Parts support should be fine, look up D413 parts thru Amain and Superior Hobbies and it will give you an idea of parts available and support for them.

My Exotek center diff is notchy as well. Not the diff movement it self (planetary/sun gears), but when the diff is spinning in the aluminum craddle/bulkhead (when the motor/pinion is not attached).

What shims are we talking about here?

Thx!

Does anybody have a suggestion for the following problem: my front swaybar constantly c ones loose. The little plastic pieces (I don't know what they are called) with the grub screws cannot be tightened down.

With the 72 tooth spur you can go up to a 38 tooth pinion. If you are running the 68 spur you can probably go up to a 40 tooth pinion.

I had the same problem. I put a generous amount of locktite in the hole before threading in the grub screw and haven't had one come out since.

Has Anyone made their own sway bars? if so where did you find the wire? I don't really wanna buy a kit just for wire, since I will probably upgrade to metal instead of plastic and I just need to replace one of my copper sway bars. Thanks!

Hey All, can anyone share some ideas on their sway bar hardware setup? I'd like to switch out the plastic sway bar ends for metal, but wonder what kind of connection I should make to the arms. Thanks in advance!

Some great pics and ideas on the D413 group on facebook. Essentially those guys are using either Kyosho metal sway bar ends or Mugen and using the remaingin existing ball cups and hardware to make the connection to the arms. let me know if you need more help, I'm ordering up parts today.

Someone has to have tried to retrofit a slipper (maybe an Xray slipper).
