Soup guys! Happy new year


Trying to put a hard bashing XB. When I 1st got my XB (been 6 months), I gathered a lot of hop-ups.


Current parts installed on Car:


-Aluminum C-hubs


-Al. front and rear bearing holders


-Al. cage


-Al. shock towers


-Al. gear housing


-Al. front upper suspension


-Al. rear upper link


-Al. Steering rocker


-Universal Dogbones


-Green type Boca Bearings


-CPI Rear pipe (very loud)


-Triple protection Air Filter


-Wt-998 carb


-4x Rear Trenchers


-Savox SV 0236 MG HV steering servo


-Savox SV 1258tg throttle servo


-M11X Sanwa Transmitter with Killer RC kill switch


A month ago, I was having problems with the Diff gear housing (kept breaking). Being a stubborn picky guy. Decided to go all out.


New parts that will be installed:


-DGI Steering links


-DGI rear upper links


-4x FLM CVD


-HITEC HV 7954 Throttle servo


-7075RC front and rear Diff housing


-8000 rpm HPI clutch house and spring


-Lightened Flywheel


-Double mesh Fuel Filter, Fuel lines, snappy tank vent, brass fittings


-Killer RC 7.4 V 7200 Mah battery with splitter (lessens the load on the M11x Receiver)


-DDM Receiver Signal Filter (for better response)


-Fast eddy Bearings


-9500 rpm (optional DDM spring)


-Killer RC Super Stainless steel pull start (already installed)


-7075RC Black anodized Chassis (Not in the pic, Will Hopefully reach in my hands on January 16th)


I have put some pics to sum up the above. I will remove and strap down everything; literally start from scratch. I will upload some more pics if you are interested.


let me know what you think. Any suggestions for future improvement are welcomed. Cheers.

nice stuff going on there, are those MT shocks for your XB? they came dry? the mounts bolts are same size?
 
yup. those are Resi shocks for the MT. gona use them on the XB.

Im not sure if they come in dry, did not open them yet, but in any case, i wanted to change their fluid to 40wt (as per RC dads recommendation).

the mounts bolts are not the same size, they're bigger. i need to drill a bigger hole on the shock tower
 
Slowly slowly.. OLD VS NEW (stock vs FLM)
