As much as I'd like to show you all, it isn't permitting me at the moment. But a brief description-a true shelf queen mainly, not a scratch on the chassis whatsoever. Nor is there any dirt, clean as can be. Has a 2 speed trans, titanium links, upgraded aluminum shocks and a 2.4 ghz tx/rx. The search now starts for an F150 body and decal kit. The current body has a bad paint snafu and has fogged windows. No good -_-

Linking this from the for sale area for the benefit of anyone looking for another truck. This one looks like it has some nice hard to find extras.

That is a very nice truck, about what I paid for mine...a good buy for someone still looking for one! Good find!

Best bet is ebay. Scroll through this thread and see too., there are a few sources for nelts mentioned. Oldrc.com may be good....post in the wanted section. I bought semi complete trucks for parts....

This^^

eBay seems to have a few parts up for it now but the seller is asking way too much imho. Your best bet is to search by the parts tree number you are looking for.

Btw anyone looking for generic RS4 parts can hit me up. I have bags of new and used parts I'm going to be unloading in the near future. Not specifically MT parts but more on the TC side and everything that is shared between the two chassis.

They do pop up on ebay from time to time. right now there is a bug body and an inner body on there. No dodge atm. Maybe someone on here will chime in with a spare.

I've talked to the company with the bug body. It's a repop. They said they would gladly make some if they had an in-trimmed body to work from. There are a couple on there with trucks tho. But all trimmed and painted.

Hi, just got myself a RS4 MT #503 Baja Bug kit.
What would be the best, but cheap, motor and ESC to put on it?
I don't need it fast, as I'm disabled, but need it to work and not burn out.
Running 7.2v NiMH
Will run it on grass, dirt track with banking hills. See

I have run sidewinder (ver 1) with 3300 kv motor in mine with no problems. If I were shopping for a combo today I might look at the sidewinder sct with a 1410 motor on 2s. I think this rc would do better with a slower motor on 3s but you are limited as to what battery will fit in there. And I wouldn't call that the best combo, but definitely a decent available combo.

I dont think any motor over 36mm wide would fit but you might go longer than 50mm, there should be room. But I do not have an inner body either.
