Sorry to say a big no go.The stock AE 370 motor is considered disposable. It only lasts a short time. Mine was toast after about 25-30 battery runs threw it.I replaced mine with a few different motors. My Rc18B had a Reedy 19turn in it.My Rc18Truggy has the Reedy 17turn in it. My RC18N has a LRP fusion high speed motor in it. And my RC18R has a Venom Fireball motor in it.TheVenom is a closed end bell nonrebuildable like the stock motor just a bit faster. You can also go with the Chubby motor.Better than stock but not $40 like the Reedy motors. Most people go brushless and Li-Po but I haven't cause I got all this stuff already. Hope this helps.Later,Wrench.

The wheels and tires on the RC18Truggy are by Trinity ans are for the mini-t rears X4. They actully run real good. All you have to do is change the gearing a tooth or 2. I can find the part #'s if you need them just drop me a line.L8R,Wrench.

I didn't buy them pur say. I did but I built them one by one. I got an RC18B for a gift. Well I started hopping it up till it became a highly modified creation. Then I took all the spare parts and built another. Well one truck has now led to 5 RC18's in all types of modes. I sourced most all the parts on eBay and from some e-stores from all over the world.The Truggy was a complete build out. The only AE parts left on it are the diff. gears and the diff. balls.Oh and the bearings. Everything else I bought online and installed as I could afford them. I think I build and rebuilt that truck 5 times before it was done and as you see it before you. Thanks for all the kind words. I like em and glad I could share my visions with you all. L8R,WrenchHead.

where can i buy the whellie bar and those wheels for the rc18t The wheelie bar you can get from hot racing and the tires i think are trinity rear mini t monster tires.


where did you get the tire decals on the RC18B i want to do that but not on tires now because i did a little tire spinning and am missing a section of pins on a rear wheel lol
