Does any1 know if the RCSHOX Slipper Pads???,
Should be run Outer & inner??, OR Outer and HT pad inner??

I am running the RCSHOX slipperpads, and run them inner and outer. When you buy them you should get two of them.

The new RS has the 12mm hubs right? That means any of the Traxxas Slash or Slash 4x4 premounts will work. I know Proline makes a ton of them.

But that will be the wrong off-set. The tires will stick out way past the limit of ROAR legal.

---------------------
Edit:
Pro-line "ProTrac 12mm hex" wheels will work.

Here's a choice for Pre-mount:
Pro-Line Caliber 2.0 Pre-Mounted M3 SC w/"ProTrac" Renegade Wheels (Black)

You have to make sure you use protrac wheels. The sc10 4x4 should fit

Anybody know of a list of rims along with their respective actual offsets? Not just "slash rear" or "0 offset".

BlueGlowBoy 09-09-2011 09:22 AM

Heh, good luck with that. Some companies even measure the offset differently, so unless some group of people decide to measure all of the wheels on the same truck to get their relative offsets, all measured the exact same way, you'll never see what you want.

Also, I am curious when this thread changed into a thread about the 2wd trucks. I came looking for updated info on the 4wd and had to read a ton of irrellevant information....

Nitrohouse lists the offset of all the rims they sell for shortcourse trucks.

Thanks! Unfortunately they don't have xxx SCT/B rims. I've heard they are a couple mm wider than the stock rims (ala jconcepts havoc rims) but can't get anyone to confirm short of "yeah, I threw em on my truck and they seemed to fit."

Guess I'll have to spend the $8 and find out myself. lol

I'm glad someone actually did go to this effort...now all you have to do is find the stock wheels for your truck, then match the "backspace" (as they like to call it) or if you want to go 1-2mm wider, you can find a rim with less backspace, or if you want to go 1-2mm more narrow (to fit under a different body, I guess) you could use a rim with more backspace...

Keeping this related to the SC104x4, the stock wheels apparently have a backspacing of 32mm.... with the truck already being 293mm wide (according to RC10.com), and ROAR (and therefore any track/event that would actually tech width) limits you to 296mm, there isn't any wheel that you can run right at the legal limit with. (Jconcepts Hazards are not listed yet.)

If you want to go WAY wider than the legal limits, and probably help your truck feel more planted around the corners, there are wheels with 22mm backspacing, which would make the truck 313mm wide! Just bear in mind that will put the tire partway outside the fender, and landing off a big jump, you run the risk of cutting your tire with your body....

any tips on diff rebuilds? geara are fine just swaping oils finally ,goimg 7k im rear and 30k im front. is there no seal between the cases? and how much oil do you put in? did a full tear down finally, had a broken middle chassis piece and replacing rear sagging arms. other than that truck has been solid and have beat it up pretty good for 2 months.

Indeed! I was pretty shocked when I saw that! Also they've only shown front arms...where's the rears?

I am curious. after how many runs do you guys give this truck new diff cases?

couse they do tend to wear out pretty fast and the result is wobbely outdrives

all the internals do not have any sign of wear on them . just the litte brass like metal hole in the diff cases. it seems that the material they choose is to soft

I measured a set of DE xxx sct wheels... 2mm more than stock, per wheel. That gives you 4mm more overall width.
