I tried them but they're a lot thicker causing the slipper unit to be wider, do you sand them down? The yokomo ones are about .7mm wide, the mckunes about 0.9mm

get the Mckune slipper pads they are awesome on carpet and high bite clay/dirt and probally last the life of your yok ...you can actually set them a little loser and they stay way more consistent over a run plus once they start to glaze up a little sanding and they are like new

how often are you changing your pads on high bite clay? I'm gonna try sand down my Mckune pads to the same as the yokomo ones as they're a lot thicker and cause the slipper unit to not fit
Im running on high traction carpet and have noticed my pads glazed quicker than I expected.. maybe also excess slip during jumps as I struggled to clear them last race meet. Also slipper was a tad looser than before when I eyeballed it 0.1~0.3 less...(the time I don't use my calipers!! )

I installed the McKune FR-4 slipper pads (which fit like a glove) and adjusted the slipper nut to 2mm instead of 2.5mm to 3mm and it works like a champ. When running my Bmax I found it to be a lot more responsive without the barking when you burp the throttle.

Tried them again and it was a very tight fit with 2mm gap. Did you find it a tighter fit? Definitely no play now versus oem... So hopefully better with mesh over time

Rippen - how are the new pads going for you?
i just roached another spur that may be did max 10 cycles... Was pulling hot laps then came off a jump, landed and then yanked the throttle and did a wheelie and then spur was roached.

BMAX4 II DIFF CONVERSION
Hi guys, need to update a friends Bmax4 II plastic 12 ball diff to the 16 ball diff.. I have the 16 ball diff gear set and I know i'll need the short long outdrive and B2 diff plates, but will the 16 ball diff gear fit in the Bmax4 II diff casing? any help appreciated as the old 12 ball diff gears are getting hard to find. Cheers.
