ok, i already have 2 1200mah packs, and an orion big block motor, i know im going to get the chassis brace thing, eventually im going to get it all aluminum, starting with the chassis, also does anyone know if they make aluminum diff cases for the mini t? i dont ever remember seeing one. i know i have to get a new servo and im going to pick up the chassis brace tomorrow, and maybe if i go xmas shopping for mom and dad i can run over to LH and spend the rest, lol, and then im asking for gift cards from LH, but first i have to get my motor for the maxx. then comes the mini t, i think im going to try to get it all aluminum this winter because of xmas and then with my bday in january

I'm sure if you checked on eBay you'll find one, I have seen them for the 18T made by integerty and GPM. Try RCmart on ebay, he is out of Hong Kong and has tons of Mini-T aluminum parts.

Some others I have talked to didn't like the quality of the Losi oil shocks. Anyone have alternate suggestionsfor shocks that fit it and keep the oil inside the shocks?
