Yup on checking shock travel VS the outdrives, like any car.
The original towers are junk, the FREE upgrade should be better, the braces should end that issue.
The diff cases need more beef or a slightly altered plastic blend. Perhaps the tower braces will help a bit.
No issues here with gears. Slipper set a little on the loose side. Do a bench test, don't trust the calipers. It will loosen a bit after a few runs but not too much.
Ok so green slime for the shocks and diff orings as a precautionary measure,orings for limiting,gears should be fine with a 6.5 and i never have a super tight slipper so diff gears should get a break,And possibly of the bulkhead braces just in case and maybe the aluminum towers if the cf ones are a problem
