I finally got A pic!!! After stripping the spur, I decided to take my gears out, and gear it the best I could. The Stock 20 turn motor is very capable in this truck! It is geared 84 to 23....(best I could do with my extra parts...) The only thing I have done to it, is DEAN'S Ultra Plugs...[not pictured] I can't upload one pic, it was of another body I painted, you can see the front of it... It's black w/ 2 red stripes up the middle... I LOVE AE!!!!!!!

Stay away from Tekin junk, their customer service is horrible if you end up blowing out the ESC.

Their service is horrible?? I was under the impression its non-exsistant. Seriously though, havn't they been out of buisness for a long time? I was a big tekin fan back in the day, its all I ran. I was sorry to see them go

I'm a big fan of the Novak Dually's. They have no motor limit as well and the one touch setup is pretty nice aswell. I loved the first one I got so much I got one for my XXX-T. Just my $0.02.

I thought Tekin was gone too, but their stuff seems to still be around so I didnt know, just know when they were around their service was crap. Me and some friends went up there to get some ESC's and chargers serviced about 4 or 5 years ago, and one of their employees actually offered us chargers, dynos and esc's for around $20-50 each, he was willing to steal them for drug money, so that's the kind of technology Tekin has...
