XXXT resurrection

[suburban_hooligan]

sense there's no stadium truck build thread and this is more of a re-build than a build ill post this here.

after 2 years of non use do to a couple broken parts and several worn out parts. everything has finally been acquired and my old XXXT went under the wrench this afternoon.
it had been so long sense i had torn into the thing that i had to use the instruction manual. i don't think iv used that manual sense probably 2003. and i hate to admit this but i am having to relearn ball diff and slipper clutch adjustment.
anyway here's what iv got so far.






sorry about not having more pic's and written content to go along with it but i got on a roll and it was hard to remember to stop and take pic's.
hopefully ill have some action pic's and/or a short video within the next few days.
and if anyone is interested ill go ahead and post the specs on the truck.

[suburban_hooligan]

[rcbeginner]

nice update. i see you have the old manual. can you send me the whole section on building the ball diff because the one i downloaded was for the new ball diff

[suburban_hooligan]

sure no problem ill scan it tomorrow. PM me your e-mail address and ill send it to you sometime tomorrow

[suburban_hooligan]

well the 15 turn arm is trash. that's not a burn, that's the com and brushes totally worn out and gone

i just rebuilt the motor with "new" (read used but in much better condition) brushes and a 17X1 arm.

[rcbeginner]

that reminds me i need to go and pick up some stand up brushes for my motor. i just rebulit it the comm looks like a brand new penny
