You have to use a new ballstud for the jconcepts cups. I think the TC6 ballstuds are what most are using.


ON another note I raced my second 210 on saturday. On my first pack I ran into a marshall walking down the front straight. My chassis was severly tweaked and I had to get medieval on it with channel locks and a vise. The good news is not one of the ballcups popped off from normal abuse. I did pop one of the steering links after hitting a wall jumping a 24 foot double.

BTW,

If anyone needs to replace the thrust bearing assembly when rebuilding your diff, the Losi HD thrust kit fits perfect; it's also slightly thicker when assembled and this helps to fill the gap between the top race and the clip slot.

I went with RPM ends and used ball studs from my Associated TC5 black short outter and silver long inner for the rear.
I herd to wait for the new rear camber link mount to come out because they are breaking the current ones.
I would like to go with the aluminum one if I can find something the weight may help some.

I think this was the one. Pretty sure it was in a TLR package though.
