We all know the potential of this truck(truggy),and how good can be with some imagination,tools and the need to go faster.
So i want to share some mods(not much But enough) to improve the car handling ,at least for my taste!!!
LST universals,that a most. i felt that the suspention was too soft, so i drill a new hole in the shock tower between the stock hole and the body post hole in both sides front and rear .After that the susp. feeling was a lot better, with that mod the LS gain some down travel that i only use in the rear susp. in the front i'm using the stock down travel with 2 TC3 motor mount screws all the way in the bottom of the A arm(First because i get the droop a was looking for and second because the big round head of the TC3 screws wont damage the chasis) .with that set up if you dont want the chasis to hit the dirt badly you also need to put 8mm fuel tubing in front and 14mm in the rear. 40 wt shock oil in the 4 corners 4 bowties 1 big bad servo,and a 27 Fantom engine .Well thats it ,i hope i help some people with all that. Some hints for the center diff oil are welcome!

I'm still waiting for my pro to show up.. For the center diff I was told to run 8,000 to 10,000,For tires run bowtie 40's,Hows the Fantom stack up against the Pico 27pro..???

Thanks for the tip,i was using 7k,i'll change to 10k for sunday.About the tires 40's work well,but i don't like em in ruff tracks.The Fr27 is a lot better than the stock engine,it have a good power band and is very reliable.

this truck rocks. smooth and stable and kinda fast. we were using the cvds from a monster gt , ill have to try the lst ones also. if your still looking for trucks click my sig, i have plenty.

It looks like the CVD's for a savage will work as well.RD Logics is the brand I'm trying.Tomorrow is the first race for me with the pro,It's been over 2 years..last time I raced off road,Just on road racing,and no nitro for over 3 years..I hope I just finish..

the most important thing to do is prepare your cvd's. they always break. always.

one of my drivers, jimmy atkins was just at the rc pro series in florida driving greg vogels( rc driver) lightning stadium pro. even after all the prep work on it, new cvd's ect, it was one of the center cvd's that let him down. he still finished 9th in the A. in small block he finished 3rd in the a main ahead of Slyden from traxxas .

good luck and prepare.
