I got my kit yesterday and started the build around 7:30, telling myself I would stop by 11. I ended up calling it a night at 12:30. So far I've only had a couple of minor issues; both of the shims for the front diff case were folded in half in the package and I stripped the head out of a screw. Fortunately the screw wasn't in very far and I had a few extra. My 3000 wt. diff oil was also very messy as it leaked in the package and got the rest of the fluids sticky. Now I'm counting down until I can get home and finish the build, hopefully in time to go racing tomorrow!

Very nice vid. One thing I suggest is smear a bit of grease on your diff gaskets to help them seal also you should look up Ryan Lutz and Adam Drakes diff building videos. They're very informative

Free shipping even for 1 screw.

And their adds have hot chicks on them, an important consideration in my buying decisions

They also have carbon sheets if you want to try your hand at making your own air control. Pricey, maybe need a buddy or two to go in on it and make a few out of the sheet. Can't see any performance gain... just bling.
Thanks for pointing out that site, the home pg is enough to make an old man nervous if you get my point! LOL

there is a guy at my track using the original BH120 in his scte non lightened version with a castle 4 pole. He has run it that way for 6+ months. So, unless you got one of the "bad" I die instantly esc's it should work. FYI, HK released a 120amp esc that is the same as the BH120 and it think it might come with a warranty. for $35, lol. so if the lt4 dies......

Thank I've been running the lt4 in the tekno for about three weeks with an Orion 4.5t 550 2pole flawlessly. I ran it my losi for about 3 months with the same motor. Hope it up to the task of the 4pole.
