I've traditionally done the diff screw head on the left side (driver's side), but have since switched to the Right side (passenger side) regardless of transmission type (3 gear RM vs 3 gear MM and 4 gear MM). Kdub (Kurt Wenger, former AE designer) had this to say on the matter: I think I count as an authority on the matter. I always run my diff screw on the right side (when sitting "inside" the car). I take off the tire and pull the outer hinge pin to get to the adjustment screw.
The right rear is the way the AE manuals state (or used to state). It really shouldn't matter since you go around turns both left and right.

Anyone run into the problem where the outdrive pin just does not fit? Both pins can fit into the other outdrive so it is not a problem with the pins....but the other outdrive will not fit....

A lot of recent setup sheets posted are showing folks moving to the 6mm hubs.
I ordered a set, anxious to see what kind of difference they make.

I'm due to make another purchase myself its been a couple years: https://www.mcmaster.com
A $200 order of stainless screws a few years ago probably was good enough to assemble a couple of dozen cars.

Box stock with a 4000mah SMC battery = 1528g
with a 2600mah LRP battery = 1460g
That's with tires and painted body also.
I just realized that I changed the battery brace with the 2600mah battery, so that weight is probably wrong. The 4000mah battery was using the stock body and wing.
Dangit, I am also not running the stock body or wing with the light battery. Ok, it's official, I bring nothing to the table.
