funny you said that Chris. I have been looking at them for a while now and just ordered them lastnight. Havent talk to anyone that ran them so I dont know how much more mellow it will really make the car.

Yes, this happened to me too! Nothing you can notice until they're loose enough that motor moves. Wonder if this is why some guys are stripping spurs even though they think their mesh is perfect?

And you fixed that bad ass buggy faster than a Nascar team. That was some fun driving last night.im going up to 5k in rear and changing to 2 mm shims on bottom of front hub carriers instead of 1 and 1. I run 3 dot in front to chime in on above . It said (aggressive ) why I bought it .

Had a good chuckle when I checked our small local offroad forum this morning. D413 bone stock roller with no extra parts and lots of obvious wear and tear. Asking $500 with the standard "electronics shown are not included" quote. I so want to reply but the mods tend to hand out wrist slaps to negative comments of buy and sell posts.

Yea but asking $500 doesn't mean you have to pay it, someone could easily offer him the kit price and he might accept based on Supply and Demand right now.

That's what ticks me off. He's hoping to take advantage of some guy who's dying to get his hands on one but can't find in stock. This buggy had no chassis protector, chassis's all gouged, tires are worn down and he didn't even clean it up before pics. It's not worth any more than $250 IMO

as much as i like this buggy now that i have it i would have never considered paying more than kit price for a roller. its an rc car not essential to survival. lol then again some people spend crazy money in this hobby to have the latest and greatest.

Can someone help me out. I have a d413 with a hobbywing v3.1 esc. and a shorty pack and the car goes backwards when i hit the throttle. Read in the manual for the esc and cant find anything for reversing the motor on the esc.

thanks

Your diffs are in the housings backwards. Look at the manual and make sure you follow the instructions for building the car with a shorty battery.
