Default Repairs, repairs, repairs ...

I just love it when I'm putting my TMaxx back together after a complete tear down, and I've purchased all the parts I THINK I need to bring it back to tip-top shape, just to find that the chassis screw holes for mounting the rear bulkheads are enlarged, so the screws just go right through! Yep, so I guess I need a new chassis. I've been excited about getting it put back together, now to find that I'll have to wait a while longer. Frustrating.

Anyone know of a good, cheap chassis? I'm looking at this one: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...=++&search3=Go
But I'd like other options. What about this? http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXKVJ9&P=7
I'm not a basher, so tweaking my chassis is not a major concern. I don't need the strongest thing out there, but I do want good quality.

look on ebay.
a lot of people buy new trucks and take them apart so they can sell each peice individually
i havent looked at t-maxx chassis but they are about the same price as revo chassis on towerhobbies
you could probably get a brand new chassis thats been taken off a brand new truck for around 20-30$
just look for auctions thats end during the night or early morning because they well get bid on the least.

heres a few i saw when i searched for t-maxx chassis on ebay.
im sure there are a lot more just look through till you find one you like.

Good Luck

I have a T-Maxx 2.5 I am currently rebuilding. I am in the tear down process right now.

This is the chassis I am ordering:

Or if I can get the cash together:

i havent had any probs with my integy chassis, but most integy stuff insnt good! I think my chassis braces (rc raven) and my powerline (?) bulks have helped alot tho. hope this helps.
