Tech Regular
I just picked up a Yok SD-SSG and the Rayspeed ultimate conversion. I should have gotten the CGM but woulda shoulda Coulda huh...
Anyway
Does anybody have any building tips to pass down?
And does anyone know where to pick up the Team Suzuki front steering knuckles? I know Speedtech has them listed, but they have been out of stock forever...I am looking to get the fronts and rears....
Thanks!
John

SD Diff gears
Would a TC3 diff gear fit an SD? I am having problems with the front one way gear stripping after a few runs. How can I solve this problem?

danjoy, the TC3 gears will not fit. If you are running a 1way, you are stripping gears either because the spacing is wrong or most likely because of hitting boards. I did this a lot before I added the buds front bumper. Anytime I would rub a board with the front wheels it would chip a tooth.
eklips, here is a picture of the bumper installation. It is a buds front bumper for a TC3 with only slight modifications. It takes about 5 min to install and really saves a lot of front end parts.
Randman, so far I am liking the 2.5 gear reduction. It only effected the puch a little but the motor temp and run time were much better. In practice, I ran the same 10x1 I ran in the main at the 2 day race in Stockton, without cutting it, and it ran for 6:15 and I could hold on to the motor without burning myself.
The car was definately better than the Rayspeed chassis car I have been running. It didn't bogg down in the middle of the corners and was very consistant. It didn't tweak at all after any impacts either. I will put the setups I ran today up on my website in a little while.

Hey Matt, I have been meaning to ask you if you are still running the Tobee aluminum shaft in your SD? And if so, if you would recommend it for Stock AS WELL AS 19T (the CAPS are due to my using the Yok. Graphite shaft for 19T --- for about 3 minutes! -- SNAP!).
Cheers.

Randman- have you weighed your CGM yet? I won't be able to use the track scale until next Saturday or Sunday. Also, how did you get your original SD to be so light? Mine was a little bit under the weight limit, but not a ton.

This car needs a diet
I had my yokomo weighed at snowbirds and it weighs almost 56 oz. w/ 3300 cells, it's really heavy and the suspension is still very weak
