I think that the 38 tooth conversion simply makes the on and off power handling smoother and more consistant. I would recommend it!

I find these to be the best thrusts. They never wear out unless for some reason the rings get chipped. http://www.mcmaster.com/#7806k53/=40kxsq

For me the corally 2.4mm ceramic diff balls last the longest and grip the rings the best. I sand my rings with 1000 sandpaper and some oil. The rings were a mirror finish, and I used AE silicone lube. Like Paul said in his artice put lube in everyother hole on the pulley. As long as you dont get any grease on the outdrives where the ring rubs, the diff is locked with the least amount of pressure and is super free/smooth.

Also try Axiom racing. They have awesome ceramic thrust and diff balls. Unbelievably smooth!

Does anyone know what inside pulley you are supposed to use with the 38 tooth to get the 1.9 trans 16 or 20

Hard to say without knowing the rest of your setup but more rear toe in or standing your rear shocks up generally helps with this sort of problem.

Can any one tell me if the plastic kit shocks with 3 hole piston is the same size holes in piston as the 3 hole piston that comes with alum shocks?


also if it is different will the pistons that come with alum shocks fit the plastic shocks?

Default Steering slop/play on the T2 009

I have noticed a quite alot of play in the steering of my 009, Mostly this is where the front upper camber link joins the c hub. I can wiggle it around and see the top screw that joins the camber link to the c hub moving. Has any one used the new XRay 302661 5mm closed ball ?? did they cut out the slop. Does any one have any tips to get rid of slop/play

It sounds like you are missing the little gromit that goes in both the top and bottom of the Chub. Check your instruction manual, and rebuild the Chub assembly and I bet you find something is missing or built incorrectly.
