I have been running the 4wd 13mm shocks on my 2wd for a few months, and finally got them dialed. The rears are the same length. The fronts need to run the Xtreme racing carbon shock tower for the GT2 gas truck. Use all thr 4wd parts to complete. The rear shocks need to be mounted on the front of the tower to avoid the binding with the camber link. Use some spacers and a long screw to mount to the arm. These shocks work really well. The 4wd weighs just under a pound more than the 2wd, so if you run on an out door track that gets blown out, this is for you....... Chuck

ill be honest. i cant keep up with this mental thread. the forum really needs a "go to last read message" button, because i have no flaming idea where my post was, and this all goes way too fast. since my question, which was somewhere around late 500s i think, we are now up to 720.
anyways, ive forgotten what i said/asked because it was like a week ago, and i never saw the answer.
oh, yes. thats right. gotta pull the sc10 apart to check it out.
I think ill do that now.

Just played around and ended up doing my sc10. Ill say I prefer 6 9vstation and about 6seconds over 7 9v. 7 makes them look tarnish ..6 leaves some yellow for gold.

Ive been working on my bikes today- cleaning and regreasing bearings, and making sure external parts are oiled up.
Its night time now so i might get to trying to find out whats wrong with my car.
Ive been told by a few people to pull it apart which im hoping to do in a minute just as long as princess fiona (aka dad) doesnt go apeshit about pulling it apart.
(he thinks im incapable of unscrewing a few screws, even though ive done it a million times to my other cars)
I will post pics of what i find, i might not get round to that until tomorow, which will be monday, and thats a tough day for me (at school and tafe for 12 hours)
so it might even be tuesday. ill try to do it tonight but other things may arise.

lets see if i can embed pictures..

All the way forward
I have my ESC mounted inside the battery tray all the way in the rear. Running stock front tires with Duratrax inserts, Duratrax Shotgun tires in the rear. Lower the body until it starts to rub, and cut holes in the rear for better airflow.

Just wanted all the SC10 fans out there know that the new DE Racing wide offset wheels for the SC10 RS and 4x4 are now available at www.amainhobbies.com and www.deracing.net. These wheels feature an improved +3mm offset per side to make the truck wider and more stable while still maintaining a ROAR legal width for 2wd and 4wd.

These are alot like the popular JC hazard only with DE Racing style and made in USA quality.
