What Kyosho o rings are you all running in the big bores and does anyone have a link to a setup for low- medium bite for a b4.1?

I'm gonna try using the Losi crush washer for the bleeder on the TLR caps. Pretty sure it will fit, and its gotta be better than the O-ring.

The AE BB's are a 3mm shock shaft as well, what would be the benefit unless you think the TiN coating isn't as good as chrome plating?

Probably want at least Blue front and yellow rear on B44.1 if running Losi BB springs on carpet.

Will Avid's or GHEA collars fit the new big bores? Or any other ones that are not blue?
