What kind of weather are you having there?:confused: You seem to be wearing out a lot of things.:sweat:

No problems with the Ti 2 speed shaft from 3Racing.:sneaky:

Yeah... And if you're using the front ball diff, you need the newer 2 piece diff adjuster too That's why it is packed together with the new servo saver in 802145.

I do not have the new servo saver. The only thing Serpent mentioned about it is if you're using the front ball diff with the new servo saver, you need to use the new style 2 piece diff ring. But your problem with the servo link hitting the left hand bulkhead is new to me. Perhaps too much steering lock?

If you email mushroom they may be able to get you one. They told me they could get almost everything in the serpent range.

The out drives I'm talking about are the hudy steel ones from the 705/835. The ones with the 4 slots.

Oneway Outdrives

Wheel Axles (fit front and rear)

The Oneway Outdrives must be tough to drill properly for the lock pins though right?

Onkel Sow, I think you were sleeping when Onkel Sparsky gave tips on what he did to his 710 late last year way before Serpent came out with the options...

You're right ... I was definitely asleep! :sweat: :blush:

That's right, otherwise the nes servo saver won't fit.

I dont run my oneyay locked so I havent drilled them. I just cut them shorter so they fit.

I've tried the front locked but found the front diff better.

I agree with you but Murphy's law says the day I can't lock is the day I'll want to do a quick lock instead of using the diff.

new rear bars

I found out that when using the new rear swaybar, the ball ends on both side have to be pushed 2 mm in. Otherwise the rods rub the dogbones.

This is getting silly now - can this really be down to a manufacturing fault or are we too incompetent to break parts which were intended to be broken :rolleyes: :lol: :lol:
