Thanks for the suggestions. It turned out to be a small imperfection in the transmission case. I cleaned it up with an xacto knife.

Is it possible or worth it(cost wise) to turn this 4.2 into a mid motor configuration?
If its possible and worth it is there a page in this thread that goes over what i would need to buy?

Thanks, found a kit on the bay.
I figure since i have a backup roller, maybe turn it into a centro.

Seeing that Panther Step Pins for stadium trucks are not in stock anywhere; I fear they are discontinuing them. I am thinking about going to my backup plan of running HPI rear/Slash 4x4 offset wheels with Badlands/Gladiator tires (my combo that I run on all my trashing SC10s) to be as close to the same width as running Associated ST wheels.
Anyone ever run wider offset SC wheels/tires on their T4s?

OMG!
With a fresh set of short course Badlands tires on the rear of the T4; Gladiators up front, the truck was handling the rough track much better than I had anticipated. My first thoughts were that the heavier rubber would totally numb a stadium truck's nimbleness. The truck was such a blast to drive, I may not put my normal ST wheel/tire combo back on this year! I do have a ever so slight push with the Badlands gripping hard , but will soften up the front some to try and regain lost steering while running medium compound tires up front. The sharp edges of the large knobby rear tires won't last forever.

Shims
After doing a tear down; cleaning, and re-lube, I've come to notice the front caster blocks having a lot of forward/aft movement.... a good millimeter and a half at least.
I'm currently waiting on my mail lady to (hopefully) deliver my package of shims. I used to be obsessed with tightness of parts (without binding of course), but I have become more relaxed with shimming since I got away from racing. I used to use aluminum shims and spacers, then switched to plastic, and later I just used whatever is laying around in pitbox. Maybe my slop OCD is creeping back to me.
When shimming, what material does everyone use for their shims?
