Yeah Pink Pink might be good. I ran Black fronts Pink Rears last weekend off-road, low bite outdoor. It's definitely hard to get 24mm with the green fronts. If the green Springs were 65mm, instead of 70 it would be nice. With the 70mm Green 28 is about the norm (with batt).
Pink front, Green Rears is also worth a try.
So far I like Pink/Pink best with 25/35 Losi oil.
Next rebuilt I'm going to 5/5/2 in the Diffs, and see how that changes things.
Is it possible to Reuse Diff gaskets?? Or must you replace them with each rebuild?

I have pink on the front and stock blacks on the back right now, I may try pinks in back as well. The kit setup was pretty good for me on the surface you are running on and think it would be even better If I could get 25/24MM ride height in front but I'm still at like 28+MM in front with no preload.

Hey, does anyone know of a company that makes heatshrink tubing in the colors that tekno uses for spring designation? Got some truggy springs here and tekno's method of putting paint on the springs is hard for me to see at times since they are silver and it rubs off too. wouldn't mind using tubing instead like AE on the 1/10 stuff and Durango do for quick identification.

Honestly, some bashers never change it. But normal racers change it often, and experiment with different weights. I'd say once a month is fine, but its not absolutely mandatory. You can let it go awhile... It won't hurt anything.

Ok so I am looking at purchasing one of these as I currently have a pro4 enduro that I was given to get into the class. I had a few questions though, Would a castle 540 3800 4 pole 1410 motor and sct esc be enough power for this car? I saw the gearing chart and it said this Kv but I didn't know if it was for a 550. Also what servo would you recommend for it? I am looking for something On the cheaper side. Also would (with the aforementioned combo) a 5500 mah battery last 10 minutes? Lastly are there any problem areas with this car? This part may have been mentioned already but I did not see it.
Thanks

Turning.
Hard packed and dusty. Running Proline Blockades with great luck and going to try the AKA Gridiron 2 next. I want the truck to roll more on turns and dig in for off power turning. I already softened up my front springs and will probably play with more negative camber next, but when do I start trying to play with my sway bar as and softening it up so the vehicle rolls more?

The motor will move the truck OK, the speedo will likely not though. On a budget check out the Hobbywing SCT Pro. A 5500 pack will likely barely do 10 minutes. Youll be near the very end of the battery and close to cutoff quickly. Look into a 6500 or 7200 from SMC. The kit does include fluids, but get a couple extra shock oils in the 30-35 range. The stock rear oil is very light. Only other thing youll need is an aluminum servo horn.

"This is for my race rigs only"
That may be true but I can tell you that a lot of that suff will not last very long and you will be buying it many times. I am a firm believer in the "cry once" mentality. Nobody has to buy the most expensive stuff out there but sometimes it is a case of you get what you pay for. I've tried 3 crappy Turnigy (my opinion) servos in my 410. All three failed in a short period of time. Thats $105 down the drain. I could have bought a Protek 130T and be done with it for $90. I'm not saying everybody will have problems with the Turnigy stuff but I did and I won't go that route again.
Most people do not run Hobbywing. You generalize an awful lot in your posts. In fact, I don't think I have seen a single Hobbywing in any of the 4x4 SCT at my local track, of course I haven't seen them all. The ones I've seen use Tekin, Viper and Orion. I personally only use Tekin ESC's because I like them, they last and Hotwire is great. I'm open to different motors but so far I found the 4300HD and 10L to be my favorite for my Tekno.

I'm running the Hobby wing Xerun SCT combo right now and I started having problems with the truck shutting down halfway in the race. I lowered the max voltage to setting 1 and it's still doing it. I just bought a Castle BEC to see if that will fix it, but been too wet lately. I ordered a RX8 Gen 2, I will try that.
