I believe the newer kits come with yellow/yellow, I know for sure the old kits came with blue/blue.
Most people here are running blue all around or yellow in front and blue rear along with the sway bars, yellow front, blue rear.
I would check the front diff and rear diff to make sure there is fluid in there, a lot of people put 30,000 wt oil in the front and 5,000 wt oil in the rear.
you'll notice with the stock oil the truck will have a lot of grab/almost too much with the stock oil, the heavier weight calms it down a bit.
I would spring for a brushless setup they are pretty cheap, you can get a castle system to get you started. I'm not sure if that brushed system will work or last long I'm sure someone else can comment on that.

Me and a buddy of mine jsut grabbed a pair of sc10 4x4's at a great sale price and have a few questions
Build went quite well with the exception that one manual specified which parts bags to use and one didn't ????? One came with blue fronts and yellow rears for the shock springs the other came blue/blue ???? I am guessing to diffrent age kits
We left everything as stock diff oils shock oils etc.......... didnt want to get into ripping them apart we are in it to have fun not give me a headache lol
The track we will be running on is a very tight very small indoor carpet track that will be changing layout regularly might be slow and bumpy might be fast and flat hard to say the only thing that will never change is its tiny but fun
Are there any mods / changes i should consider right out of the gate like chassis stiffening, I tried to get through as much of the thread as possible but the good info is jsut everywhere and impossible to pin down to a single page it seems
Lastly its going to be a bit before i can grab a brushless setup apparently the kids wants christmas presents blah blah blah............ would i be okay to run this on a brushed 15t double or perhaps a titan 12t jsut in the interm till i get a brushless setup ?

Just food for thought you might want to check out the shocks to make sure the screw on top of the piston is locked down with blue loc-tight. Just dont want you guys running and the shock blow apart like what happened to me

Wheels
Does anyone have a list of wheels that work within ROAR rules. I did a search and all I saw were DE wheels, but that was 400 pages ago, there are some on the first page but how often is that updated? Will by PL Beadlocks and premount split six's work?
