I'm actually suprised that they didn't originally make the mounts like this...with the ends open so you could just slide the motor in. I guess it could get tweaked if it was that way.

I just ran my pro 4 for the first time. and I can say I dont care too much for the one way. I have a reedy ti 10x3 for a motor and couldnt even come close to putting the power down and stay under control. I ran it with the setup from the manual on dusty asphalt. it was slip and slide everywhere.
after a couple minutes it got real twitchy and I thought it was just me, but the servo saver was loose allowing play in the steering. got that sorted out but any suggestions to help with putting the breaks on and not throwing the rear end around?
I do have an lrp 7.1 so I can adjust the break to be a little softer.

You might like it better with a front diff on the dusty track or maybe use a spool in the front so you can get most of the advantages of the one way but have brakes

You can change the EXP so when you are close to neutral, steering input is very little and you get alot of high end control...
Anyways,
I found some springs.
Can anyone let me know if they are any good?
They certainly look shorter

Dual springs set ups but I dunno where to get the middle part

any recommendations for a front diff?
or just go with the same as in the rear.

thanks.. I will go with the regular diff then.
unfortunately there are no tracks around here for about a hundred miles, so I'm banished to parking lot racing..
its a shame to have such a sweet tc and not have a place to really run it.
I'd love to try it out on carpet.
