Nope, that with shipping. Nitrohouse sells for $339 use coupon code summer 2012 and that saves 10% so that's $305 plus $21 shipping. That was shipping to PA. Total priced shipped was 328 or 329

problem with all these places is taxes and shipping for us that live in CA. Booo for taxes. I got mine at a local hobby shop for 350 cash. Which is about 10 bux cheaper for us in CA for said above deal

I've run the XXX-SCT since it came out, which I understand shares the same transmission ratio, and have never ever needed an 88. I've run with 8.5, 10.5 and 17.5. I suspect that if you have an 88 something is amiss.

Buy the right size spur, or run without the cover. Not a big deal. The truck will work.

Strange problem with my diff. When I was assembling my diff, as I did many times before on my other cars, I found out that when I snug my center bolt, my out drives bite together and the plastic gear in the middle is loose and wiggly. So after closer inspection, it looked like one of those outdrives was not machined right. Anyways, that is what I was hoping for....after $20 for new out drives and 40 miles round trip to the hobby shop, my diff was fixed! Thanks Losi!

Lol, what do you run on a mod motor then, if not an 86 or 88...? You must run tiny pinions, then...?

Yeah. I'm getting mine for $340 from a guy that bought 2 and his wife wouldn't let him keep them.

The 86 tooth spur is the biggest spur that will work on the 22SCT due to limitations in room between the gear cover and camber tie rod.

The 86 spur gear that is included in the kit is the recommended size for mod motors.

Overall very smooth to drive and jumps well too.
Can you compare to the 22B? I'm not a big fan of SCT but its one of the biggest classes and I'm torn on whether or not to get one to go along my 22B... If they drive pretty similar I may because it wouldn't throw me off much to switch from one to another.

If you feel there was an issue with the outdrives, please call customer support and they will replace them for you.

i'm running a associated 87th, slipper pads, and vented hubs with no fitment issues.
