I picked up a TMAXX 2.5 for pretty cheap and am rather excited about it. I've herd all the people tell me how much $$ I will dump into it but whatever, for the moment I am excited to just run it around. I don't plan on doing 50ft jumps with it ever ha.
This thing seriously rips though. The guy I bought it from showed it off in a big parking lot and then I got it home and tore around my back yard a bit. I have some big open dirt fields near me and plan to make use of them for sure.
Is anyone familiar with this particular truck, I plan on a tune up and replacing the shock. I was looking on RCplanet.com for some replacement parts. They have three listing for the Tmaxx, Old, 2.5 and 3.3. Am I to assume I have to only use parts listed for the 2.5 and they are not interchangeable? The Old model listing has a Ton of stuff where the 2.5 is rather limited oddly. They have a full set of big bore shocks for the Old model I was eyeing but they are not listed under the 2.5. At the moment I plan to keep the engine stock it's way to fast for me as it is. I want to build it up for durability the best I can first and do a tune up on wear and tear parts.
