| Bought it for $150 ($170 shipped) on EBAY. Had Integy piggyback shocks (which I am selling). Here is what I have in it other than what was included with it: Steering servo ($20) GD600 ($13) 35turn motor ($20) Novak XRS ESC ($40?) Futaba AM radio I had the electronics from my other truck, which came with my first TLT when I got it a good while ago. I don't NEED more than one truck, so when I upgrade, I sell the one I had before. A friend now has my last TXT crawler, he helped me build a cage (and will help build another cage) to pay for the parts he used off it. I still need to add some weight on the tires, and they need some better foams, the moron I got it from basically cut most of the foam out... There are other things I will do as well, not qute sure yet, but it seems it is a never ending process, guess thats why I like it so much Here are the pics: | |

| hey
I will be very interested to see how those tires perform.
I have the previous version and like them for climbing up hill but they are a little to hard. | |

| These are pretty soft, but need a little stiffer foams, and it wouldn't hurt to narrow them, but there is no *good* way to narrow them and keep them looking similar to what they do now. | |
