What size shims are they? If I have some shims on hand can I use those instead of grinding the pinion shaft?

Basically, increase the size of the flat spot on the gear shaft. This will not hurt anything and if anyone breaks a diff pinion as a result of this mod, email us and we'll get you a new diff pinion gear.

Just to clarify for everybody, from looking at where the spacers were going, if we grind it we should grind the flat spot towards the pinion, not towards the end of the shaft, correct?

Is their any other shims from another manufacturer (ie. Those traxxas 5mm id teflon washers) that we can get from our lhs in mean time to get that clearance?

Ha, just seen you recommend**grinding it so i think that's what I'll do. Both pinion shafts??

Yes, both pinions. The shim size is 5x7x.2mm (standard hobby size).

Do you know how many kits got sent to tower? I know there was alot of pre- orders and I got my pre-order In a little late so I was trying to figure out if I will get mine on the first shipment :-)

We don't really give out that information, but we supplied about half of the pre-orders with the first shipment. So it's hard to say. The next shipment is being packaged now so it won't be too long if you aren't on the initial shipment list.

for me probably be second shipment with my luck lol. had it ordered beginning of Dec but got my account hijacked so had to reorder, dec 10th is my number.

Do you know if any of the distributors you sent to have any extra kits?
