Hpi Pro 4

Just realize that the more flex you have by running different chassis/top decks, the more the infamous torque steer will make itself known. The Pro4 is a very stiff car and I imagine HPI made it that way because of the torque steer problem.

The torque steer is not very bad on the pro4, I doubt that most drivers are good enough to notice..I watched Hara use a 5T in a pro4 using a 2mm chassis and all he did was lap the whole field at the nats. So "chew" on that torque steer..

Part number for the HPI Pro4 spool is 75168. I believe stormerhobbies have some in stock. However keep in mind that it may cause issues with the front gears giving way/breaking in a crash.

And who told you that you had to run a spool? What you run (just an opinion) depends on the track that your running at, as itchy said..you run a spool you will break gears if and when you hit anything. I would run a diff in the front at first until you get use to the car, then use the spool..I prefer a oneway to a spool but it's all personal preference..

Whatever..the guy asked if someone could help with a part..why in the .... should I list it in the for sale thread..I was not actively selling any pro4 stuff, just trying to help a fellow pro4 racer..I posted the photo to show that I had the part in question..
