You guys know where I can get my hands on some K-Factory NTC3 parts from? There's nothing listed on their site as dealers.

You need a K-factory centax clutch? I have one new in package. Make an offer!

This is the cheapest place I have found to get K parts in the US. Problem is they sell cheap and stock is limited. They are out of stock on most items now, but they have an order due in anytime so stock will be back soon. Don't buy from Trinity if not an absolute have too!!! The are way to high on K parts. Don't give Ernie any pocket change!! LOL

The one thing that shied me away from using the spool with my FT NTC3 was my concerns over how the drivetrain would handle the extra loads put on it by the spool.

V2 rear end
Do you set rear width the same a the front with the plastic tool. Also do you only adjust the lower front for toe and leave lower back pivot alone? Instructions are not clear.
Also any one have problems with the front out drives just holding the bones?

Last big race of the year here last year we stripped 3 spools, one each heat. Switched back to a diff and were 2 laps slower, but the car stayed together! We ran a total of 5 heats for the main, at least they took the best heat of the 5 for main positions. Oneways last better but will also strip eventually. Bob

We strip 1 to 3 diffs out of the car each raceday. I've tried and shimmed it everyway possible, and we are not hitting anything, not bouncing off the boards or pipes, nothing!

On a high traction open track using VHT, I found the front one-way worked extremely well.

Its usually always the big ring gear but I have seen the small gear take a few teeth lose also, I think it was do because of the ring gear teeth getting caught in the pinion gear and binding it up.
