P.S: I'll post some actual photos of the outdrives on the next days.
Do the outdrives have the hole in the end for the pin that they use for the rear diff?

Nitro is still my favorite, but you gotta love brushless power, foam carpet racing. That'll make anybody a better racer. Nice job holding up 3rd. Awesome, Rody!

Nope, the ones I'm referring are the one-way outdrives. The new version are those:

http://www.teamxray.com/xshop/produc...g%20Steel%20(2)

But I'm using the 'old' ones, weren't lightened so much and were more Nitro suitable. I would scary to death about installing those ones on my MTX4 nowadays.

On the phot I've attached the old outdrives are shown.

That's Xray T1 FK Ball Diff. Are you using it for mtx4's front diff ?

edit : oops... I get it now..... you were talking only the outdrives.

The spurs are 3racing gears. I know some guys have had problems with them being out of round.

The one piece mount is a must have item unless you are going to use the 4mm chassis from mugen . I like the Kyosho one piece mount for the RRR, it is light and built very well.

You will have to grind off some of the carb if the brake disk hits it and use a smaller ball end to avoid interference with the fuel tank under full extension of the slide.
