Once I changed the steering to on the axle, put in the front heavy duty ring and pinion gears and removed the slipper setup in the transmission it has been great. I have not done any other repairs to the drive line and I have no troubles since. I have about 7 hours of running on it. The purple stuff I did mainly for looks and a little strength to. A little bling is always nice.

Been very happy it with it once I did those little mods. I have about 50 bucks in the front ring and pinion setup and 20 for the front servo mount setup. The Slipper removal I did with no money out of pocket. I did the mod that is posted from another website to remove the slipper. Took about 1 hour and thats mainly taking out and reinstalling the transmission. Ring and pinion took less that 30 minutes to do. Servo setup I think took maybe 10 minutes. Since then been a great fun crawler.
