@jimmymanalus1090 4 года назад

you dont need needle nose pliers to install the yokes on traxxas driveshafts. The traxxas trucks comes with a silver tool to push on the yolk so you don't have to mess or weaken the plastic yokes. so smart Pro-Line Racing

@garettmachinetech6422 3 года назад

I think this build is for entry level dragster racers who just want a drag car to race or practice with and get good steering before upgrading. I think what people miss when racing is practice. My cousin once told me dont even worry about upgrading the car till i can drive the track flawlessly.

@idonthaveaname2719 4 года назад

you add all those upgrades and forgot the most important upgrade for that setup, a brushless system

@outdoorfun782 4 года назад

be grateful that he gave you a tutorial on how to make that. so if your that worried about it make your own video.

@idonthaveaname2719 4 года назад

@@outdoorfun782 well thats not the point, i already knew how to build this, but the very first thing you should add for a drag build is a brushless system, it is not a drag car if it doesnt have a brushless system

Rpm arms for bandit, turnbuckles for bandit VXL is beefier, axles for bandit. That's about it.

Buck Val yea you might need a few parts, I know the rear arms on a slash are shorter and probably a couple other little things but it shouldn’t be too much, I’ve converted between slash, stampede and rustler a few times, it’s a fun change if you can’t afford another truck
