bar321's pic heavy pede

ya i thought my eyes were messed up when i saw them but heres part list http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wto0149p +strc alum caster blocks SHINY SHINY

Thats a good bend, but a nitro rustler on a warm day where the plastic has give and a brick wall = one heck of a bent hinge pin!!! Its was beyond a C... it was almost an O!!!

I dont know why my friend threw it out, i would've framed it...

u shoulda seen my shock shaft on my savage boy was that messed up... it had bent 45 degrees before it finally broke, that truck can take one heck of a beating mind you i was running 70 when i did that, should've been running like 30 like i am now...

the lug

^^ Nice... It just sucks that noone has their camera out when this stuff happens lol!!!

buy me a cam and i'll record everything you want to see and more (take that however you like)


the lug

HEY...now they'll be none of that kind of filming until you're 18 and in college...(where it seems to be the norm anymore).

well i found out what im gonna get next http://www.rpmrcproducts.com/newprod/trxparts.htm#protect top thing a motor protector i have slapped the end bell alot broke one motor and dont want to spend another 30$ when im saving for a micro ram (need something for inside when its raining or my pede and slash are down

yeah i was always baffled by the fact that the traxxas vehicles didn't have motor gaurds in one of thier adds for the XL5 pede, they were wheelieing in sand, and the motor was the wheelie bar they were litterally dragging the motor thru sand... i never got that at all...

the lug

ya the main desing flaw is that it is so exposed even with the wheelie bar mount it still gets hit if u land wierd but hopfuly that will fix it

another short vid jumping/backfliping

Nice vid!

You beat your truck HARD!!!

yeah when you think about that, those are some pretty hard hits, i'd love to have a real jump or a video camera... ohh i'd have fun in the summers, you know all day home alone... nothing to do.... you know you're thinking about it and your're WRONG, well unless you're thinking about a savage jumping over my roof wait dumb idea, while its only 1 stury to the lip of my roof on the front side the back is 2 then a hill after that so thats a LONG drop after there..... okay i'll just jump unsuspecting cars... hehehe either way good vids, nice jumping

the wishful lug

thanx but ya this truck can take it so i dich it out but blew a shock lost a shock blader and need a new cap so gonna order some alum caps and new bladers and a new body BOTH rear clip area's are riping so the clips go threw gonna set me back like 30$ from my bl a123 powered revo

ok well after working on it all night i finally have a good adjustable wheelie bar
higher setting on my pede

lower setting on my slash

made it from old pede rear arm some screws from the stock wheelie bar mount a revo pushrod some shock limiters that came with the pede and a old x-mod truck slamed rim and it works and holds up well did a bit of bashing can hold a rly long wheelie for brushed now landed strait drop from like 4 feet onto it and it is fine so i think it will hole up to bl power but desided not to get a wing becuz i desided to go with a JConcepts illuzion rusty body insted just easyer to mount and more durable then a stock pede body and it comes with a lexan wing but cant wait till i can order my stuff i only need like 30$ but i think i can get that from b-day cash

Nice work, looks like ot should work as well as any wheely bar you could buy and the xmods wheel is inspired.

well it can take a beating landed on it 2 times from over 5 feet up and cartwheeled alot and its a bit lose but still in 1 piece and rly i was just throwing stuff on it and seeing if it looked like it would work lol
