Default I come bearing parts!

Hey all!
I just got back into xmods since my cousin gave me a box with a ton of accessories. I have a drifter xmods evolution and I'm currently trying to build a crawler truck from my Nissan Titan. I'm here to find some killer mods and to share my new found wealth with the rest of the xmod community.

Any Generation 1's (The chassis doesn't look as cool as the new ones, and are mainly yellow, black and tan-ish)?

Yeah, pics would be great, and we can think of some great ideas for you.

As for the crawler, some people have made them before with servo motors (do you know what this is?) Where they pull out the POT and just use the motor contacts to the motor terminals. This is slow, but has great torque.

Also you have to find a way to strap it onto your xmod too...hehe

Servos be ****ed, Tamiya gearbox FTW! Easier, more power, torque like the gods!

Welcome to XMS To use our buy/sell/trade area, you need 50 posts at least. So, hang around some.

Yeah, I think I have more 'in stock' than most radioshacks did at any time. I think that most anything on the table there is for sale or trade. I already grabbed and upgraded my xmods with the parts of my choosing.
