I have trouble undoing the FT wheel nuts. If you're not using them they are worth a try. Serrated.

Could give you my truck...


It

It would do you no good , will bet you would do better with your own truck in fact .



There are no short cuts
, no aftermarket parts or motors that will suddenly bring to up to your highest standards....


You need to practice , race & practice some more ....


This is only way you will learn & improve your ability to wheel a Sc10 4x4...

with that said ....

Have you finish switching over to a decent set-up yet ?

If not ? Get busy wrenching ...

HT pad on inside of slipper fixed that well for me, and let me put down more power. do you have the factory team slipper setup also or an aftermarket setup?

what are your diff fluids? how tight is your slipper settings? these are two things that may help alot if adjusted correctly.

definitely need higher fluid in the front diff without cdiff/exotek.

20k front/7k rear with VTS/HT is what i like the most.

i have never seen the stock 1 plate slipper work well enough for this truck.

great investment if you have the 'stock' rtr slipper setup.

Yup! I had that (MTK) but sold it when I got the C-diff. I try higher oil unti lI can get a new spur.
Thanks!
Will 30K work? All I have greater than 10.

it works ok if the motor is low power like a 540 or lots of limiters or over gear and use low end point

im sure 30k would work fine with the 1 plate slipper. it will definitely help pull the front more.

"low power" hah... everyone i know with a 4 pole motor in this LIGHT truck is running less then 80% epa on throttle, so whats the need for these 4 pole motors?

i love the vts with a 550 4.5, which is more then enough motor for this truck in a racing situation imho.

Things I have done to tighten up my SC10 4X4 on throttle exiting the corners, 30,000 fluid in front 80,000 in rear and .5 toe in rear hub carriers from ST racing.

Running on loose dirt.

Lots of things to try

tires
ride height (lower rear)
lighter rear spring, lighter oil & less rear camber..




start with tire & ride height ( 23mm low as you go )
