    Trucks Need Help Identifying Old T-maxx For Rebuild!

    Yea, if we are having fun someone can't stand it. You already know what I think. Still have the forum. I am getting better with the drone and it helps me to control the T-Maxx better. I am sure the 3.3 is faster but this is a hoot. I have a 12v hair dryer to pre heat the engine. Motorcycle...

    I have the truck running out pretty good. I can't even say how much I have learned from you. I have not been able to find you on YouTube on Sunday's. I enjoyed that.

    Hi, it's your damn fault. Airplane chats and stuff. I have all most everything for the tmaxx. I turned sharp port and bought a new quad or drone. Nobody vids the TMaxx from a drone. Yet

    I have had some unique learning curves. It's been a trip I have it about 80% complete now. I have the 2.5 all rebuilt and new. Drive line is new from the wheels to tranny. Let the shocks sit overnight to get rid of the bubbles. Carb is rebuilt. I ran out of money. Got down to beer or parts...

    Much more to do. But I am sure I will know way more than someone who just buys a new one off the shelf and plays with the truck. I will know all about it. As a hobby it doesn't get better than that.

    Im old. I reserve the right to be confused. At least I am committed to the 2.5. I have about 120.00 in the project so far. I am doing okay I think 2 cartons of cigarettes cost more than that.

    I found a 2.5 with pipe owb bell housing & ez start used dirty but seller said it's in decent shape and I paid 45.00 You said the block is worth 25.00 so I took a nap and rolled the bones. Pipe and ez start and carb is going to cost me more than that. Crazy train keeps moving.

    I will go with your assessment of the truck. I have about a hundred bucks a month to play with. If it takes 6 months it takes 6 months. Thank you. The steering is hooked up. It seems to be working.

    Sounds strange but dirt can be a useful tool for a mechanic.

    Thank you. I can turn the wrenches. I just need a little help with the parts I need to get the truck running. Parts numbers for servos mainly. The rest is common sense to me. I have a diff and Axel's coming. The servo that handles the throttle is there. The 2055 that controls the steering it...

    That's easy. The front differential is gone. The tranny yoke is there. The axel yokes are there. I have located them on eBay. One of the merchant guys said the 2075 server is much better. He said the .15 is way underpowered. 2.5 is the way to go. I believe that. It may take me a bit to get the...

    I have switched to whiskey. I am not going to make you cry. The .15 is no more. No mas, ain't going to do it. Except for the fuel tank I need everything. Glo plug down. 3.3 I like. 2.5 I like. I need everything that isn't in the picture.

    The decimal point bit me. Being the greenest green noob makes me cry. Now I am not hunting rabbits I found a new head button. Piston and rod are fine. Clean them anyway. I think I can make it run. This months money is gone. But I have much more to do with my new toy.
