Look at what the chassis plate costs here and at Mushroom. The normal price in Europe is 70 Euro (US$ 85+) and I believe at Mushroom you got it for $40!
Look at the new arrivals at Mushroom, the Serpent ceramic bearings. I don't even want to know what these cost here in Europe!
1380 5x13 (2) $23.31USD

With the cost of those bearings you probably could buy 2 sets of the Acer ceramic bearings.

You need:
8x 10x15 = 4x 31.33 = 125.32 (wheelaxles)
4x 12x18 = 2x 31.33 = 62.66 (diff eccenters)
5x 6x13 = 3x 23.31 = 69.93 (2speed+2speedshaft+midshaft+1 "spare")
1x 6x10 (flanged) = 25.06 (2speed+1 "spare")
Total: $282.97
Not including 5x10 (2) and 5x10 thrust for clutch, 7x14 and 6x14 thrust for diff.

Hi Mark,
Thanks!
Front: yes the alu is more stabile so the small M3 insex screws works better then they touch the alu levers instead of the more flexible parts.
Rear: I drilled the holes to 3.3mm and replaced the standart M3 insex with a M4. Works nice I think!
Cheers!

PS. I will check in here now and then....

When you adjust the drag brake do you not only adjust it from the brake linkage screw but on your transmitter as well? Incase it starts to fade I was hoping you can adjust it using your tx? Is it possible without interfering with your carb settings?

Or there's still too much dirt that the Photoshop filter cannot get rid off.

I guess you could adjust the brake fade on the EPA a tad or two. The throttle side would have the spring there in the linkage and that extra movement would be absorbed a little by the spring. But not too much as this will strain the servo.

This is with personal transponder? So what do you do to add weight to make it legal?Also, in the LRP Masters open, Michael and Julius used a bar like thing stuck onto the rear shock tower to avoid the body shell from being compressed during pitstop. Do you have a clearer pic of that? What parts are needed for that? Does it really work? Thanks.

When using oneway front, I read that the best combo is the 9607 brake pads and the 9606 vented brake disc because it does not grab too hard. What about when just using solid front axle or front ball diff? Stock brake pads with 9606 vented brake disc?

Another tips (I have used it the last weeks) is to use a longer inner pin in the rear driveshafts (11.7mm instead of 9.7mm) as this decreases the wear of the rear diff steelparts. These pins was used in the S-705 and Impact differentials and seems to work, make sure they are perfectly centered though.

I think one of us here (Proficar403) mentioned that he was already changing them out with longer pins.Anyway, just curious. Are the pins on the 705 rear dogbone (dogbone black in colour) the same quality as the pins in the Impact rear dogbone (dogbone Hudy brown in colour)?
