Default My truck wont do wheelies!

All i hear about is how the t-maxx is the ultimate wheelie machine. Mine has never been able to, when it was stock and not that it has alum. bulkheads and Front bumper. Im pretty sure that its tuned right, but shouldn't it have enough power to pull a wheelie even with the alumunum? Any tips or adjustments i should make? Thanks for your help!

aluminum suspension parts wont make it do wheelies, only strengthen it, if anything it weighs the front end down more giving it less of a chance to wheelie.

I didn't mean that the alum. parts would help, just saying what i had on it.

Never ran mine with a stock pipe but with a big bore from sirio, it would yank the wheels all day long. My room mate drilled out all of the guts to his stock pipe and has the same effect.
