    Default My Nitro Rustler build

    I wanted to share my Rustler build. I have moded it to a 2 speed using a Jato transmisson. I also have Jato front A arms but I dont like the look so im going to go back to Rustler VXL arms. What do think?

    Looks great! These are great trucks, it's too bad they aren't as popular as they used to be.

    I always say it, but someday I'm going to give my Nitro Sport a whole make over. It was my first RC and its a great platform.
    Is this thing still on?

    This truck started as a sport back in the day. The Jato arms are looked great when I had the rustler rear end in because it was all the same with. I dont care for the look of the wider front end.

    yeah i have them on my rustler and it makes such a difference in handling IMO. It rarely rolls over anymore, i have to pin the truck the turn sharp and even then it still stays planted

    oh it def. makes it handle great. I haven't driven it on pavement yet. On my dirt rd I can't keep it straight. As soon as 2nd gear kicks in. spin out.
