I can't wait to see what everyone who has the center diff has been saying first hand, controllable power on demand, and easier to correct in the air. I want to change my rear springs to the front blue springs as I'm told they work better with the exotech chassis, but I saw someone post to use the limiters and adjust ride height? If I use the c clip thingy I hear they pop off so can I use fuel line? If so how much do I cut? I just got a new digital caliper last night and am dying to use it lol.
P.S. if someone made a quick vid on how to change the front springs to the rear. You'd kinda of be my personal savior lol
The spring cup slides over the c-clips. This raises the cup upwards. So starting from the bottom of the whole shock assembly it goes like this:
- Shock Spring put on first
- then C clips on top of the eyelet
- Then bottom shock cup OVER the c clips
- Then any C clips (you may put these on with the other c clips, just make sure they are separate) that you are using to limit up travel.

I have the FT with the VTS, and a high torque inner pad. 4-5 minutes into a race the slipper over heats, and starts to give up when needed. I'm going to try a locking hub at some point, I just haven't gotten around to it.
Garodiscs I would say.
