i have a feeling it would rub terribly. you would need the arms to be a lot wider. check out neweramodels.com . i knwo they make a widening kit, but its aluminum. you can also use losi arms i think. do a search on stampede widening kits and see what you pull up.

I've also bought some hex adaptors from speedtech to suit the stampede so i can use the 40 series rims for the T-maxx. My question is, Will those wheels fit onto the standard stampede XL-5? Or will i need longer suspension arms? I'm thinking maybe that the inside of the wheels will hit the suspension or body. Any advice would be great thanks. I'll be buying the Stampede in another 6 weeks time. I've got some big plans for it :) Cheers Alan. Steve Wang |
Ohh thank you Steve for that info, I actually got them from you on eBay:) I was stressing out that i wasted all that money on the rims and tyres :). I got the 1/2" offset rims from proline.
I'll keep you guys updated on how it all pans out. Will take a month or 2. Next thing i need to save up for is a mamba max brushless system and a nice fast servo. Cheers Alan. |

Here is my Pede:
Mostly stock Full bearings Venom 15d Proline H2 body |
nice. i have that same body. only mine is painted a lot different. what bearing kit did you get?
|
yeah it's hard for me to paint a loud design on a H2. it was almost yellow.
i did buy a kit for the bearings i had some left in my pit box that worked. |
patiently waiting for my pede to arrive in couple of weeks; Looking forward to a build up. I b seeking info soon
|
ask away my friend. lookin forward to seein what you do
|
been looking at a VXL pede w/pretty much stock setup (so far) What type of upgrades should I be looking at?
|
only thing you can do is batteries really. everything else is damn near bullet proof. get an extra set of axles maybe
|
thanks streetracer745- my upgrade was/is supposed to a 3s LiPo.
Got a site for axles? C'mon Santa!!! |
Lipo. im gonna say maxamps. great product and amazing service. ive been emailing them today and i got 8 emails from him about everything in less than 2 hours. fast response and great stuff. as for parts. your LHS is the best place. support them and they will treat you right. i try not to order offline. i try to get everything there. they will probly match prices too. if you really need it, check towerhobbies.
