This is my new to me New Era Chassis Tamiya Juggernaut....I painted the chassis black (used to be pink, gonna powercoat later) wheels red and black and adjusted the suspension...looks good so far..I plan on changing the motors soon too more than likely a brushless system

Now converted to a Clod lol

The North American beaver has a big tail, that thing is expensive.

Does anyone know if ESP still has the juggular kits and parts for sale? I checked their site, but it doesn't look legit and their email address doesn't work.

I did check ebay and thats how I contacted ESP. I wrote to them through their ebay account.
They just wrote back today saying I can order the juggernaut parts from their website, but after reading that ESP Hobby post, maybe I won't in fears of getting bent/cheap parts.

I need to find sum spare jugg parts just in case I start breaking stuff...it has a BTA steering setup, rc4wd driveshafts, custom cantilever in the rear... and the body is a custom Cult Energy wrap.

My New Era Jugg is now a New Era Clod lol...I traded the jugg guts and used sum clod axles I had and the truck runs great..alot less weight on the axles and it moves faster too...I still have a few big plans for it but for now it is resting waiting on a new shell, 4ws and new wheels

but here is how she sits now...

Ok so I took my new era completely apart and repainted the chassis black (I still plan on powdercoating the chassis when i have the extra money but this will do for now)..Im letting it dry for a few days because last time i chipped the paint putting it back together because I was impatient lol...
