[QUOTE=Play4fun1;15185599]Can you post the links for your upgrades ? Thanks ! Just got this MT despite the hate it’s getting. I feel like with so
Okay I tried posting links and the forum won't let me, so instead here are the part numbers that you can easy look up.
Shocks:
(Front): PRO6308-30
(Rear): PRO6308-31
Servo: PTK-130T
Servo Horn: PTK-7819
Turnbuckles: LOSB4003
Turnbuckle Rod Ends: LOSB4023
Wheels: JCO3352B
(I recommend and JCONCEPT tire)
Wheel Nuts: 175-11031
A couple additional notes is I did change the diff oil on all three just because I wanted to ensure it had the weights I wanted and to make sure they all were filled properly.
I also added some small Orings where the top of the shocks mount to the shock tower, this was to isolate how much movement they had.
I also used some blue grease/ or green slim (any hobby style grease) and I lightly greased all my moving parks, pivot points, bearings.. etc.
Hope this aids your adventure my friend!

I got the Buggy. SHop owner said almost all parts should be the same.

Want to thank you, recently picked up my 7 year old son the Tenacity-T and sadly on his first run out blew off two shock caps...It was beyond weird as he wasn't even doing anything but jumping 1-2' in the air on 2s.
Anyways went ahead and picked up those proline shocks for this truck, def stinks being as I wanted this to be a cheap basher but I guess live and learn.

Losi Tenacity Weak Link Question
Hey Sportsfans, I'm considering buying a Losi 1/10 Tenacity 4WD SCT and the reviews I've read look good except it may have a few shortcomings - one being the plastic shocks.
1) Should I replace the shock caps with aluminum ones ($20/pair) or should I replace the entire shocks with aluminum ones (off ebay for $35/4)?
2) It appears a 2S Lipo battery is ideal - is this what I should get and what mah (4000, 5000)?
3) Anything else I should upgrade or adjust?

Thanks Furadi for taking the time to reply to me. The whole upgrade kit appears to be a smart move. It's too bad it doesn't include rebuild parts for the three diffs too.

Get the whole upgrade kit IMO https://www.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...saAsC7EALw_wcB
Thanks!

The MT has a raised up chassis like a Stampede that is not flat on the bottom, I'm guessing that's the reason.

Got the tenacity MT out of the box and into the yard today. I had read stock electronics were better suited for a slightly lighter vehicle so I pulled them brand new, but even my heavier motor and ESC have been running very hot. I tried out a Tenshock SC401 motor, 3660 size, and it got hot after 1 pack (3s, 4000 mah). I am running the 12 tooth pinion (I'd go lower, but the motor mount won't let me).
What motor are folks running in their tenacity-based vehicles for at least 2-3 packs back to back? I tried my 8th scale motor but it didn't fit...
So far, I am not finding an electronics combo that is working well for me.

Yeah my plan is to eventually move to something mid 2000kv for 3s.
