I just finished putting together my FT kit I picked up on the weekend. I have added no mods to it, kept it stock, even down to the setup and will use my close to FT RTR as a test bed for any mods first. I have the centre diff but running on a carpet only track makes putting it in not the best idea. Don't get me wrong, I have two trucks to try it out on and if I get out to the outdoor track at Average Joe's, it will be a great mod to install before that track. I had one missing aluminium screw (there were steel ones where ever an aluminium one went) and a seriously leaking bottle of 5K diff fluid, so overall not bad. The build went completely uneventful as I already had taken the RTR down a few times to check and rebuild the diffs (worn outdrives only), so there were no surprises. I kept with the Tekin Pro 4 4000K but this time, went saddles and RX8. In my RTR, I had the LRP TC Spec and stick pack. Both are balanced side to side but the saddle pack has a bit more up front bias. Once I get some scales, I will be able to set things up a bit more professionally rather than the methods I am currently using (not very accurate). Some day, I will get some pics of my pair of 4x4's and post them. My two bodies are well beaten and bruised so they look very scale, in fact, better than most full sized SC trucks after a race, lol. Thanks for the many tips and tricks. Take care.
