Form what I've heard its the hardest truck to work with due to the lack of parts support.

BTW it and most of its stock parts have been discontinued, so I'd stay away from it alltogether.

Emaxx is better, but not good for crawling.

Well you can convert the E-maxx into a crawler, but it takes alot of $$$ and alot of work, and the ones Ive seen converted look a bit silly. I'd say your better off just getting some clod axles and taking it from their.

Personally think the Twin Force is one of the Better Platforms for Crawling, up there with the Clod and TLT in my book. Twin Force Axles use 1/8 scale Buggy Diffs, Dogbones and Knuckles, Etc. They are Tough, Low Profile, Offset Diff for Clearance, with a very Universal Design can be easily Narrowed-Widened Etc. If your going for a BIG "Unlimited" Shaft Driven Crawler, the Twin Force is what I would go with over TXT, Jugg, Maxx, Xfactor.

TowerHobbies Discontinued most of the Twin Force parts, Just Tower. Twin force parts will always be available from Kyosho I'm Sure. Kyosho has a new California based Distribution Center, Which I believe directly affected the TowerHobbies TF Parts discontinuation decision.
