Put some batteries on the front axle, lose the stick pack. If you put foams in the tires, sorry but take them out. Add a spring spacer (about 1/2" on the l/r shock. Good start though.

Not sur eabout anyone else but the 1st thing to "go" on mine was the stock servo horn...Might wanna get yourself an aluminum one while youre at it.
Otherwise it looks like everyone else has ya covered.

sit the truck in front of you with the hood away from you. then look down at the back of the truck, and the one on your left is the one to stiffen up.

as well, that shell may not meet the requirements for the amount you cut off of it, but your off to a good start so far.

you will want to do weights in the wheels. i run 6 ounces in each front wheel and 4 in each rear wheel.

the battery location, you gotta get that battery down low on the front axle. also try some micro packs if you can get your hands on them. most use 2/3 A cell packs for there crawlers now....
