I am awaiting the arrival of my new truck and am on the prowl for info and upgrades needed , would rather do them then to break down. Has anyone had issues with wheel bearings or bearing hubs that would make sense to replace right away??? Also what should i do with the steering servos and is there any pro steering parts that one should swap on before damage ??


I have read many posts here and this group of guys seems cool and ontop of the game , glad to be a part !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wheel bearings on the MT are fine. Servos need upgrading. My throttle servo crapped out right away. My hitec steering servos are still in the box. My stockers are still hanging in there.

tough trucks like RCDAD said throttle servo steering seems ok on them a 990 walbro and a pipe would be a good start and a 5b airfilter you will love it

Ditto, to the above posts. I also changed out my steering servo's as well because they burnt up. And, while I was at it put a good throttle servo in it that I had kicking around. My stocker was still good but I didn't want it to go while I was driving my truck.

Ti turnbuckles from python is a nice upgrade.... I have broken countless stock turnbuckles (fronts). 813 or 990 walbro carb is a nice upgrade also.
