Question can someone answer my question this time, please?

Hello, i'm know this has been asked a million times and I'm sure everyone will think i suck. I'm just getting into xmods and i have 1 on the way in the mail and one waiting to be sent in the mail. My question is, what is everything i have to do to safely run 6 cell on the gen1 chassis at the lowest price. And by safely i mean to where all of the parts will still be pretty durable and not breaking everytime i drive it. I have a DuraTrax Evader ST so I'm not new to R/C, just xmods. After i save enough money for lith's than I'll have to find out about that too, but right now I only want to know about 6 cell, any kind of help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.

-Tommy

Edit: Thanks for the replies everybody... this makes like 3 of my posts/questions unanswered. I've already read the tutorial but it doesn't tell you which parts you should upgrade to alloy so they don't break often once you've done 6 cell. I'm getting kind of sick of no one ever answering anything i post. Maybe it's cause I'm new. Anyway, if anyone can tell me anything about this i would appreciate it. (not trying to sound like a jerk)

you really dont have to run any alloy parts with a 6 cell as long as you dont lock your rear diff..but maybe like cups and dogbones

the nelly acts as a external FET board, meaning you will not need any fets and infact the install on it does require the removal of the Stock FETS. Lithium ion will work with pretty much any setup you want to do. just be careful not to overload the car.
Getting to your 6 cell alloy or whatever, you shouldnt really need to upgrade any parts for the 6 cell due to there isnt a extreme increase as lithiums, if you want to get lithiums, you should upgrade your front knuckles to alloy. and as mentioned above, you might need dogbones if your running 4wd.

Also, instead of getting frustrated about nobody answering your questions, read through the forum, most likely it has been already answered and people dont want to reply to something that has already been done.

yeah i know how it is. i looked around but i could find anything about upgrading the knuckles and that, so thanks for the help on that. I wasn't frustrated I'm just really impatient, i need to work on that. No hard feelings to anyone.

u can buy a 2AAA batt. pack from rs and cut the wire thats on the xmods and solder it together but u need heat shrink to go over the solder, or u can desolder the wire from the batts and re solder the 6 cell on
