well, some basic tips are replace/upgrade as things break, and if you are looking for performance gains, they are tough trucks out of the box and while aluminum looks great, it's really not needed here unless you like the looks. Stick with RPM stuff and you'll have a tough, light truck and extra money to spend on motors and batteries and other go fast goodies.

Only think i can think is a must to upgrade to is turnbuckles if you do not have them.

Charger-wise, i use MRC's, never had a problem with them. The 977 is pretty nice, dual outputs and basic lipo capability.
