The 10 x 15 bearing is the same as the FW so dont need that.
I got the centre conversion today and realise I need smaller pinions now so that i have a choice for smaller tracks otherwise I have to rebuild the whole thing every time
Jeeez!!!

One question... or 2....
Why would you want to use the MTX-3 rear end with rubber tyres? Its only an advantage with foams
and why the really soft springs in the pic??

Whoops is that a new Tamiya It was on the MTX-3 thread I thought it was an FWO5. Sorry
At any rate I converted my Evo to the Mugen Rear and it add makes cmaber adjustments much easier. Also you can add way more camber than the Kyosho hubs.

Marcos: I would recomend using stiffer rear springs. The 05R has great traction as it came from the factory. Try to install a one way, it would help you a lot on the steering. Since you are going to race on a high traction surface, adjust the cluth so it can engage at higher RPM (about an aditional 2mm from factory spec) this will create dramatic launches exiting the corner.
Good luck!
