What kind of track do you run it on? Indoor/outdoor, large/small, smooth high bite/bumpy loose? Been thinking of trying out green all around. Also what pistons do you run? Thanks

I changed the rear to green, much much better for a hard packed ( pretty rough terrain ) 1/8 scale track.

Depends on your driving also a lot. But yeah always found the fronts need replacing more often than not on this car. You are running a lot thicker center diff oil than me so it should be lesser wear for you. I run 7 7 5 or if its too loose in rear 7 5 5.

I need to change my base setups now because of the new chassis/weight loss and also the smoother drivetrain. Will do a test day this weekend I guess.

No just curious. I'm more than happy with my current car. :-)

Does the new diff case raise the outdrives?

Canted for better angle

Looks great man. Is that the angled diff case? Or is that a self made modification? Either way it looks good man.

The new rear diff case, as others have said it didn't need the shims to stay snug either.

Every week a little more Ti finds it's way on it. Lunsford turnbuckles are in the mail. :tire:

Sounds good, thanks for the info on the shims since I got my new diff case on its way in the mail.

Hard pack clay high bite 1/8 track the track is very smooth with very large jumps. It also has a washboard section ( very rough section ) and I can go through at full speed and stay perfectly in control. I'm running stock pistons with 45frt and 40rr and 5-5-3 in the diffs. Very dialed. Just started using the jc high flow body but will be going back to the tundra for durability because my brand new jc is already starting so crack in the corners. My tundra bodies have lasted me a good while with no issue

Well looks like I'm gonna go green, sounds like they are what I'm looking for. Thanks for the info, much appreciated.

I have a question for you guys. Where are you guys mounting your ESC's on/off switch at on your truck? I am running the side air guards so I have mine on the guard but I am looking around and don't know where else I can put it if I take off the guards. So right now that is preventing me from taking the guards off even just to see the difference in feel without them. I run the RX8g2

mydudrevo 10-05-2013 01:33 PM

Personally I don't use on/off switches they are just another point of failure so I cut them off and solder the wires together and heat shrink it. Not everyone does this but I knows my who do

Shoegoo'd to the side of the ESC
Also, extension wire against the servo for the transponder :sneaky:
