I am running carbides in my diff and ceramics in my thrust currently. I have ran a bunch of combinations in my FT's ball diff, and this is certainly the smoothest and best setup yet. I read a post where a worker of B-FAST stated that this was the best way to setup your ball diff., and it truly is!

will try soon, i got the kit for all my cars lol lol lol lol

And that might be the issue right there. Stopping by HT tonight on me way home and will look to grab the right set of wheels and tires. Shoulda known I would make this mistake. LOL. Now what happens if I run the Hazzard +3MM wheels?

I run the jconcepts hexes and Hazard wheels and the wheels right at the edge but not sticking out. Kinda perfect, I think.

Aiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Sounds good to me. Looks like I got the wrong wheels. D'oh.:blush: Oh well... I'll pick the right ones up today. Thanks for the help guys.

MY NAME IS LAKE... AND I AM AN ADDICT! :lol:

So, I just realized, I have an addiction to my R/C car. I am always quite busy and only get to go to offroad practice at my local track on Tuesdays from 4-9. Well, we had a huge oval event at the track last week, so they didn't have practice all last week so they could set up the oval. Majorly bummed, I was patient and waited till today. Packed up all my stuff, drove to the track... to find out it is still setup for oval and won't be switched back until sometime next week :cry: Now, I'm depressed and realized I'm addicted :D

Real men turn left and right

Well your safe. A real addict would be in the car driving 4 hours to find another track. A true addict will get their drug at any cost

heh.. glad I read that. I was contimplating driving 5 1/2 hours to RCE for their SC race and I don't even run SC yet

My feelings EXACTLY Brent! :nod:

I am scared to see what my total investment is at this moment. I have boxes at my door step everyday. Addictions is an understatement...

Lol, I'm only up to one weekly order so far...

I was going to stick with the gear diff at first since I already had an assortment of oils to tune with, but mine kept leaking after a brand new build, and I had thought I wore out a gear (but ended up being something else) and picked up the ball diff so I could get up and running by the weekend.

anyone have any preliminary suggestions on a Grinding in the Tranny>Slipper Setup? When I take off the cover it doesn't echo as bad but it sounds like something's grinding up against something every rotation.

- It did this with the Ball Diff and the Gear Diff
- And with the old Tranny case, and the new Tranny Case.
- Checked Spur and Pinion, perfect, pads, plates, fine.
- The only thing I see is the Topshaft is wobbling a bit. But it goes into the tranny smoothly.
- All bearings are solid and free spinning.

It's odd to me. It drives great, It's not causing any drag either. Only an extremely obnoxious "broke" noise.

Can you take a quick video so we can hear the noise. Check the motor plate screws, if one is too long it could rub the slipper...
