Woot! outdoor pic's at last. Not had a proper chance to try it out as i need to change the radio gear again for the MFC (third time lucky)? So here are some 'staged' pic's. It still goes/stops/turns or you could say it's a runner, but no lights from the controls. Changed the axle shafts for TG10 long ones, this really helped so thanks for the tips folks. There are a few things left to like getting some mounty repro decals find some more metal decalsand touch up work,but im happy to say it's a proper 'light' runner now. I could do with some advice on suspension set up as i took the springs out the shocks but it still runs to hard, There's only one other leaf spring on there (bar the main one) and that being the longest one mounted on the bottom of the main leaf spring. Anyone got any tips for making it 'super' soft without resorting to 4 linking? A truck like this really need the flex.

Nice looking truck. The springs will get softer with time but you'll need to run it a good half a dozen times before they start to soften up. If you don't want to wait RC4WD sell leaf springs taht are 25% softer.

I run my 350 with no springs in the front shocks and one leaf spring. two leaf springs at the back. thats about as soft as you can run it with the Multi fun unit. Hope this helps!!! it does get softer in time as Chef bikes said P.s. Nice truck cheers Ian
