ill agree with you guys on 1/10th truck foams from PL... for some reason they don't fit the tire as well as they should....

However.. the material is fine.. its the same stuff we run in 1/8th scale you probably just noticing that its not the best fit in truck tires but in SCT and 2wd the foams are money, just as good as anything else out there.

The PL molded foams feel good to start, but the center of the tire kind of goes dead which I hate. The issue is the channel on the inside of the foam. I took a piece of stock foam and trimmed it down to just fill in the channel, secure it with a little contact cement. This will fill out the center of the tire better. I have had a set in a pair of Suburbs for something like 9 months now and they still feel great.

Yes. I couldn't get through one battery without breaking a rack. Went through 3 of them before going to aluminum and all is well.

Posted a few times before, but here it is once again.

Funny this is coming upright now. Just checking to make sure I'm not crazy. On the early kits, are the rear pinks for buggy? I got some white rear truck springs and they are considerably longer. If I order rear truck pink springs what length are they now?

jsorwell

Pink and higher rates are the buggy springs. Only grey, white, and yellow are longer

The buggy springs are shorter. I'm not sure of the length difference between the buggy rears and the truck fronts but I imagine they are similar - just different rates. The buggy fronts are too short to use on the truck - IMO

Oh ok...interesting.

Don't tighten down the front wheels. Shug the nuts down and then back off 1/8 to 1/4 turn.
