its great i might even say wild:unsure::LOL: giving it a real go so i can see where i need to upgrade replace .... so it dose suck when poop breaks but @ the same time i get to replace it with better parts(y)
 
Yep the stock spur gear lasted about 10mins with my brushless baja. I went with a hostile spur and it’s lasted 3 bash sessions so far but I will also upgrade to a steel spur when that goes.

My old baja was not the most reliable but I was unsure if it was a close as someone Re-anodised the metal parts blue. I broke something every run.

But the 5b ss has been great ?

good stuff (y) wish hostile made boots for the 5sc, becuase my flm dog bone cups are huge and only stock 5sc boots fit it, and id like to have the nice and beafy hostiles. oh well!
 
took my rig for a burn today at this new bash spot(y) was quite early round 830am
grass was super wet + there seems to be a bit of a spring there as well. i have my new gears 19/55
which seems to add to the traction issue. i landed up with a few casualty`s lost a few wheel nuts lost a steering arm and totally wanked
and dog bone:rolleyes:(n):unsure:

so after my bash session i decided to check out how my mesh pull start (y) im pleased with how its working keeping 90%
of the muck out
51336
51337
51338
51343
got my rig home for a clean(y) this took two hours or so. took out the tank and radio tray ..........need a closed chassis:unsure:(y)
