Right you are:cool: Its been a while but I remember when the plastic ones were new. And if I remember correctly not only were they lighter, they also had (and I assume still do) more volume.

Nope! They are hard coated but not threaded. At least they aren't the blue RTR ones. It also doesn't have the titanium tie rods. But your buddy was right, it is plastic with no aluminum hop ups.

More rear toe will give the car a lot of on power grip. You'll be pulling wheelies if the track can handle it.
Overall however, it will make the car less stable. Any surface irregularities the car...

Yup they'll work. For the RTR they would be an upgrade, and for the B4 they're the same as the kit just polished.

You may have marred the surface of the motor plate by overtightening the bolt. I find that after a while its hard to set mesh when I try a different pinion. The bolts seem to just want to tighten in...

It all comes from the same place. Its all GE silicone. Although personally I've never liked the fact that Losi adds dye to theirs. I say if you run Associated use AE oil.

Your slipper is probably too tight. Just loosen it a little at a time. And make sure your diff is tight enough. Lock it then back it out 1/8 to 1/4 of a turn.

Sorry I can't remember. I bought a roll like 12 years ago and still haven't used it up. But if your shop has a fly guy he will probably know.

Does the Factory Team T4 come with the HD servo saver spring and steering rack bearings? If not I would recommend getting these items.

If you won't be racing go lipo. By far the most run time. Especially with the efficiency of a brushless system.
