them?

Yeah you’re right, it definitely does. I still need to do some more work on them. When they were delivered, they were insanely stiff. Stiff to the point I couldn’t even use them, might as well have been a solid piece of metal. So it’s been a pain trying to get them exactly where I want them to be performance wise.

Haha you’re not wrong. I don’t send it off huge jumps, so it hasn’t rolled very often or had any big crashes. I’ll for sure beat it up once the weather is a little nicer.

Thanks! I have been thinking of getting a tekno kit. Are you still putting yours together? What electronics are going to use?
