I was diligent again

First I was excited to finally make a befitting lipo mount to get rid of the tape and and the lexan angles I used up to now. It is definitely an easy solution consisting of two L-shaped carbon fiber parts with two holes to mount them on the backbone of the chassis just underneath of the drive shaft; and one hole on the other side to mount a small post and the small carbon fiber plate (this part is doing its job since I bought it from Reflex Racing for my TC6.1) that holds down the battery:




And then I installed the dust covers. The fitting is nearly perfect, but I am sure dust will find a way. If it keeps out sand and stones, then I am happy.








Again the rear differential needed a full service. A mix of green slime and oil was pushed out and all over the left side of the car. I had enough of this and cleaned everything. I took an 8mm drill, widened and deepened the O-ring hole. Then I took Xray shock O-rings and slipped them over the outdrives. Lets see if this will solve the leaking from the outdrives.
