If you purchased the kit new, you should have received an appendum about the longer screw and the addition of the orings under the battery box.

If you didn't get said appendum, you can find it here;

The only real 'kink' I found in the rear gearbox feeling notchy when it's tight. Many run it a little loose, I actually reemed out the bearing housing on the inside by about 1mm to give it room. My Losi spins like a Kyosho now.

Hope you enjoy your buggy! It's a great performing machine.
