I use an allen wrench and tap it out with a small hammer or pliers to hammer it out lightly.

Sounds like when u broke the arm the hinge pin may have bent.

Remove the rear Chassis plate. 6 screws on the bottom, 2 lower shock screws from the arms, pop the outer ball cups, and the whole assembly will come out.

I got it. Thanks guys.

I got a set of AKA vectors in soft, Has anyone ran these and if so what direction do you run the treads?

It should say on akas site look how they are mounted im sure you have read that one way is more traction thsn the other also just take the wheel wrench down with you and try them one way and the other

C hub, regular brace, VISION shelf and shorty for me, esc in tray and RX on shelf.

I run them regularly. I typically mount them so the arrow is pointing to the back of the car. It is another way to tune the handling. Try them both ways & see what you like best.

Has anyone used the upgrade vortex wing? How do I use the grid? I mean I get how a grid works...Is there somewhere that has what holes to use????

Stick the grid onto the wing and position the wing where you want it on the car. mark the boxes in the grid that line up with the wing mounts and drill/ream your holes. Then when you're done, remove the grid sticker. The grid just helps to give you a guide when centering/mounting the wing so it's not crooked.

With the lugs closed on the leading edge ( looks like ^), you have more side bite. With them open, you have more forward bite. Didnt like them in the open position. ran them to the foams and then never bought another set.

I was just on Upgrade RC's website, and I didn't see a 1/10 buggy wing. Are you using the 1/8 buggy wing on the B4.2?

Maybe I'm not looking in the right area on Upgrade's website...

So I know it's early but I'm gearing up for the summer outdoor circuit by slowly buying the tires I will run so it's not so hard on my checkbook when the times comes. I am going to run the Hotrod Shootout and other races, I hear everyone says to run Proline X2 tires, is this true? If so, how many sets of rear/front tires would I need for a race like the Shootout? Also, if I get X2 tires, what inserts would be best for those tires? AKA red inserts? Thanks in advance.

Question?
I am just getting into R/C Racing again and looking to buy a b4.2 Factory kit. Right now i run a Traxxas Slash at Island Raceway in Long Island. I was wondering if anyone out there could let me know what the best ESC and Motor to get for someone who is just getting back into the hobby. Please remember i would like something I can stay competitive once i advance out of the sportsman class.

Thanks in advance
