Almost finished with the number two truck's upgrade/rebuild for brushless combo! I've had lots of fun with this upgrade too.

All those shiny parts!

I prefer Traxxas's slipper system tho. Worked pretty well for me and even adapted it to my crawlers when possible.

I like that servo saver pretty good it is what I am using now. But Central Maxx has a new one that is like the UE Gen IV but a threaded body. The Gen IV is pretty good too.

Thanks Nitrostarter and Kcaz25! Any alternatives to the research I do is appreciated. You both have more experience and thank you again for your inputs!

I installed the Hot-Racing aluminum bearing saver steering kit on the FLM upgrade truck. I chose to remove the anodized colors and polish the aluminum instead.

Great looking truck man!!

Thanks Nitrostarter! I enjoy the hobby and exchange with individuals like yourself. Your input has helped.

Well, it's time to start the upgrade for the number-one-truck. This was my first E-MAXX - it is a 3905. The top pic was how it looked after it's first aftermarket purchase - a new body. The last pic is how it looks now. The aluminum chassis will be anodized black to begin the brushless upgrade process.

Still working on the # one truck upgrades. Looking for diffs again. But, has been fun so far!

Found the diff on another thread:http://www.dollarhobbyz.com/ofna-1-8...ferential.html Does anyone know the silicone diff oil weight of this completed diff? I may have to change it - cause' not sure of the lubricant.

If this is the right manual, it says it comes with grease stock?

Thanks you Ruudxd! I will review the manual and see what I can find. Well, the silicone oil is an option.

Thank you again for your help - sir!

Well, as soon I discover another process to upload more pics, I will show pictures of the progress for number 1&2 FLM upgraded trucks - plus the V-MAXX chassis build. As usual, it's been fun to build and upgrade the trucks.
