RE: T to E
No, and if you tried to do it peice by peice, it would cost you more than the 300 you can buy one brand new for anyway. New form Tower is the cheapest way to go right now.

RE: tmaxx to emaxx
I have both trucks, the front and rear ends are the same. you'd need engine and starter of some type, tranny, chassis, braces, linkages, screws, 2 servos if you want reverse, gas tank...well if you just sell your E-Maxx and buy a T-maxx it would be cheaper. You're still talking over $300 to convert it. Sell your E for $200, add $200 and get a T. My T-Maxx is so much more fun than my E-Maxx. Unless being quiet is an issue in your hood. Batteries are really annnoying and short running. But my E-Maxx will beat the T in a pull-off. Hella torky.

RE: tmaxx to emaxx
I got the conversion on Ebay for about $100. Bought tranny, plate, and a few other parts for $50. The motors, motor plate\slipper clutch and gears with the novak esc for $50. E maxx is alittle easier to use(I dont know nothing about gas motors)Was given the T maxx and couldnt get it to run for more than 50ft and then it would cut off. So naturally I made it idiot proof

LOL!
I'm sitting here at work reading these as quickly as I can. I just noticed that. My bad, that took me a good 10 minutes to write too. hehehe.
I have an E-Maxx I may be willing to get rid of, is your T-Maxx stock? My E-Maxx has alot of racing upgrades. CVD's, heatsinks, Proline suspension kit....
