Want to put some uber strong driveshafts on your Traxxas Slash 4×4, Stampede 4×4, or Traxxas Rally car? With the new Traxxas #6869 12mm wheel adapters you can use the heavy duty steel-splined driveshafts that were originally designed for the XO-1 supercar. The new 12mm hex’s have a 6mm inner diameter, thus allowing use of the heavier driveshafts. A drill [...]
Are you tired of blowing up the stock Traxxas spur gear on your Slash, Stampede, or Rally 4×4? Or maybe you are just looking for a smoother running alternative? If so, the guys over at JConcepts have just introduced a new spur for you, their Silent Speed Spur Gears for the Traxxas 4×4 line-up. These spurs are machined for a [...]
Here’s yet another incredible body from Pro-Line, their Bulldog clear body for the Traxxas Stampede. The Bulldog design yields increased front down-force thus helping to keep the nose of your truck down during speed runs, and giving more front end bite in high speed corners. Street price is $25, and you can get more information at THIS link on Pro-Line’s [...]
During extreme use a battery pack can be subject to a lot of g-forces, around the BigSquidRC offices we see battery packs get thrown out of trucks all the time. A good battery brace can help prevent this from happening. JConcepts has two new Monroe battery braces that are stronger and offer more coverage than stock. One brace is designed [...]
So here’s a little video of the Traxxas Stampede 4×4 in action! Wherever we go, we usually have this one with us because it’s just fun to bash with. The video is a little montage of some front flips, back flips, and a few reverse double back flips. If you are wondering about the Stampede, and thinking about buying one, you [...]
In the beginning of May, Brian posted his review on the Traxxas Stampede 4×4. We actually have a couple of these trucks floating around the office and they really are a great vehicle. However, Brian made mention of a major design flaw (aesthetics wise) in his review that seems to be a common theme; the way the body [...]
Needing some front-end protection for your Traxxas Stampede 4×4? RPM has the answer with their new Wide Front Bumper for the Stampede 4×4. The bumper uses the same design principles found in their Stampede 2×4 front bumper (which I have and love, BTW). It sits out front far enough to be the initial point of impact on [...]
Pro-Line has a few new bodies for a few of Traxxas’ most popular vehicles. Shown above is the new, officially licensed Chevy Silverado 2500 HD body for the Stampede and Stampede 4×4. Also available is a body based on the over-compensating GMC TopKick medium duty road truck for the various T-Maxx and Revo platforms, including the Summit and E-Revo, and [...]
A friend at Pro-Line sent along this exclusive photo and a brief description of their next wheel in the pipeline. It goes by the name Desperado and is a 2.8″ wheel made for various Traxxas vehicles like the nitro and electric Stampedes, Jato, and the Rustlers. It uses the Traxxas style glue bead, so it’s compatible with Traxxas’ 2.8″ tires [...]
Dear Cubby, Who makes the body lowering kit for the Traxxas Stampede 4×4 and where can I buy one? Your truly, Billy D. Cubby– Funny you should ask that question the same week that Brian posted his Pede 4×4 review. I trust you are loving your truck except for its overly lifted body. If it came murdered out in flat black paint you’d [...]
Have a new Stampede 4×4? Tired of it getting loaded down with crap? Sure you are. JConcepts may have a solution with their new Stampede 4×4 over-tray. The over-tray is designed to have a tight fit around the entire chassis, helping to keep all the dirt and debris out. It’s formed out of clear polycarbonate, ready to be painted to [...]
Here’s something that’s a bit overdue. The Trencher tread is now available for the Stampede, Stampede 4×4, and other 2.8″ wheeled trucks from Pro-Line. This is a basher friendly, very aggressive tread that should provide you with plenty of hook-up in all kinds of conditions, from hard dirt and pavement to tall grass and deep mud. All of which together [...]
Got a new Stampede 4×4? Already tired of the stock body? JConcepts has a potential solution for you. That is, if you even want your Stamp to look like a Ford SVT Raptor Super Crew. If you don’t, well, what’s wrong with you? Everybody else wants one, why do you have to be so different and difficult? What would your [...]
