Bought my son a Stampede
I bought a Stampede for my sons 6th birthday. I don't have an LHSso I was wondering if someone could give me a quick list of parts that are likely to break so I can order them and have them on hand just in case.
Thanks,

RE: Bought my son a Stampede
my son started out with a electric pede he never really broke anything i put bearings in it so it would move better but stock isnt bad for a little one that's a good starter truck but if you wanna hop it up a bit get rpm arms bearings and a good 19 turn motor that stock won't last long (im assuming its a titan) i had a nitro pede thats a fun little truck the .15 moved it relly nice

1. RPM front bumper
2. RPM hubs for bigger bearings + bearings to go in them.
3. beat the living crap out of it. :P
Thats what i did for my little brother, the worst crash i think he bent a shock shaft slightly after a 15ft vertical drop onto the front wheels. Just bent it back, polished it and back he was running 15mins later.
Have never broke a stock suspension arm or turnbuckle, and its seen some serious crashes.
