Well I just installed Tekin pro rs and the truck has the punch and speed of the other trucks, and ordered a battery, hope it gets here before Saturday, O, I have problems with the steering servo shutting off my reciever with the tekin esc, I have a cap ordered too.

OK guys, last night I rebuilt the shocks with 40/35 AE oil. #3 pistons and #1 pistons are still in the shocks as they have been. I have red springs sup front and green in the rear.
I also drilled an extra hole inside of the last available stock hole on the shock tower. I put 3 oz of weight under the rear shock tower behind the battery.

I have the 3.5 degree rear toe block in the truck with the .5 degree FT blue anodized hubs. I appreciate all the info on how to tighten the truck up.

Thanks

can you take a picture of where you drilled a hole? What.conditions are you running in?

Is there a difference between the Associated and the MIP ball diffs? Going to upgrade to one and want to get the best and most durable one available. If there is one better, let me know please.

Everything shoulds great. Let us know how it runs. I am using the same except I have 1 deg hubs. You should see a lot of improvements with this set-up!

In ThunderbirdJunkie's prior experience with MIP and Associated diff parts, the Associated stuff is better. Granted this is decade-old information, and with Associated now manufacturing overseas rather than in the US, and the build quality of the rest of their parts not being what they were 10 years ago, MIP may be the way to go.

anyone know with running the sc10 hex adapters up front what wheels you can run besides the pro trac wheels and keep the same width as stocl.

I've been running the mip diff and cvd's in my truck for a little over a year now, and haven't had any issues at all. Couple of the guys at my track are running ft trucks with ball diffs and no issues yet either. I reckon you can't really go wrong with either.

You might want to try going with 35wt front and 30 wt rear, but drive it as is and see if you like it first.

hey guys. just picked up a sc10. was wondering what u guys thought of a mamba max pro esc w/ either team epic d3 or tekin motor? im running on a medium size track..

Will it be insane to run SC10 with mamba max pro sc system?

CC website recommend this for 4WD and not 2WD, probably because it's too powerful for 2WD?

Please comment cause I would really love to have so much power in my SC10 but do not want to end up regretting buying it cause it's totally unusable.

Thanks.

What battery are you going to run? That will make the biggest difference..

I just ripped out the CVA's out of my FTSC10. Stupid pins kept popping out and knocking off my tie rod ends. That metal band that slips over the pin kept rotating allowing the pin to come out.

Have you guys found any fix for that? I put the old dogbone setup off my other SC10 on for now. What a giant p.i.t.a. it was.

Running a 3800 kv Castle motor with 20/87 and have it dialed back some for 2wd mod, very fun. :nod:

The guys I've seen running bigger motors on the ball diffs are burning the ball diffs up.

I like the ball diff cause it makes the rear rotate around better but I have a problem getting the truck to square up for straight line speed, it seems one tire is spinning faster than the other fighting for traction

when I had the gear diff the car would def straighten out better and square up once I punched it.

guess i'm still getting used to the ball diff.

Yes rotate the clip away from the hole and use a small drop of super glue.
