There is a guy somewhere on this forum, his name is racernine. He should be able to get you parts or point you in the right direction. I think he is sponsored by XTM or something, he also distributes STS engines. The OG mammoth is the shit. Good luck

You should contact him through his website. There use to be a guy that made killer upgrades for that truck but it's been a while so I forgot the company. They made chassis braces, hinge pin retainers and a few others. If they still exist you should think about getting them. I know that racernine used them I pretty much copied that set-up. XTM also has a pro chassis too. That truck is quick if you remove the 2 speed.

It's also known as Great Vigor Mammoth. You can contact the Great Vigor factory directly if there is a part you can't find.

Hi

I have some brand new tires/wheels from an original mammoth. I'll see if I have a complete set (they're unidirectional) I raced mammoths alot so my shop has tons of chassis, diffs, upgrade stuff. Should be able to post up this evening with a list for you

Heres my picture gallery that has lots of mammoth photos http://rcvisions.netfirms.com/galler...ls.php?album=1

Taking out the 2 speed means putting in a center diff. The mammoth is faster with the 2 speed but turns much better with a center diff.
