I swapped out the rear plastic camber block for the alum one last night....but I was going to weight them and get an idea of the difference. But i forgot. anyone know the weights? or at least the weight of the alum one? I can weight the plastic when I get home.


Also, the Ti ball studs seemed very tight going in. that normal? I thought maybe I was cross threading it, bit I dont think that is the case. I am using the losi 3x10mm length studs.

general rule is all TLR aluminum pieces weigh 7 grams more than their plastic counterpart

It is a XXX4. Wish they would give us a new wheeler!!! Unless of course you mean the one on the left at the bottom... looks like a back-up 22.
