i had ordered them along with the MRE from Champ... got 2, actually. i have an assortment of 415s! i think i have all of them, except the actual MSX... mine is a convert. plus, 2 MS's... getting out of hand!

the front diff is very nice.. just like the rear. uses the blades, as well. i should have ordered another alternated pulley at the same time.

what did everyone do for fitting the white pulleys on the oneway? cut down the pulley, or the bearing holders?

whoever bent them is an animal. I've had mine for more than a year and they're absolutely fine.

The usual solution is to cut down the flange on the bearing holder (i got an extra set so i could have one holder set for the one way) it works totally fine. i was slack and only shaved one holder. be careful not to shave the entire flange off as your bearing can move out and create way too much slop in the one way. but this works and its an easy solution.

Any way you can post a pic of the holder with maybe an arrow or something of where to cut? I got my extra set of bearing holders yesterday, already got the oneway on my last shipment ...just don't want to "hork it up"

Tryhard, thanks for the great piece of info.

Anyone with the part numbers for the oneway housings and other necessary parts to convert to a oneway on the mre? Thanks.

What was the part number for the LWT arms again? And does anyone have Mrc Reinhard's 05 IIC setup? I see on Ed's site there is Martin Crisps, Tamiya site has a oneway setup for Marc Reinhard, but it has Sorex 32's as the tires so I'm pretty sure it isn't from the IIC as the handot tire for that was CS27's.

if you mean the new short evo 5 ones:53928
if you mean the original MRE lt. wt ones:51104

Harsh: the new MRE pulleys are diff than the msx ones and the diff doesn't need and can't use that sticker anymore...just get some good balls..the stock ones blow..I use acer ceramic..also put a oring in the diff over the screw head to cover the thrust. Like Juan said: all you need to do it clean not replace..

hier: awesome to meet you! grats on the win! come out some more!
