Since these are 8 hole pistons, would you have to run significantly heavier oil than with the stock pistons?

Default 5/64 axle drive pins for the SCT E



got my new sct E truck and the first thing I did was to change the tires.
Well, pulled the wheel off and the Hex stuck in the hub.
Of course I didn't pay any attention to the pins so when I go to put the new tires on guess what. No pin in the axle.
And perhaps they are somewhere on losi"s site, but I couldn't find them with our buying the drive axle. I have heard that this is a problem with this item not being sold seperately.
These pins are hardened dowel pins and should outlast the truck.
note: I haven't checked but these pins will probably fit about all the core trucks.
These will be packed in pks of 4.
part no m2c7120

Good news for all of you though.....Denial is the first step to recovery!!
Just wondering what all did you do to your truck to make it as light as possible. could you take some pics of your truck?
Have mine all torn down now have some things on order just wondering what all I need.
Thanks for any help.

Here are the basics and it is pretty light after this:

Lightened HD outdrives
Carbon Fiber towers.
Lightened Chassis (BCE, Losi, Bump, etc..)
540 4poles
Cut off the plastic handles on side
Cut the rear bumper sides off
Losi aluminum hinge pin holders

I have done this and my truck feels pretty dang light! Also get rid radio tray, cut the battery tray. A few other things but these are the major things to do.

No, we made the hole smaller to accomidate for more shock holes
We settled on 27.5 losi for our tracks which is close to the stock 30 wt.
