well, i re built the front already. i used rear t-maxx links and gained another inch (insert joke here) and a whole lot of articulation. i can get the wheel over the can w/o the rears coming off the ground.

im going to try the e-savage gears first. if i dont like that im going for the lathe motor. can you recommend and brand?
