Havent run it yet. Took it all apart yesterday to check it out. Cleaned it completely. Took the diffs apart. What weight oil do you all use for these buggys. I put 50 in the front and 40 in the rear. Silicone. Rebuilding shocks now. What weight is best for shocks as well?

I don't know about the shock oil weight, but I use 10,000 silicone weight oil in my diffs for my MT. You can Google the shock weight oil type.

Nice! Here's a peek at a custom MT I've been working on the past few months. Awaiting my motor from OBR is all that's left.

Are the aluminum upgrades worth it on these trucks for bashing? I have the two front arms in aluminum.

Yes they are worth it. Plastic doesn't hold up very long.
