I do the same as jdawg81, with balldriver, no L-wrench. I use cap head screws so I can use a larger balldriver to lessen the chances of stripping the head.
It also helps to grind a little off the OD of the bottom screw head. Some of them can be a tight fit; there isn't much clearance.

I’m assuming neither of you have the latest version of the motor mount?

That explanation was probably terrible....sorry.
I have an Evo 2 that is the most recent design with a lot of other options. I run it in VTA and it’s phenomenal.

Hi engineers and folks,
Will A700-EvoIIC be produced on request? It cannot be back-ordered on the websites.
I heard that ST13 and ST14 will be discontinued and must change to IFJ and IRJ. Is it true? I think my 2 Ball Diffs will be useless if those bones are unavailable.
Thanks

Hi ricekwan,
For A700-EvoIIC you can ask via the Support Email from Awesomatix, or your local distributor.
ST13 and ST14 is discontinued/replaced with IFJ and IRJ at Awesomatix.
But ST13 and ST14 can be still available at some Distributors.
A700-AT03M is suitable for the use of IFJ.
A700-GD2 is suitable for the use of IRJ.
What are the advantage of Ball Diffs for A700 over the Gear Diff in your Opinion ? And in which Class do you run with the BD1 Ball Diff ?
Regards, Max

Hi Max!
Thanks to your help. I like the ball diff since it is a breakthrough to have diff oil in it. It is so smooth that I feel it helps on corner exit, compared with GD1. However it has an issue of oil leak at the case (AT01/AT02). Will try to get GD2. I run modified with X22 10.5T or X20 8.5T.
I have a mod on the RFG to let it float more. It helps me a lot on the real grip. Any other mods to share with us?

I was wondering if you guys knew of any up to date setups for a 700EVO II on this black rug? I know there's some on petric rc, but they're all old "like the car I understand", just seeing if there's any new ones for a vta car out there that you may know of, or should I just use some of the 800's setup sheets as far as dampener and spring rates and roll centers? It's been awhile since I've raced them, I took a break from racing, and I'm looking to use my old cars again. Any other tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated too! Thanks in advance!

I do not know of any. I would start with my 2015 carpet nats setup as that was very hi grip gray carpet.
