Hey Dave, those shims you talked about for the small bevel gears, do you have a part number for them? will have to see if I can get them in the UK. They must be a tight fit as my cuda doesn't seem to have much, if any, play in the small gears. From your discription you seem to be pushing the small gear towards te larger gear for a tighter mesh yet you shimm the diff so it's a looser mesh 
strange how it makes things quieter.
I'm still getting laughed at for my tractor

..ohhh well the new new new...ones only need a 0.1mm shim an the 1st R2 ones need a 0.2mm shim and the R1 gears need 0.3mm shim... also it make the car more quiet because it keeps the gear from going back and forth.. -Dave

thats what I think they did with the Newest set of gears..that ALEX Racing just made about 2 months ago ...
..I`m just picky with the car being quiet since I spent almost 2 weeks making this shim thing work
