Re: JRXT threaded shocks upgrade?

The JRXT uses .9" shocks front and rear (assuming 5-link suspension and shock tower). The original shock seal cartridges are a different length inside and out though, so when you use the newer style cartridge, you need to use the included spacers to make sure the shock travel is correct. You ca...

Re: Traxxas sending cease and desist letters to aftermarket companies then backing off.

It's pretty clear how they want their brand and Logo used actually and makes sense.

RPM can't use the Traxxas logos on their packaging.

It has to be clear that it is a product made by RPM and is not made by Traxxas.

Re: Brushed motors display stand

Once you get them displayed, you should wire up all 200+ so that they can run at the same time.

Re: RC10T Team Truck rear suspension mount variations

In my experience the original suspension arm mounts have been more durable. I just use the the white HD version on display vehicles.

The top pictured rear suspension mount is the first generation HD (Heavy Duty) suspension mounts. They were available in three degree and zero degree, in white and black.
