I went with the Manutech plate, mine came marked at 182g , I drilled out the holes in the center of the plate to balance the car. I also used a dremel and made little sections for the battery to set down inside to help keep the battery locked in. I know you can get it from Manutech or Stormer also carries them, just look under Manutech at stormer hobbies. Hope this helps.

Diff problem
Hey guys, We have just rebuilt our diffs and one in particular slips and loosens straight away. We do all the normal clean and lube , tighten and loosen 1/8 etc etc . Has anyone had a dodgy diff and if so what part caused it . We are running mod motors . Thanks in advance

This one seems just what I was looking for. Appears it has the pack hangin off the chassis some which is just what I was looking for. Trying to move some of the existing weight to balance it out more and I won'thave to add as much lead.

The SRC batter holder is great. The one thing you have to keep in mind is it raises the batter strap quite a bit. It made it so my SMC 4000 packs need something on top to hold it on. I switched to SMC 5000 packs and they fit perfectly.

Sweet. 5k is what i'm running in it.
You can also use a long screw through the blue thumb 'bolt' and makes them easier to use, allen driver instead of your fingers. I did this on my b44 with the long rear shock/chassis screws off my t4. ..but the whole metric switch you'll prolly need the thumb bolt & screw from an Standard AE kit and fresh battery posts... the threads seem close but not the same when I tried this on the tc5 thumb bolts.

I think its aluminum but I won't swear to it, some kind of metal. The battery strap posts connect to the tray and the tray is screwed into the chassis using the holes where the battery strap posts were. There are several mounting holes to adjust how far inboard or outboard the battery is.

One thing to note is that the Orion Platinum 4800mah packs are a little more narrow than some of the newer packs on the market. Unlike the Diggity brace you have no option on the cutout based on battery dimensions. Diggity offers a 'wide' option for the newer packs.

Rick Hohwart, any plans on some new cvds and axles that actually fit the bearings ?
Current axles have to small a dia. and therefore create slop.
Thanks.
