Agama rear hubs fit, all you have to do is drill out the hole for the hinge pin a little. ill be trying this next time i run the truggy.
Over time, the aluminum upper servo saver will remain in better shape than plastic upper. Plastic on plastic will become gritty and reduce the saver action.
Since we set the servo saver tight to have good steering, the plastic servo horn will break. But if the saver is set looser than the manual suggestion the truck will loose steering slightly.
For best durability and consistency get the aluminum servo horn as soon as you can. Then get the upper saver piece when it's convenient.

I'll go with the KingHeadz Set as they also accomidate the larger Bearings and thats what I was really looking for...

i machined mine front and rear and they are holding up quiet well!
I have been using the King Headz rear hub carriers for over a year, there strong and hold up well. I had to replace 1 bearing since I have been using them. The reason for the replacement, Silverstate Race, Las Vegas Nevada, need I say more. The capital bearing killer in the USA.

you should post a few before and after pics I would be interested to see..
I have an emergency question for a race tomorow! Other than the tires, what suspension and setup wise can I change on my kit to help with a track that is REALLY hard packed clay, practically like smooth cement! Never tackled this track type before, and need some advice. So, other than tires, (not an option right now) how can I change my suspension to help with a really slick cement-like suspension!? Looking for some more turning traction mostly. Thanks, anyone!!

Unless I read his post wrong, he said it's slick. Go heavier on a lot of that stuff is not going to help his traction. Normally, for high traction, I would agree with you, but I am under the impression it's not high traction.
Tech Adept
having heavier front oil will put more weight on the front tyres under breaking giving it more traction... correct??

just my opinion and whats worked for me!

Negative on that one. Thicker oil will harden the dampening. Same as to going to less holes or smaller holes in the pistons. This will decrease steering under low grip situations. Google the hudy offroad setup book for further explanation.
I notice that one of the rear wheels on my 8t has a pretty severe wobble to it. I thought initially it would be a wheel balance issue. But the wobble is present even when spinning the wheel by hand.
Any ideas what to check?
