This thread inspired me to rebuild my E-MAXX! Between yesterday and today I put a new front diff in, bent back my aluminum bulkheads that got mangled in a bad crash while racing at the track, and put in a new motor to replace the burnt out one. I still have to put the steel rollcage back on (I'm going to powder coat it again if we ever get that damn powder coating equipment ), adjust the shocks (I have one with a Tamiya rod end, a Tamiya spring cup, and a Tamiya shock shaft because the stock parts were mangled in a wreck), cut and bend out a new rear skidplate from 6061 T6 aluminum (The stock one is so damaged it no longer holds the rear suspension on the chassis), fix my steel bumper guards, Install new bumper mounts, install new bumper braces, put a through-bolt linkage on the steering tie bar, and fix some damaged rod ends that keep coming off.

It may look like a long list but it really isn't. I can't wait to get it running again. If I get the chance, I will take it down to the shop and make a set of 1/4" solid shock towers to replace the stock ones...you know, just in case!
