What spareparts to have in stock for a munstertruck

[Adrian Desentis]

Hi, I,m about to buy on the net (Tower Hobbies and if you know a
cheaper place i will thank you for the tip) a munster truck, I have
not decided yet between the T-Maxx or the HPI Savage, I live in Mexico
City and we don,t have many RC or Hobby stores as you in the US, and
in the existent you can only find a few things and with big (I mean
BIG) prices, the double in the best of the cases, I need to know what
spareparts are the most common you need for this kind of cars to buy
one or two at the same time I buy the car and have it in stock, I dont
want to buy my new toy and in the first week of use break something
and wait another month to have it running again.

Thank you

Make sure you get a few extra glow plugs and a big bottle of fuel.
apart from that you shouldn't have any problems if you aren't ramming it
into walls.

From those prices, it might be worth a trip to Texas to make the initial
purchase.
