Should've bought a race roller! About 80% done with my fresh stock 8B kit and has the following issues
1. One of the diff cups is warped preventing install - luckily had extra from 8T spare parts
2. WTF a 8T front center shaft was included instead of the much shorter 8B shaft, found out after I installed the wrong shaft in - luckily ordered an extra one
3. Rear center driveshaft is too short!, Have to go to hardware shop and look for shims.
WTH is wrong with losi these days, my 1 year old 8T was immaculate.

a question for anyone that has used skid plates :
Im thinking of putting a skid plate on my car that has about 1.5-2 mm worn off the chassis already. If i put a new diff case on the rear, it will stick out 1-2 mm, are the skid plates hollowed out where the diff case sits? Will the diff case sticking out prevent the skid plate from sitting properly against the chassis?
