Default MIP Cvd's

Upgrading my black car.Bought the WCE MIP Cvd's.They don't fit the one way in the front.Too fat.Anyone have a part number for the newer(I assume) front oneway? Or parts needed to get this to work? Maybe just the outdrives?Thanks,Mario.

What kind of lipo are you using. Lipo's like the orions that use bullet connectors are easy to mount...lipo's with built in wiring like the core rc ones require a little bit of finesse

here are pictures of my two cars. The first one is my cyclone "s" (bought it with the entire 3 racing catalog installed) with a core RC 3250 in it. The second is my 13.5 TC car with the Orion 3800 in it with the bullets.

I run that car in the usvta class so those are the 26mm front and 31mm rear hpi vintage wheels. Are you thinking about getting the upper or lower bulkhead?
I am running the 3racing upper bulkhead on the touring car in the other pic because I broke the old style one in the front. I like the upper ones and have never had a problem. On the usvta car though it has the upper and lower 3 racing bulkheads so you have to put a small set of shims between the two otherwise it pinches the bearing carrier

im intrested in the lower bulkheads .so you would recomend me getting the 3racing bulkheads instead of getting the normal ones that are twice expensive, how many mm of shim do you use.

The 3 racing bulkheads are heavier than the genuine ones. Also when 3racing originally brought out the bulkheads i think there were manufacturing issues which is why you need the shims.

But will be good if you are on a budget, and give you that bling
They are also better if you have a habit of coring plastic parts when you screw things into them **OOOPPSSS**
