Im more looking to run this buggy with my son so were not looking for alot of speed more looking for a set up that we can have some fun with...Will be using on a dirt track and on the street around the house or at local school. Part numbers would be great.

PLS HELP.

Thanks

Ok since no one seems to be able to help with this question, The next one is does it matter what slipper pad im using? Are the diff ones used for different running types? Ex.. should i be using a different one for bashing then im using for racing? If so can anyone point me to where i can find this info..

Thanks

Pusihin,on power

Hey all,

tried searching threads and found a few.... I just built a B4.1 worlds. I installed a LRP ESC and a 17.5 Rev Tech. I am pushing like crazy (on power, off power it will turn) I have a small amount of toe in, but dont think its too much. I have read that it may be that the diff is too tight. Any help, and how would i loosen ball diff if it is too stiff?

thanks
A.T.

Those are the regular shocks with aluminum caps on them
Edit: Maybe not, the caps look like they are two different colors.

So is what I do is push the motor all the way against the spur. Then I pull it back just a tiny bit. Hold the pinion and make sure the spur wiggles ever so slightly. I check the wiggle at 4 different spots on the spur as they are not always perfect. As long as it wiggles in seems to work for me.

Sorry that may not help ;-)

2 ways you can do this that are super easy. Take a pinion 1 size larger and put on motor and tighten motor so pinion is tight meaning no wiggle, then install pinion you want on. should give you exact play wanted or take a piece of notebook paper, make it roll it between the spur and pinion tighten motor and remove the paper. Both methods work and will give u the idea of what correct mesh is,
