Just a few new parts on their way!
Wife could care less about these parts, and wouldn't understand even if she did so Ifigured I'd share here! Just got done ordering a few parts for my Revo 3.3 after getting one of my steering knuckles replaced and my new motor saver intake installed, along with a new wiring kit for the ez-start. Anyway... Here's what Igot... I'm preparing to pick up a picco max .26 and will be running this thing with paddles at the dunes. I'm not so much conerned about top speed (40 is more than enough for me to be honest, I'd just rather have acceleration. So, onto the list.
Wing mount and black wing
New pivot ball caps (had issues with one tearing)
Candy apple powdercoated full cage
Brushed aluminum bumpers
Robinson Steel 1st gear (43T)
Robinson Steel 2nd gear (40T) (Close ratio baby!)
Aluminum (red anodized) pushrod kit
3-Piece clutch conversion (red flywheel)
Robinson Extra hard steel spur &clutchbell (40T/16T)
Robinson Steel forward only gear kit
THS Pipe kit
I'm super stoked, it was a grip of money, but I'm really looking forward to getting that .26.Will do diffs next! >=)

i've had some integy stuff, i still do i think, and it's not as bad as everyone says, as long as you don't buy useless stuff like arms and such.

RE: Just a few new parts on their way!
Where are you guys getting the new era motor mount? Don't see any on ebay right now. Got my THS pipe, aluminum bumpers and motor saver filter installed today and tested out at the park today (in grass). It's funny to do wheelies. Had to make quite an adjustment in tuning though, it was 100º F today so I ran it without the body on (was getting a little warm with it on). I got home and installed my candy apple powder coated full cage and reinstalled the body, looks sick as hell. Not gonna get the .26 here and installed in time for the dunes though so I'll get to make a comparison with the paddles and this current setup with a .26 with steel gears, etc.

RE: Just a few new parts on their way!
Hmm, decent price too! Is the picco .28 too much for it? About the same price as the .26 max. I think I'll be happy with the .26, but would be nice to have additional torque. The 3.3 in this revo isn't so much of a torque monster, I ordered a 3 shoe clutch kit with a better spring to try and get a higher stall out of it so I'd rather be safe than sorry, but kinda thinking the .28 will be too much for what I'm doing with it. Suggestions?

So, the differentials... What exactly needs replacing? Alloy cups and alloy cases (gearbox)? I'll be getting a set of drive shafts shortly, the 3.3 is running better with the new mods, so I'll probably run it until it gets tired.
