Before running it, you should check the shimming on the diffs, and the oils.
I've been thinking bout building a Kraton 6S, but if i do so, i'll buy the EXB roller version. The thing is, i saw quite a few reviews on the kraton, and people seem to break a lot of stuff, bulkheads, hubs, braces, diff teeth, bending chassis and so on.... the amount of after market stuff i would have to buy to make it reliable it's considerable, at least for the use i would give to it,
 
The Kraton is on the bench , going to shim the diffs and install all the SWEET Scorched RC parts I have been collecting for it. This stuff is made in the UK and shipping only took a week for it to arrive, I have the alloy front bumper mount, and the super basher bumper, I got the heatsink for the motor with 2 fans to help with airflow over that big motor, also got the alloy battery buckle set because the stock ones flex alot, also the servo cage with CF top plate the rear hinge pin plates in aluminum with adjustable inserts, I saw the Ti motor screws also and got them nd to top it all off the Rear brace/skid plate in ti so it will shower sparks if I decide to show off at night

Did a bit more on the BEAST, put on the rotolock motor mount/center diff mounts That Scorched offers, i must say it is a better system than the stock stuff, I had it out in october and all it would do on the line was wheelie and backflip, and that was on loose sand, Found a solution online and put on the wheelie bar sold by King Hobby on the back it is 5mm carbon and has an alloy mount for the wheels, this thing is now DIALED in, the howl it makes when running is AWESOME, next time out I hope to get a couple vids, but no more backflipping just forward motion... just got in the rear hubs and front knuckles for it also, a few more goodies and this one will be done...
