I tried the RPM bumper when i first got the sc10 and it was a good feeling having it on.I just felt it was to big and bulky and i would clip corners because it comes out to far.
As far as the chassis brace goes, you dont really need it. When the SC10 first came out they were weak and brittle, but eversince that they have made them stronger. I have never broken a chassis. One guy at my track did, but he drove his car full speed up a ramp right into a steel poll with no body on.

I dont know if this has been disscussed here yet but just to let you guys know RPM released a rear bumper for the SC10

Quick question for you guys. Is anyone running the MIP Ball Diff for the Sc10? I want to completly rebuild my diff rings, balls, outdrives, etc and by time I buy all those peices its cheaper to just buy the MIP ball diff. Any difference between the MIP diff and stock? How are the diff balls that come with the MIP ball diff?

I only use MIP outdrives and can say they are much stronger then the AE ones. But I use carbide diff balls with ceramic thrust balls with al AE parts.

I have RPM front bumper and it hit the lip of steep jumps and some landings. I actually endo'd on the face of a jump because it sticks so far out.
I'm looking for alternatives!

I thought about running just the smaller section of the rpm. But worried the front will stick like a buggy lol.

+1, I agree this is the way to go :nod: This setup yields the smoothest ball diff I've ever ran. I only need to rebuild it about once every 1-2 months... and I could probably let it go a bit longer then that, I'm veryyy particular with my stuff :D

U using bleeder caps? I've used the Al caps without the bleeder and it's hard to get all of the rebound out without getting air inside. Either air or a little rebound could cause extra pressure and cause them to leak.

Yea I didn't like the RPM bumper, puts all the stress on the bottom under the hinge plate and it wore out my screw mounts into the top plate pretty quick. (as in one race day) I'm switching over to the T-bone front and rear bumpers. I like the way the t-bone rear doesn't let the body overhang and get all tore up.

What are you guys doing to the outdrives? If built properly and not abused, the Factory Team parts perform very well.

Yeah mine show no wear at all

My diff's are built perfect. They also perform quite well.!!! I run a bit tight and its smooth. The out drives get worn where the cvd / cva are. My AE ones were so sloppy and worn that I had slivers of metal coming off.
I race once a week and practice once a week. I race only and don't bash my truck at all. I also rebuild my shocks every one to two weeks.

My bad, I wasn't talking about the outdrive part. I just use the stock AE ones and haven't had a problem with them. I was talking about the diff/thrust ball setup ;)

Out running the SC10s on our newly built(still under construction) track.

+ YouTube Video

I would go to that track fo the scenery alone.

Maybe one of you guys who are really into setups can check this video and help me with something .. seems like no matter how I land I get a good bounce definitely in the rear. Maybe it need to jump on the power sooner? Or something with the setup?
Its red / grey 32.5/32.5 , arms level/bones level. I have 3oz in the back I was thinking about pulling. I start 2nd here.. black nose blue stars.
