I am a former offroad racer guy, I am a big suspension geek! When the Revo first hit the scene, I got one to race. Raced stock besides forward only conversion. I dialed the suspension with 20 weight oil, red w/orange stripe springs in front. I can't find my rear shocks atm but I believe I went 1 stiffer, That's what she said! I got away with that using the #3 rocker. The most progressive. This was hell 10 years ago huh. I'm a Dad now LMAO! But I still got my revo :) If you want a low ride height, but not a weak suspension at the bottom, use a more progressive rocker. The more it compresses the more it resists. From there you can use the oil and springs to dial it in on that truck! Hope that helps a bit!

RcSparks is one of the few channels i always hit the like button to. Reason being, is there's been a view times where I've left comments and medic has actually responded back. They actually take the time to help out there views/fans. RcSparks ROCKS!

My son and I enjoyed this. He just loves this rig of your. He's funny cause he looks at me and says daddy do you want one like Medic's. I smiled back and said yea we will plan to get one of those one day soon.

Hey Medic, I will always vote for on camera repairs but....that being said...Do the repairs on camera ONLY if you have the time and energy and Jem is well rested! (She needs a rest after bringing in such a beautiful child) I love to see your masterful work but Jem and the little one take prescient over what I want. And if you ever get tired of that ratrod let me know...that is truly badass and after seeing it I looked up hydro-dipping...very cool process and if I can ever afford to get one done I will be ordering one from the guys that did yours. Thanks for the update and please give Jem a hug and kiss on the check from me for a job well done! Your son is beautiful and I hope Jem had a easy time, she is a very cool lady! Take care and God Bless you and your family.

If it’s not a problem I would like to see the repair on your Reaper Rat Rod. Easier to learn when I watch. I’m still fairly new to this hobby so I tend to be hesitant in taking things apart. It is helpful for me to see what you do first. 👍🏼

Please keep building and fixing. I would strongly recommend Savage Wheel nuts and to shim your diff, much better diff life. Also if it is the spider gears being the problem then try grinding down the diff cup where the ring screws onto it. I can send you a vid if you want. I love the Reaper series!

Good video medic! Glad to see your upgrading what needs to be strengthened. If you really want good quality springs for the summit/revo platform check out integy springs. I have the blue and yellow on my Erevo and the help a lot. They are longer and way beefier then the Traxxas springs. I was also wondering about the X-Ball driveshafts. You should get a set of those and test to see if the really are indestructible!

Nice break in for this beastly build man! I'm all too familiar with the weakness of these E Revo and Summit diffs. If you were willing to ditch the lockers then you could do the Losi xxl lst diff mod/swap to beef these up. However I'm assuming you'll be sticking with the stock diffs/ lockers etc. so just make sure you shim the new diffs really good. Then set your slipper a tad on the loose side. With these huge tires you will probably just have to beef up your slipper clutch (there's a few good options available) and let that take the extra stress off those diffs. Thanks for the great vids man!

I gotta say that body is insane! I think those that don't like it are just jealous.lol Once again grate video, covering the bases from beginner to experienced and still able to keep it all interesting. I still can't get over those wheel and tire combos. If after the new wheel nuts you still have issues you could always squirt a dab of good ole blue threadlock on them.lol just a thought, I know I've had to on some of my builds. Keep up the great work, but remember family first. We will all still be here and understand that as a new father there are priorities.

I know that I'd like to see the repair/upgrade phase, as might others with the same machine. (You just may be showing them how they'll be spending their time and money in the future. *L*) I look forward, as always, to your next video.

I was wanting to know if you ever design a on purpose breaking point, to protect the more expensive hard to repair on the trail? I'm showing my farm training, we always had a weak point built into the equipment that was easy to fix, and protected the more expensive, I got to go back to the shop fix. Just like my RC brushed motors, I always solder a stub wire with a deans male end on it, and a adapter wire with the female end on that side, so it's two screws and then just plug the motor in, and back to the fun with almost no downtime!
