Sorry no pictures because I don't know how to post pictures even if I took
some.

Sway bars are a piece of cake on the SC10 4x4 took about 15 minutes to do
the rear and about 10 minutes to do the front.

If you PM me your phone # I can tell you exactly how to do it if ya like?

Sorry to hard to type info. easy to build though...LOL"

Here is an old 7.5 HV I''m going to try out in my SC10. Just wanted to show how it fits in case anyone had one.

What is a good driver to use. I was looking at the white 1/4 hex driver from makita.

I have all Losi wrenches now.

Has anyone tried the overdrive pulley gear on the front? I run on a fairly big outdoor 1/8 track and tends to get pretty loose when it dries up. I was wondering if running the overdrive gear would help on accelerting to keep the truck straight? Thanks for any ideas.

I did them by hand, it wasn't bad. The drill would have been a nice luxury for the build.

Now I have to tear into the truck, a drill seems like a nice option.

I am running a sc4x and a mamba max pro 12 pinion after running 13 minutes on 1/8 outdoor track motor was 110 and esc was 90. Granted it was a windy day and outside temp was 55-60. I may try a 13 pinion but I really dont think I need anymore topend speed.

Is anybody running the Savox 1258? Is it enough servo? how do you like it? I'm thinking of getting this vs the ds1015.

input is appreciated.
