Didn't realize the build tips had been updated. Did you use servo tape to hold them down? Just wondering if they are more to keep the body from folding in or if you use them to keep the body on without clips?

I dont understand the complaints about the slop in the steering assembly / ackerman bar? does the car not steer? what problems does it bring?
I have noticed the slop also. but it is not a problem nor an issue at all. well at least I find it not to be a problem.
20+ pack ran with my d413 and it is still fine. no issue

Code:
D413 ZX5 D413 ZX5 Front Front Rear Rear Width 26.3 27.8 38.5 37.8 Backspacing 23.5 24.5 26.7 26.0 Hex Face to Outside Face2.8 3.3 11.8 11.8 Hex Face to Mid Tire -10.4 -10.6 -7.5 -7.1 Hex Depth 2.9 2.9 3.8 3.4 Nut Pocket Depth 0.4 1.1 3.9 7.5 Outer Bead 5.7 5.7 5.7 4.7 Inner Bead 5.7 6.1 5.8 5.2
The rear ZX5 rims are interestingly 0.7mm narrower, but the backspacing is also 0.7mm less, so the absolute width is unchanged and the mid tire to mid tire width is increased 0.6mm.
I had to take a body reamer to the rear tire's axle holes and remove a little bit of material to fit the larger axle of the D413. I will use my ZX5 rims without a second thought!

Torrance designed the d812 to have "slop" in it when new so I assume the "slop" some of you are referring to is normal on this car. It helps keep the feel of the car more consistent as it begins to wear in. Haven't driven mine yet but I feel nothing feels too loose or "sloppy".

Pinion selection
T. Deguzman or Tye,
Can you guys give a suggestion of what range of pinion tooth sizes might be good for me to keep in stock for the D413 ? I'll be running a 6.5 turn motor.
I race at 7 different tracks that have anywhere from 2,000 to 12,000 square feet of racing surface.
The smallest track's (2,000 square feet) longest straight is about 30 feet long.
The larger tracks have straights around 130 feet long.
Thanks for the help

Jakesterama, Thanks man !
At least that gives me a range of pinions to include on my initial purchase.
I noticed you mentioned "This is based on setups and recommendations for other 4wd vehicles."
Does the D413 have the same tooth count on the internal diff gears as other 4wd 10th scale buggies ?
