Rear rod ends
Hello, anybody know what rear rod ends Ronnefalk use at Neo? There is good image at Neo today to see (can't post link or image). Maybe it's sworkz, but seams using 7mm balls, HB is 6.8.
I have to use drops to avoid hitting wheels in the rear. Thanks for feedback.
P.S. Thanks for TRiN answer, it's 204141 from D817

Thanks. Made my day. Got roasted on FB yesterday trying to help a guy out. Don't get it? It's still a hobby and I have fun messing with stuff. I did some machine shop in college cause I was always interested in making my own stuff. If I had a better mill I would try some crazy crap. Got a whole nother thought on nitro buggies. Maybe oneday? I really don't understand why no company has made a battery set up like it. Just seems to make sense. You wouldn't stand a battery up in a 1/10 scale, why 1/8?

Just the input gear and crown gear. The E817 comes stock with the truggy gearing instead of the gearing that is standard on the D815 or D817. I was just about to do this to my E817.
I tried both gear ratios when I ran a converted D815, and the buggy gearing resulted in a much more controllable throttle response and was better suited to my driving style.

What spur gear and pinion would that be on a 2100kv motor?

About to run my E817 with the standard D815 gearing this weekend. Victor Guerrero says he likes the D815 gearing better, and as I mentioned, I liked it better on my converted D815. I'll post again after I run it.

Here is some pictures of my E817, I am very happy with how the build went! I am very happy with the motor combo from Team Orion, and when it was time to choose a servo,i opted for the Futaba S9352HV and I have the infamous S9353HV ready to install,but Im saving this until I have found a good setup.The Futaba servo works perfect together with my Sanwa M12S and the Sanwa RX-472 receiver. I have noticed that there is a lot of e817īs around , but not many with a proper saddle shortypack setup, except for Ty Tessmannīs car when he won the Padova Winter Challenge. I like it very much! These days I'm doing a major upgrade, replacing every wire with beefier awg8 and 6.5mm CC polarized connectors , so i can use my stick packs as well! I' will post some pics when I'm done soldering!

Whats the verdict on changing the gearing? Is it worth doing or similar feeling can be achieved by running lighter center diff fluids with the stock 10T gear?

How many packs do you have through the car? Mine didn't work well till the parts got some wear on them, about ten packs or so. My charger blew up and i'm so wanting to drive my car it hurts. The waiting.

I am using it more then two races, approximately 12 packs and more. Before I had converted D815 to electric version and it was with standard rear shock tower. The same track, the same motor, batteries, tires, etc. The results are very different. With converted D815 I could show the much better results then with E817.
