Protrac Beadlocks from Pro-Line have been announced.

I had to adjust my stop points on my steering, when I turned left it would actually lift my left tire up off the ground

Just a note from AE about the drive belt:


I took my truck down to inspect everything after racing it and noticed the
belt was riding against the right side (passanger side) of the pully's. The
belt is fraying the cords a little bit on the right side from rubbing the pully.

Don at AE says it is normal and not to worry about it on the SC10 4x4.

So I figured I'd just give everyone a heads up about this.

Enjoy"

The first page only states that HPI and Traxxas wheel nuts can be used, not the part number. I did however figure out the wheel nuts from the Slash will work.

That's a special tuning feature AE forgot to announce. You would pay thousands for auto leveling sport suspension on a 1:1, AE tossed that in for free. :lol:

And thats why I love AE rc's :D hence my sig lol......

Can't wait to finally get to take my 4x4 to the track this weekend, have had this badboy ready for weeks, but due to work I haven't been able to, man I need to win the lotto so I can race and bash every day lol......

I noticed the rubbing too, no belt damage for me though...yet, mine rubs more on the tensioner than it does the front pulley. Not a huge deal I guess but it would be nice piece of mind if it centered better, IMO

Hey guys was hoping someone could tell me what part of the sevo assembly neede to have loctite in it...It was mentioned b/f, I beleive, that there was a screw on the steering assembly that needed it..Besides that and the screw on the shock shaft that need it, what are other parts of the build also not mentioned in the manual, that needed some thread lock??
I think someone also mentioned to put black grease on a part on the steering assembly??Is that necessary??Should i put black grease on any other parts not mentioned in the manual??
I run on a mostly a loose and large 1/8 type track..Would the 19t pulley be a better idea for these conditions than the 20t??I'm running also the stock gear diff with the supplied 3000wt in both front and rear just to give it a feel..One diff was slightly lower than the other but not all bad...At least, not nearly as bad as some that had none in there diff''s whatsoever..Well i filled the slightly lower one with some extra 3000wt I had laying around..I have now moved to the suspension assembly and was just wondering if there were somethings I could come back and perfect b/f i move forward..:nod:

Got my servo in yesterday got a mystery check for $300 not one of the 6 local hobby shops near me has any 4.5 550 motors or comparable esc's guess I'm going to have to order one and wait ugh its killing me

Grease the front clicker to quiet it down. They say to put some on the 2 halfs of the servo saver but personaly I don't do it, on any of my cars. B4.1 and my SC10's have glued servo savers, this is not for everyone, not gonna do that on this truck and it's pretty tight as is.

I put my truck together by hand, no power tools. I used a little BG on the threads of all the screws going into plastic parts and it helped them thread in easier, chap stick or something else would work as well or better but it's what I had. I would caution using power tools only because of the fine threads on the metric hardware..IMO

Not saying you can't use power tools, just be careful. I personaly like to "feel" when they are tight, but that's me.

I just checked my truck an it doesn't have any rubbing at all... matter a fact I have 1mm between the arm an spindle both left and right side at full lock. Are you running your shock in the inside or outside hole on the arms? Also do you have the ballstud on the shock tower in the inside or outside hole with the stock camber link lenght?

I'm gonna wait till after my garage sale this weekend to assemble my truck. I should have plenty of money get the right servo. :nod:

Those money trees I planted haven't sprout anything yet. :mad:

Who has the most packs through their truck? What does the long term durability look like for this thing?

I am one who loves to go to practice and slam down pack after pack. I know things should cool, and I do wait a little between runs. I take good care of my stuff I just like to run like crazy. I had a hyper 10sc that I ran alot and gave me little problems in the durability department (just handled like crap on the track). I will be running mine in a few days. Sold that hyper months ago in anticipation of this sc10. The rx8 and sc4x should be here today in the mail...cant wait!

Whats the fix on the leeaking shocks?Anybody else have that issue?Three out of the four shocks were leaking..I am getting to the thread loc on the screw for the shock shaft..Any help on this and my previous post would be much appreciated!:)

Hey Jeff, that are you looking to spend on a servo? I have a few laying around I don't use... a Hitec 965MG and Savox 1257TG. :tire:
