For me, reducing rotating mass was more about avoiding the idiot behind me than improving lap times.

I looked at the E1D stuff but didn't see anything for the KF2 (I looked on Discount RC). I saw that they offered generic ones that you could cut out, but if I was going to go that route, I'd just get sheets from JConcepts. Thanks for the suggestions!

Hello Bob ..!
all the e1D Armors are generic and are produced this way intentionally with the idea that you'll spend < 5min actually cutting them to fit and have many months of REUSABLE use from them. They are very thick and sturdy and can be peeled and re-stuck many many times. If they begin to not stick as well, you can simply rinse under warm water and revitalize them .. quite a good product ... let us know if you have any specific questions and we'll get them answered for you ..

Hello..!
To my knowledge, there isn't an 'official' repair kit for these style of axles. It would seem that someone has developed a way to fix them ( we love to know this BTW ) however it has not been made known to us .. Part U4195 is the actual replacement axles if you decide ...

Thank you ..! We'd be happy to help when you're ready .. We have our KF2 working pretty well on clay at the moment .. the MM is almost a must for that ..

Looks like 1633 contains the 2.5mm pins that get worn down by the outdrives. I'm going to replace my severely worn drive pins and live with the worn universals. Buying the complete driveshafts would be better, of course.
People used to replace the KF universals with KR CVDs. You might consider that to smooth out the rear end.

Yes. They're press fit so you need a pin pusher, which I have. I really should replace the entire driveshaft but I'm going to see how new pins do for now.
I've been running my KF2 since the week it came out and I think I've worn out everything you can wear out. Drive pins are more than halfway gone. Universals are loose. Front hinge pins have been in there so long they're worn down and sloppy. Wheel hexes are worn on the bearing side. Side gears are shiny on one side. Curiously, I'm on the original belt and spur gear. Both seem perfectly fine. Only on the second body and first E1D chassis protector. Feels like I've bought a hundred wings at $8 each...
