The best thing you could ever throw in your Pit/tool/tackle Box. Is a Cordless power Drill. I would debate buying a Power Drill over an upgrade such as a Plastic to Aluminium Shock. Variable Speed, Clutch, and Quick Chuck is King. If no clutch, snug it up to the location and hand tighten it, No Chuck? Use the bits in your Hand Driver Handles. (they're 2.00 apiece)

To all of you guys lurking this thread, You spend the money on this one time instead of some FT upgrade, you will "enjoy" your Truck, rebuilding and tuning; which ultimately will result in less money spent in parts replacement and less wear on the Truck itself. Dremel makes them, Ryobi, Black and decker will even work. GO.

Last night I got my diff out in 6minutes with my $30 cordless LI-ON drill. It was very easy. I actually find maintenance on this easier than my slash, it just takes some getting used too.
Is there any thing wrong with running blue/blue springs? I tried yellow/yellow but it over and understeers like crazy.
