I posted what I did on MactheKnife's for sale thread - http://www.rctech.net/forum/r-c-item...ml#post9392323

Worked like a champ and was done with household stuff.

ok guys I have another question . I though I had a loose belt issue so I checked it all out and found the pulleys were wobbly on the bearings and the belt seemed a bit loose so I bought new pulleys and bearings and belt and low an behold its not the belt . I just serviced the diffs last week cleaned em out put new fluid in them and reassembled them the main reason I serviced them was because I thought the noise I heard was a bad tranny gear or something and once I looked at the gears in the front and rear everything looked really good I figured it just has to be the belt well I think I was wrong because if I hold one of the back wheels and goose the throttle it makes a crunching sound from what I believe to be is the rear diff . My question is have any of you had any tranny or diff issues with your truck ? Im alittle upset im going to have to pull the whole back of the truck apart again .lol. I spoke with Chris at AE and he says its probably the idler gear which I wont argue with it just seems like its the diff to me what do you gurus think i value the opinions of you guys and any tid bit of info always helps . thanks

Wowzies BLV!

That is a total of 7.6Ah, 7.4V? Or 3.8Ah 7.4V?

I'm very interested on doing this kind of setup, because I refuse to add ballasts to the car, I'd rather use this weight on adding batteries, or useful stuff like that.

I'd rather not adding weight though
