Haven't begun the build yet. Are you saying the SCT410 comes with aluminum hinge pin holders or just the front comes with one aluminum hinge pin holder? At work away from the kit right now but will be ordering spares here shortly.

you also get the plastic version too for the front.

Question on the rear hingepin holders in alloy.

If you use an alloy holder, can you use say just the front-rear or rear-rear and get the same benefit?

Got an EB48 here and was thinking I could just donate the one of the two to the vehicle, but not sure if you get more durability benefit from one or the other.

I've been following along with what I can for the Setup info and looks like some really good info. I do have a question on some of the shock oils and springs though.

I saw that some mentioned running the HB Grey Springs F/R and was wondering what oil they are using for them. Also with the Losi Red & Green springs F/R what oils are being used. I already have the springs avaible so just curious on oil.

Also is the composite Ackerman OK or should I get the Alum one. I already plan on getting the Alum Hexes.

I look forward to starting to build my new "monster" soon
If i where you i would try the stock springs and oils first as i have just raced my 410 for the fourth time and fourth tracks and the truck worked great on all four. The only thing i changed from the stock build was the shock mounting location on the tower to the second to last hole from the inside and the droop 4mm lest than stock. Aluminum hexes yes. Now i am going to replace the oils with fresh oil of the same weight. When it gets hot out i may go thicker on the oils but for now i like the stock shock and diff setup.

Default Pro Match batteries

I think Cain and another guy on this forum recommended Pro-Match batteries so I ordered a few. Super impressed, definitely one of the most powerful packs I've ever used and they had them on my door step in three days. Hmmm great product and good service. Kind of reminds me of another company we all think highly off!

+1 start with stock setup then go from there depending on what you want
