5LikesSC10 4x4 Thread

I know this because I reassembled after a teardown and installed the spur backwards so the pins were on the leading side, not the correct trailing side of the ball. That means that regardless of how many pins I had in it, zero were having any affect on the balls. I did notice the handling was different, but there was little to no difference on jumps.

After Years of running 1/8 scale (xrays) I'm now giving SC a shoot. I picked up a sc104x4 here on rctech a few weeks back..Been following the thread..Some of it has been helped..I think I'm on the path of a decent setup now..Ran Fast lap at my local club race but made mistakes in the main not the trucks fault..
