[RickDizzle]

Dude this thing is coming together nice. Good work. Love the pics and the quick vids too!

Don't know what is it with the vekta but whoever buys the vekta spends tons of money on it. ?

Huh???

He asked how much loctite to put on. I replied sparingly or not a lot.
Then he asked if we use it on the jam nuts on control arms, I said no that's why the jam nuts are there.

Thought they were the same questions both times about the jam nuts. My bad. Carry on?

Looking sweet! Can't wait man!???

 

[niz55]

Perfect thank you.

Got it running. Seems like something is binding in the transmission. Makes low grinding noise.

WHAT THE FFFFFF!!??‍?

Going to take it apart and rebuild it myself correctly.

 

[siblues]

The gears on the Vekta do that.The gears and trans on this thing aren't like a Losi.

 

[niz55]

Good to know that the gears are like that being noisy and normal. Anyways I'll drive and take it apart later on just to make sure everything is assembled perfectly.

The truck looks so mean! With the stock 320 it has plenty of torque for a heavy truck. Might do the esp 34 or I can sell my dbxle-2.0 and use that money and go for a alx motor. ?

 

[niz55]

Still on the first tank. Just idling well I did do couple of pulls also hahaha.

I like that you installed it on the inside of the cage, that's tight?

 

[niz55]

Yeah installing it on the outside would of got destroyed on the first roll. I am going to run the 3s battery in the rear basket but I need some kind of battery box to go with it.
