More RAM 1500s Expected July / August 2026

Unfortunately, we have completely sold out of the 1/8 Scale RAM 1500 vehicles. This is one of the most popular vehicles we have ever sold and it is hard to keep them on the shelves.

Fortunately, we have more on the way. We are expecting to have the next shipment, in all of our warehouses (US, UK, and Canada) sometime around July or August of this year. We will have restocks on all of the colors, and even a new color: Yellow!

You can pre-order yours now to ensure you get the color you want.

New Reverse Kit for Monster Trucks

For 1/5 scale Primal RC monster trucks, we now offer an upgraded reverse kit. This kit helps keep the truck securely locked in reverse while allowing smooth and easy shifting back into forward.

New Reverse Kit

New Kit Assembly Video

It fits all versions of 1/5 scale Primal RC trucks equipped with the stock transmission. This kit is not compatible with the RMT239-259 Electric Conversion transmission.

The kit also includes an extra pin and springs for the transmission. Some trucks do not have the second spring installed on the reverse fork inside the transmission. Adding this second spring significantly improves engagement when shifting into reverse. If you choose to install the second spring, we strongly recommend using a high power servo. For best performance, we recommend the Primal RC 38kg brushless servo.
