Repairs/spare parts?


Bigfoot

Recommended Posts

I managed to damage my brand new Bigfoot no 1 truck after 30 mins of driving it around the yard. See attachments.

 

I assume I should be able to fix it myself but where do I find the exact parts i need for this model?

 

also I am rather surprised how fragile it is. I did not do crazy stunts with it and would expect it would be more robust have I missed something?

Thats the stock part, its quite a weak are, the issue with the Bigfoot is as good as it was at launch its getting over 20 years old now, and things have moved on a lot.

 
Upgraded RPM parts

You can find also find alloy upgrades, but dont go too far with them

Awesome thanks for the help! So if I order these

that should be enough and they are better than the ones that it came with?

You also need 4 of these if you upgrade to those RPM Carriers

You just need 1x pair of RPM front carriers and 4x bearings. 
 

There are a few parts to upgrade to make it stronger but I wouldn’t worry too much until you actually break a part. Just use it and upgrade as you go
