Great looking truck so far! You definitely have some RC blood in ya already! . Welcome to the truck side . Can't wait to see this one finished and see what your next one will look like

I know you mentioned upgraded gears, just wondering if your considering a gear reduction unit? Stock kits are crazy fast ! Had my truck and tanker trailer on 9 wheels once...almost layed it down but managed to somehow save

Keep the pics comin.

The truck is looking great Dustin!

I'm no expert in all the various ways to slow a truck down and gain some torque.
I'm sold on the PMD gear reduction units. All 3 of my trucks use them. Although you could use a different pinion gear or higher torque motor to acheive the same result, I like how the PMD unit increases the torque after the tranny , meaning there's no extra strain on it.
