Jammin SCRT10 Thread
#1561
Can someone post pictures of what the front bumper looks like when it breaks? I've got my SCRT on the way and I just wanted to try and figure out a way to reinforce it before it breaks if it possible.
Thanks for the help guys.

So I guess you just ignore the 1500+ posts in this thread?
The only things that need "upgrading" are the wheels/tires. The options are specific to offset and mounting options. You can go with Slash rear or Slash front offset. There are many post describing the differences. If you select rears, you can trim your stock body to accomodate. If you select fronts, you pretty much need to "upgrade" your body to one designed for SC10 or Slash. Beadlocks or conventional glue style wheels both work on SCRT10, however beadlocks add 3+ oz in weight. Of course, tires are specific to your track.
Tips, again many in the thread. Search for Chad's setup. Boil the front bumper mount. Go.

Last night I got my Slash body all painted up...
I have not drilled the holes yet but it will require a tad bit of trimming in the front and possibly movement of the body mounts to the upper position. The rears definitely will impact the inside of the body on full compression.
I bought some aluminum to do the Slash front bumper mod since my front bumper is already broken...
So...Jammin 13mm FRONT buggy shocks are the way to go on this? Are those the ones off the CRT.5 or the 1/8 buggy?

Read the thread. It's the best possible answer to your question. And maybe consider if you don't get an answer, just post the question again. If there's one thing I hate, it's people giving attitude when they are ASKING someone else for information. Patience goes a long way!
Body, wheels and tires. Aluminum center steering link. Spare front bumper. Any other spares you would normally buy for a truck. It's all up to how much you want to keep on hand. Personally I have a spare set of arms, spare steering parts(servo saver parts, bellcranks), spare spur, spare rear uprights, spare front c-hubs, spare front knuckles, screw kit, etc... That is most likely overkill, but I like to be prepared.

Here is mine before i took it out to the track. needless to say it doesn't look like this any more.LOL
Love the truck, but i am trying to get more steering out of it. with the stock tires it was all over the place. i tried a set of bowtie SC in the rear and Slash S1 compond in the tront mounted on proline split six wheels from the protrak system. a definite improvement. i also removed the front sway bar and moved the rear upright spacers foward. next week i am going to try the Bowtie SC all around from my son's slash. since the offsets are different i will but the fronts up front and rears in the rear, this will make a little wider in the front and more narrow in the rear and them switch them around to see what works best. i will post my findings. BTW sorry for rambleling

Hey Jamminkrazy. I just realized something.... If you want, you can take the Speed Passion for a rip at Motorama. I know its gonna be probably hectic, and dont know if you plan on bringing your scrt, but if you do, you are welcome to give her a try.

Did you have any problems with nose diving? My stock setup was nose diving like crazy.
Any tips for fixing the nose diving problem?

I am not having any nose diving the truck flys nice and level. i would check the drag brake setting on your speedo. if its set to high it will cause nose diving. i know this was covered several pages back but i'm not sure if they posted a resolution to for it.
