t-maxx = most it has ever been broke
#1
I was out driving today, and I hit the brakes, but they didn't work, and it started to slow finally, but then it hit a tree, and this happened:

is there anyone that knows maxxes very well, that can maybe meet me and help me figure out all that I need to buy?

You said the brakes didn't work...I was guessing the steering still did?

I guess getting you the failsafe is no big hurry now....we'll do it another day.

the receiver batteries I think were to dead, because I tried steering, and it kept going straight.

Yep...both bulkheads and the front skid. Did you take apart the steering assembly or did the screw break? (left side of the 3rd pic)

I didn't take anything apart, so I think the screw is missing, it looks like a lot more damage than it really is, I was expecting tons of money put into this, by the looks of it. Can someone maybe meet me somewhere, or come to my house, and help me with replacing the stuff, because I don't have the slightest idea, like Saturday or Sunday, or even tomorrow. I will go to Al's and buy two bulkheads and front skid, so i have them ready.

ok cool, i might just have a few people over at my house but IDK, it shouldnt take you too long to fix it, if you just pay attention to what you are doing you can do it yourself i know that you are probally a little afraid that you might mess something up but working on these things isnt as hard as it seems, just try it and if you do mess something up someone will help you. Just remember you have to take both upper and lower arms off to get the bulkheads off. Mine did that a few months ago but only on the rear.

I am know it isn't hard to fix these things, I had to replace spur gear yesterday, I have had to replace the draglink too, and lower a-arm too, I just want someone there to help on this one, just in case anything goes wrong, so if not Sunday with you Junkee, probably Sunday with Bottled. But as I said I will have the 2 bulkheads and the front skid purchased and waiting.

if you have the money go with the RPM arms like i have, I havent broke one yet and i have had the truck for at least 6 months They are about 11 dollars a pair, but well worth it, on my dads stock truck he breaks arms all the time.

they are only 11 a pair??? damn I didn't know that, I will have to get them then, that is if I have enough, I have been wanting to get them, but I thought they were more expensive. I have around $60 to spend, so if I have enough they will be purchased to go on it too. how much are bulkheads around??
