Were they running it? I did not notice it and Kody did not mention it. I had mine with me but had not installed it yet. Just too much going on.

1. Remove shaft from transmission.
2. Reassemble shaft without belt pulley (see picture in step 4)
3. locate a pin, Perfect size pin for me was the end of a Traxxas hinge pin. find correct size drill bit.
4. I recommend a drill press with a vise. or a very steady hand. Drill hole through the center of the slipper back plate. flat part of slipper disc acts as a guide so it is easy to drill a hole into the round shaft. and this will help you locate the exact position to drill as well.
5. Disassemble, now take slipper disc and notch it so it can slide over pin like a wheel hex. Notch by sanding or grinding the plastic belt pulley so it also slips over pin.
6. cut pin to fit within the square of the slipper disc.
7. Reassamble transmission with pin.
8.Slide pulley on
9. slip disc back in
10. Reassemble and verify that the slipper unit spins without wobbling. if it wobbles. you might need to to grind some material away from the high side to balance it out.
The belt pulley holds pin inside so you never lose it.
You will gain acceleration and braking. more corner entry speed and exit speed. and equal slipper action which makes truck more stable to me.
Sorry for crap pictures/dirty truck. i haven't cleaned it since i raced it Saturday night.

They run an aluminum rack AE made them, for testing I assume. Now that I look at the picture of Kody's truck it kinda looks like he has the stock rack on it now. I think Ryan still runs the aluminum one though.
