4 screws ? I mean the 2 long at the bottom of the front diff housing.
I can see how they adjust gear mesh. At least when the housing isn't attached to the chassis . Aren't the housing just squeezed together when I fasten it to the chassis? I believe that 2 screws each that goes through the chassis goes into each part of the housing. Sry for stupid sentences. English isn't my mother tounge :) |

For the sake of two measley screws, you're better off just dealing with them. If you didn't need the screw there, Serpent wouldn't have included them. Besides which, a few seconds of undoing screws each time is worth it considering the damage you could do.
Stuff can be over engineered some times and I think that I could save a lot of seconds by not having to detach the whole front of the car. But I get the point, I will keep the screws and pay attention to my gear mesh. Maybe I could drill a bit and use long suspension mount screws (like in the rear) to keep the mesh |
Got a buddy getting this car, and he wanted to ask what would be the best diff and shock setup for a loose outdoor track? Also if he needs to order any option parts to facilitate this, Steering rack #2? springs?
Or should he try the box stock setup first and go from there? Thanks guys. |

Personally, I will run it stock so I know what I'm dealing with before making changes. Then again, my LHS is a 5 min walk away, and stocks a fair bit of serpent option parts, so I guess its easy for me to say when I dont have to wait for parts.
I meant to say whats 300 in losi oil |

Maybe warn him to have some on standby just in case, but I wouldnt say its necessary to change from the get go. |

One more question, hes running a tekin 1900kv combo on our outdoor track, the stright is about 95feet long. What would be a good pinion to start with?

Would a 40wt fr/30wt rr (losi oil) be to much for serpent 8 hole conical pistons (1.2mm holes)? Track conditions are not very bumpy or very smooth. At the moment I have stock 6x 1.3mm pistons fr/rr and 35wt fr/27.5wt rr and the chassis hits the ramp when I jump. Springs are stock (blue fr and red rr).
