Ok guys I have a bit of a problem . My center diff is slinging oil everywhere . On the rear end side between the bearing and plastic part . I rebuilt it and checking the o rings and all all looked good does anyone have any tips for a better seal ? Btw this is a brand new kit never put on track

They come in regularly so its not like this is the first batch. I would expect them to come in within a week or two, you can always ask in their thread when they are expecting another shipment.

On the side opposite the spur gear? If so, I would say try another oring might have gotten nicked during assembly or something. Did you overfill the diff?

Make sure to grease the oring before installation, and to grease the outdrive in the groove nearest the cup.

Oh yeah, that was a fun race!

RC*PHREAK 08-18-2013 11:45 PM

but not as fun as buggy. that was one of the best races i've been a part of. man that was fun.

AlderBoy 08-18-2013 11:54 PM

That's for sure! Love clean, close battles like that where turn marshals and lap traffic aren't even a factor.

I just pick one of these 410 that I have setup for a buddy of mine (he's gone road racing) . I raced it for the first time this weekend and it dominated all weekend. I'm running a 16t and it rips.

Hey, is the rebound issue when the shocks are mounted or when you take them off the truck too? If its when mounted I suggest getting a reamer and cleaning up the holes where you put the pins to attach the arms to the diff, they are very tight and once dirty really effect arm movement. If its when off the truck, I'd say try rebuilding and be very careful when putting the bladder on and did you vent caps? also make sure to clean and grease/oil(I like green losi stuff) the o rings, lastly when rebuilding try rolling shafts on table to ensure they are not bent. Hope this helps, let us know

Hopefully Doogie will agree but I try not to hit anyone and will absolutely wait if I do.

The track that Doogie was running on is pretty small so I can see it getting a little tight out there.

I switched my springs from f/pink r/green to f/yellow r/red. Holly !@#%. I couldn't beleive how much better it handles all around, jumps, turns, you name it. I think my biggest issue at this time is tires. Looking for a good tire for an outdoor hard packed, fairly dry track. Not sure how much, if any, of it is clay. Little dusty but not much. Any suggestions???

Ok I removed center diff greased orings and out drives then put back together as the kit manual indicates . Still spraying oil out . I don't get it

I'd say that's weird for a new kit. maybe you need a new diff case. make sure it's not cracked.
