Im begining to get really pissed at Losi. they have finally fixed there plastics but now all there metals are wearing really quick

ive already had to replace driveshaft pins, axles, cvd coupler pins, cvd pins, and now the shims are wearing out in the diffs
i never once had to replace a shim in the diff of my old cars and no body i have spoken to has ever had to replace the diff shims in any other brand car.
I have to agree with you there bud

My driveshaft pins are looking decidedly worn. 3 months use in this car and i'm seeing wear that would have took 12 months in the old car.

I really love driving the losi, but a couple of times this week, I seriously thought, why don't I get rid and buy a MBX6T as this diff problem is really peeing me off.
Hopefully picking up new shafts and gears today, so we'll see if that cures it.
