4mm / 5.5mm combo will do everything that i have changed , but why not just use the black plastic one that come with the truck ?

inserts are fine. i tired it with no shims but it still felt like the mesh was a little to tight. i put my stockers back in for now ill wait to try it again when the front/rears come in. i do need to reem that plastic. i kept switching outdrives and now they both have a silver ring on them lol

All you really need is a 4mm, the losi 3 in 1 is really for guys who have buggy and truggy needing both 4 and 5mm, The 3.5mm is for the Steering link and is Very rarely needed.

can someone post up a picture of a MMP mounted in the truck, I just got my scte today in the mail I dropped in my MMP but i really couldnt find a good way to mount it...

I also ran the ESC wire's that go to the receiver under the drive shaft and motor is that way or the way next to the battery first.

Also is everyones truck noisey as hell with the metal spur and pinion???
I guess im so use to my quite E-Firestorm and this thing sounds like a train

Very good point, I still have my stock cvds and driveshafts from a first gen truck, I have rebuilt them a few times... I use a good chain lube on a regular basis. I honestly am leaning more towards negligence with multiple failures, metal on metal at a high rpm is never good.

well its not plastic so i called it metal, but whats it really made out of steal?

I don't have many 32p pinions so I'm going to try the few that I do have, 13t, 18t , 19t and see what works best.


Also how do you adjust the droop on these trucks??

- Ive only ever adjusted ride height and shock mounting location.
