Just on the rear. Comparing 55's w/27.5 to the 2 hole w/27.5 they feel about the same on the bench but the car recovers super quick on landings. When not landing perfect it just soaks it up and goes. The rear felt a little slow on the bench so I went to 25wt. It obviously has a little less pack but I still like it better. My new ones are 1.55 holes which I will try with 25 as well. At LHR it helps A LOT with the larger jumps. I dont feel it affected traction o.e way or the other compared to 55s.

I am going through my car again and i noticed some gear grinding in the gear box. I thought that maybe I was a little heavy on grease on the gears so i pulled it apart and built it again. I then put it together three times now and I still have gear grinding. Has anyone else run into this or have any ideas of what it might be? I also checked the gears and cleaned all of them to make sure there was nothing stuck in the teeth.

It is in the gears. The diff is totally fine and smooth as butter, btw one of the easiest diffs I have built. I made sure the transmission case screws ware not over tightened checked to make sure all the bearings were seated correctly. Totally stumping me.

When I first built my car, there was some flashing on the inside of the middle gear. When the bearing was pressed in, it deformed the gear enough to cause some resistance. I know you've already had your car running, and this is a new problem. But check that your bearings are in straight. Its a longshot but you never know.

I have a set of blanks I want to try something different with. Does it really matter how exact the hole spacings are? I know it can easily be done with a ruler. I just want to get these Losi pistons out of my car. Sour grapes for spending as much as I did on my 22 to only still have it suck for me? you betcha!

The Kyosho blank pistons have 6 divots already in them, which are evenly spaced. Pick your hole(s) opposite each other and drill them out with a 1.3mm (#55) bit and you are set. I will be there tomorrow if you need any other assistance. R'Dub

B) does this grinding sound happen with the gearbox out of the car? or only when a pinion is running against your spur?
