Wow... completely different than what I would have thought. Thanks Frank !

I'm sure if you get creative with the cutting, anything can truly fit.

It has more to do with laziness. I don't feel like painting the body so I thought i might just get one of those 'skins' for the xxx-cr body.

upgrade-rc.com usually has skins pretty quickly after a car comes out. Maybe give them a shout.

That's exactly where I went! I got the idea from their site. Under the 1/10 buggy, the only option I saw was the XXX-CR

Honest guess is...usually people think making things more complicated will solve their problems

Some of the stock balls have been known to be poor quality and or slightly different sizes. People who have problems with them and then switch to new ones (AE or BFAST) have solved their problem.

I just finished wiring up and installing my electronics. It was quite a challenge, but everything is nice and neat now. I will post pics once my body comes in. I did notice that the tranny is super quiet and very free. Good job losi!

B Fast is known for quality diff components.. when thats all you focus on the product tends to be darn good and after talking to my friends its the only stuff to buy if you have to pay for your gear

the stock balls will work though they seem to be varrying tolerances coming in the kits but if you want a great diff spend the money and get the good stuff

it doesnt have to be the b fast stuff theyre just a nice company to package it all together in a kit and sell it for a good price
