Losi Alum. steering linkages
Baja bug body from Proline
HiTec 7954HS Servo
New 48p 24t pinon from losi
Motor is a Novak Rock Star Expert Crawling Brush Motor (35T)
The Wheels are Integy Alloy Type VII 2.2 Beadlock Wheel Set w 34oz Weight Added
Springs are 2.75" 1.8 rate white shock springs from Losi.
Losi 12mm Aluminum wheel hexes.
Losi Aluminum Crawler Servo arm, with a Hitec servo spline pattern.
***UPDATE***
I am Running with 34oz of weight an a 7.4 Lipo on a 35t brushed Novak rock crawler motor,
So,Yeah it is heavy and has a good amount of wheel speed, The only other problem I see is that my steering is a little sluggish and to solve that problem I will add a BEC to fix it. Hope it works tho!
As for the suspension I run the stock shocks with all oil being 35 weight and the springs are adjusted to fully loose so there is no compression on the springs, from this I have noticed a great amount of stability and a good balance to them too.
***UPDATE 9/28/11***
Well my friends I decided it was time to upgrade my shocks and no not just the springs. I am going all out this time and I am replacing all 4 with G-Mades Zero Shock. This should handle the new weigh of the Bug better so I hope all goes well. Till next time, Stay tuned to our YouTube for up and coming videos on the shocks!!
