has anyone tried the Spec R "spring steel" unis yet?
http://www.egrracing.com/shop/spring...16-p-3833.html
it looks like they have pin retainers similar to the TOP pin retainers. I seem to be replacing my uni's a lot to keep the slop out, I'm wondering if these might hold up a bit better than the alloy ones most of us use in the rear

For the diff plates, do you guys use any adhesive to mount them on the outdrive? (round plates with no flat notches)
I used to put tamiya thread lock but they break loose easily with a 3000kv motor. Then a fellow driver told me to just build them without any adhesive but just grease between the outdrive and the plates.
Then I found the same tip from Jilles Groskamp somewhere:
"When I build a diff I first sandpaper the plates on both sides, normally around 500-1000 sandpaper.
I use Tamiya Grease hard to put between the outdrive and the plate. Of course make the outdrive and plate clean with motor spray."
Wouldn't it slip if its not glued?

I ran my 416 this weekend, 550/silvers front 500/silvers rear, diffs high, one of Jilles setups with some rear block and shock position differences. Felt good, any issues were with inconsistent driving and warming track conditions. What do you guys do for a warming (hot) track to get some consistent traction with the 416 WE?

I also like to lay the shocks inn one hole on the tower both front and rear.
The car is less edgy when I do this.
