Mavtop- the same thing has drawn me to JQ as well. What I look for in terms of "support" is real information about what I am racing. The "why" something works is very important. I enjoy the learning part of RC as much as anything. Sites like this allow the racers representing the top brands to interact with the customers. Not enough take advantage of it.

Newly developped option part, a weight for the central diff..

THE JQRacing Differential Cup with ballast is used on the center differential, and includes an o-ring and differential shim.
The added weight smooths out the acceleration, and helps maintain corner speed due to the higher inertia of the drive train.

Got a question. Just put my rear gear box together on the WE LV, and it is super tight. Can't figure out what I'm bound up on.
Gonna disassemble to see if I cant get it looser. The diff itself went together no problem, but after it was in the gear box (the plastic piece that the gear diff sits inside of) it is extremely tight and feels like the rear gear teeth are super tight.
Is that something common that causes binds in the rear gear box? or something else around the rear gearbox. Took apart the car, middle and front diffs move easily enough. And the brakes are nice and loose.
Turning the rear axle from the sides results in opposite rotation on the other side, but no movement from the outdrive that goes from the rear box to the center diff. Thinking the binding must be around this part.
Amy advice would be great!
Thanks for you help!

The diffs are a little tight to start with but not like that.
The long screws/bolts that go through the bottom of the diff housing that hold the arm holders, how tight did you do them up, going to tight can cause binding.

So took the whole gear box apart. The only glitch seems to be a small rub with the pinion gear inside the plastic of the gear box.
I did my best to spin the pinion gear around with some lithium grease in order to smooth things out.
Put the gearbox back together very very lightly.
Now the gearbox is much smoother, but you can still feel some of the drag from the pinion gear rubbing.
I would say at least 95% better than it was.
Thumbs up for ozziii. Thanks man, good idea to loosen everything up around the gearbox.

The rear diffhousing assembly should be running real free from the beginning
only thing that you could get wrong there, is the inner bearing to the centershaft, that is not pushed in all the way/ deep enough
did you check that out already ?

The problem is most likely that the inner bearing isn't pushed in all the way. It is quite tight, so the mesh stays good.
