Well I got my Rampage XT last Friday!! I still haven't broken it in yet!! But before I do, I wanna upgrade some parts. But I have no idea what to upgrade!! What to start with. I wanna know what parts usually break first?
 
Get a kill switch,steering servo hs-5755,throttle/brake servo hs 645mg,maybe wheel adapters to run hpi tires and wheels. Get bead locks so you don't have to fool with glue.Maybe the belt drive.

- Check engine gaskets

- Buy better servos ( I have 5755, and 5645 Hitecs)

- Killerbee failsafe

- 7075 bearing holders all around ( and 8x of these: http://www.largescalerc.com/10x22x61piece.aspx)

- Make a vent for your gas tank. I have a nozzle thing screwed into my gas gap that has a dirt bike breather attached to it.

- Loctight metal to metal screws/nuts, including the shock caps. Top and bottom.

Cant think of anything else right now.
 
Sweet!! I'm gonna order some bearings and bearing holders....I'm about to vent my gas cap today...can I just use a bleeder screw from a brake caliper?? I have 3 of those laying around and I don't wanna order a part online.

A bleeder screw should work fine, but you should eventually get a dirt bike breather like this: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/gas-fuel-tank-breather-cap-vent-hose-tube-dirt-pit-bike-CNC-OIL-tank-tube-/180891235063?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a1df532f7
