Thats the plan, we'll see how it turns out this time.

For the rear you can try the plates I would suggest using shoe-glue since the chasis is worn I would go with the older version not the new version since your chasis is worn they tend to bend easier since your chassis isnt true. Normal the tail wears the most making it hard too fasten since the front side is thicker.

let us know how it goes.....should work just fine....i only use blue on those screw's..imo there's no need for red in this application.

buy new pinion's and drill and tap for a set screw....its how i did mine.....what motor's are you using ?

Integra what motors do you use in your box?I have alot of old motors(stock,19 or mod)

most anything will work....im actually Still running some Integy Crawler motor's that have been working for quite some time now.......they do turn on the slower side but i cant say they have ever hindered the ability to start a motor.

i also did run the stock motor's for over a year on lipo till one eventually let go and i swapped for the integy's.

Also I do run lipo which is definitely a factor in how much power your motor's will get....imo gel cells suck and so do nimh stick packs....with the price of lipo's now a days its a lot more common then it was a couple years ago....No need for any Regulator's or any Low voltage cut off's when you can get a 5000mah 4 cell for under 50$...you cant go wrong.

Yea I use two 2 cell packs and just burnt up my second set of stock motors trying to break in a new motor that is very tight.I just ordered those pinion gears so thanks for your help.Lee

Hi guys has anybody tred running the 8 2.0 flywheel?

I am interested because I'm setting up a spare motor for my 8T 2.0 and 8B 1.0.

I would like some feedback before I try it

The flywheels are the same thing. Just a different part number. It doesn't matter which one you order.

ding_nz

Thanks I wasn't sure because of the part number thing and thought there may be some small difference between them

I run the 2.0 smartdiff in my 1.0 center diff. Makes the world of difference.

Can you describe the world of difference? What sort of changes are you seeing, under what sort of driving conditions? I like the company descriptions, but I have never seen the product in use with a good before/after basis of comparison.

Seeing as you are using the center smartdiff, I would be particularly interested to know how it affects braking and acceleration, as well as turn in and cornering in general as you roll on and off the throttle. And anything else you would care to comment on as well!

Thanks in advance,
Spiro

i had the same problem heres what you do.THIS WILL WORK. first set your droop measure 96mm for front shocks and 106mm for rear measure from top shock mount screw to bottom arm set screw. REAM the hole in the piston out so your screw can turn easily through the piston to the shock shaft.what happens is the screw is tight to the piston and that the piston turns it back out as it goes up and down. blue lock tight works just make shure you put it in the shaft and not the screw or it will come off when you tighten it down.
hope this helps.IT WORKED FOR ME
