What is OB offset vs OB?
Really no shims in the front?
If not to drill my own shock pistons, what would those be the closest to?
Lastly what is the part # for the yellow sway bar?
Definately an interesting set up and looks to be pretty different from the last time he posted from there.
Thanks for the help.

The anti-roll bars are sold in a set in which the yellow is included part number 31364. The car comes with yellow and white bars.
If you can't use Losi #57 use AE #2 pistons.

For anyone using front and rear gear diffs with lower turn motors (under 17.5), what oils have you experimented with? Is 500k the standard regardless, or has anyone tried 300k or 200k? Same thing for the rear...... 80wt/1000 seems to be the starting point. Anyone have a different combination? Going to play around with a 10.5 boosted Friday........
Also, when the grip is really low (cold temperatures inside for example) would it help any going to thinner oils front and rear? Or is that something I would just compensate through setup tweaks (assuming the setup is already pretty good)?

TC6.1 Release Date
Hey everyone, I was just getting ready to buy the TC6 when I started watching this thread. I'm glad I saw that the 6.1 is coming out before I bought it. However, I've been watching closely and haven't noticed any specific release date. I've seen "December" but does anyone know more specifically? My wallet is burning a hole in my pocket

Cold Temps: The guys at our track compensate with setup and leave the diffs alone. Even a few guys running boost run the same combo and only tweak setup for the most part.
Hope this helps.

I should have my AE gear diff today, but I'm trying to decide whether or not to replace the slipper spool up front with either the new spool or another gear diff. What would you guys recommend for an indoor high grip techincal ozite track? I'm planning on starting with 30wt shock fluid for the rear gear diff.

The new spool is more reliable than the slipper spool but when the slipper spool works correctly, you probably would not notice the difference between the two on track. Changing to a gear diff in the front will make a greater difference in performance so I would go with the second gear diff. If you prefer the spool you can wait and upgrade to the new spool later on down the road.

CARPET 17.5 BLINKY: I started with my spec-r gear diffs filled with 300 front / 10k rear. (this was all the track had at the time.) This settled the car down for my driving style quite a bit over the spool/balldiff combo! I have since moved to 500k front/ 1k rear and it improved even more. I was having trouble with the rear end and over rotating. This combo has helped my ability improve immediately. I have the new associated diffs on the way so I can try those also.

30wt is good for the rear diff.

I know that cleaning putty works so I would use that to begin with. But I am going to begin working with thick oil because I think it could be more consistent from diff to diff.
