Just received mail from Mugen Co. Ltd, they are sending me a replacement part (diff gear roller pin).
Mugen places 'Priority' to their customers and there service is excellent with instant replies, though its just a small part!
I am surprised, seriously!

Surprised no more, as Mugen, especially Mugen Seiki USA do take any matters very seriously. Their post-sale service is next to nada. I do strongly agree with RClover.

I knew you'd ask me the question. Well, my wife wasn't cooperative to hold the belts, so I put my phone to work.

That was going to be my next question so you answered it.
Sound like they are the bomb!

I'd just prefer what I've been using. Learned my lessons.

this servo is huge and i cant tie it under the upper deck as it touches the 4mm Mugen chassis!
Trying to lower the servo to get a parallel throttle link with the upper deck, any fix?
