I think i'm right is saying that the chassis is drilled to accept a split FR blocks, but the Exotek kit reflects the block set up that the X-Ray kit comes with.
You can buy a second set of split blocks seperately, plus an A block, an E block and the spacers - good price too!

Mike/Fred - question about the roll center of the suspension mounts. Without any spacers under the blocks, how does the hingepin height compare to the Xray kit suspension mounts with the dot in the center? Do you have to add the 1mil spacers to have the same roll center?
#2078
I'm not familiar with these style block since I've only ever run an xray, so my question is, how would you go about lowering the blocks if needed? Are there different height blocks?

On the Tamiya blocks, you can flip them over (like the F/R) and 3mm of shims would make them the same as flat when they're flipped the other way. Less than 3mm and you're going lower than flat. Not sure if Exotek works the same.

I'd like to pull the trigger on this but I can't see the benifits of the the blocks. I think I have more ajustability just by shimming the kit blocks as necessary. As far as the hinge pin friction, imo if you shim the pins properly that doesn't mean a thing.
However I think the chassis looks good.
I'd like to see Exotek come up with their version of the cantilevered servo mount.

hey there, i have some problem here, before this, my gear-diff runs smoothly, and no leaking case, but somehow after changing the oil, the oil leak out, i try change with new o-ring but the case still happen, any solution? do i need new gasket?
#2083
I don't replace the gaskets, just the o-ring.
Some have suggested that using a 2nd gasket and no ring or even one gasket without the o-ring might work.

I agree that the O-ring is not needed.
What you should do is coat the mating faces of the diff cases with a thin smear of thick grease, add the gasket and screw up as normal.
I've built three this way with 700 cst oil, never a leak.
Also be sure not to over tighten the screws.
