R/C Tech Forums

Guys, I have looked through 25+ pages of this thread and still did not find what I was looking for, so if this a repost I apologize, but I wanted some info on the two piece center diff (losa4444). Basically, will it straighten the angle from the slide carb to the throttle servo at a right angle opposed to 75 degrees or whatever the angle is now? The new center diff is back in stock and I just want to make sure this will fix the geometry issues I have with my throttle linkage.
Thanks in advance, Mike

It does fix the geometry issues as well as stiffen everything up which makes braking much more consistent. Well worth the $$.:nod:

Also, a few pages back, I read something about the "black" brake discs being a major upgrade over the stockers. I would like to order them, but want to make sure I have the correct part number. Losa3545, is this correct?
Thx, mike

I need to pick up the brake discs for both vehicles; I was getting pretty inconsistent feedback last race from both vehicles. Would go from almost nothing to very strong with little between. Buggy had been pretty good prior to this past weekend.

:nod:

Measure from the center of the screw on the top to the center of the screw on the bottom. As pballer2777 said stock settings are 110 front and 130 rear.;)

I run them on both cars and unlike them. Makes the center diff much more stable. They do need screws that are 1/4 inch longer but that's small stuff.
