Yeah it kinda looks slim in the used market for these. I was hoping to save some cash but may just have to go the new route.

$489 shipped with their 60 off coupon on home page (011b6). If you have the good codes you'll get $75 off (gold codes). And it's in stock.

Hey everyone, I got my eb48, but my front steering hubs are locking up so it only steers part way. I know its the front hubs because when i took them off it works just fine. I dont know if I did something wrong or what, but I know its not supposed to be like that. Please help me out guys.

So whats the smallest pinion anyone has ran on the EB48?
Btw I'm a sponsored DRIVER not speller ;-p
Tks for pointing out my misspellings (tho I'm sure I missed something)
Are you running any kind of boost or timing? I'm on a small to med track with a 2050 with a 17t, and a little boost.. Never warmer than 150

Have you tried putting on wheels yet while it has the shocks on?
I think I remember there being an issue when at full droop without shocks and at full lock. If that is the issue you're seeing, once you put the shocks on and the wheels, you shouldn't get to the point things are locking up. If it is still happening though, a little more info might help folks diagnose what's happening.

Nope 0 boost . track is very loamy so its probably do to the extra wheel spin . I loaned the car to a guy to run this past weekend and for him it kept getting motor hot , tho I'm sure his trigger finger was a big part but was just wondering what's the smallest pinion anyone has got to fit .
My 1900 runs a 15t @145+- on this track

Try tuning your current limiter down a bit if it loose and loamy you can go right down to 50 or 60 % and it won't hurt top speed and be way more controllable

Hobbywing has a punch feature (same thing) if you run a lower # like 1 or 2 it will limit the start up power at takeoff or when you first pull the throttle.

As for the smallest pinion size I have been down to 13, when you try 12 there is a little extra slop in the gear mesh I didn't like.

Kyosho orange is 4lbs and Losi green 3.1lbs
If I go to tekno front black 3.6 and kyosho rear light blue 3.68
It gets Better but front end wanders to grabby not really helping
