• Splined aluminum center driveshaft for dependable power transfer.
• Secure motor mounting system with precision preset gear mesh, motor retention separate from gear mesh, and a full-length motor cradle.
• Heavy-duty modular composite chassis with interlocking front and rear bulkheads that absorb and distribute impact energy while keeping components accessible.
• Driveline is sealed in the chassis to keep out dirt and grit for longer component life.
• Easy battery access with the pack protected deep in the chassis and pivoting hold-downs for quick changes and secure retention.
• Tough energy-absorbing front and rear bumpers with lower skids for abrasion resistance and integrated nerf bars for side impact protection.
• TSM-rated for controlled handling in challenging conditions.
• Wheelie bar with integrated carry handle for safer high-throttle starts and easier transport.
• Heavy-duty steering bell cranks and servo saver keep steering inputs precise and protected.
• Large-scale high-output steering servo delivering 285 oz-in of torque with a 0.18 sec transit speed and a new mounting system that fully supports the case.
• Heavy-duty double-shear bellcranks for stronger steering linkages.
• Suspension tuned for travel and steering with double shear strength at critical points and steel pivot hardware.
• 4 mm machined pivot balls, C-hub and steering block geometry that maximize steering angle, and an adjustable roll center.
• Fixed, high-strength camber and toe links with steel upper and lower tie bars for precise alignment retention.
• Full-contact sealed bearings used in exposed locations to reduce wear from dirt and debris.
• New GT-Maxx shocks featuring machined aluminum threaded bodies, extra-large bore and capacity, large-diameter damper shafts, and lower seal cartridges with dual X-rings.
• Shocks include adjustable upper spring retainers, plastic shock caps with pivot balls, and bolted lower spring perches for serviceability.
• Wheels and tires are tough 2.8" wheels with keyed 17 mm hex receptors and large 5.5" all-terrain dual-diameter tires.
• One-piece foam inserts are used in the tires and they arrive pre-glued and ready for action.
