Fuel tubing does work. Not the same as the bushings, but does work. Your right tho, it was in the 410 thread. I do know that the 8ight bushing do not work. Little too sloppy in the eye on the shock cap for my liking. We just switched track location and got some new dirt. We are running a lot more clay this time. The last track was just dirt and some sand. Really ate the bushings up. Hope this time around i get a lot more life out of them.

Are the shock towers interchangeable between the SCT 410 and EB48? Xtreme Racing has some CF towers for the SCT 410 but not the EB 48. Each tower is 10g lighter than stock. I need to offset the additional weight from adding Traktion drive and mechanical brakes.

small problem:
my buggy seems to have some torque steer at low speed acceleration.
*it goes straight when I accelerate slowly or keep a constant speed, but when I punch throttle, the car will turn right a bit.
it's especially bad on loose dirt. before taking a jump.
Any idea how to deal with that?

Complete Front/Rear Differential still "out of stock"
Do you have an ETA ?

How were your temps and run time? Bashing or on a track? I was considering a 3S setup too.

check your servo connection. im having to run an extension on mine, and the exstension was loose causing this issue.

Josh Knight TQ's RC Pro series yesterday with the EB48 at Awesome RC. His servo decided to part ways in A2 but the car was dialed all day.

Just to confirm, are these the shock parts everyone is talking about?

KYOIFW405-138 - 1.3x8 piston holes

Front spring, which one?
KYOIF350-714 - Kyosho 70mm Big Bore Front Shock Spring (Light Blue) (2) <--- Assume this one
KYOIS106-814 - Kyosho 84mm Big Bore Medium Length Shock Spring (Light Blue) (2)

Rear spring, which one?
KYOIS106-8514 - Kyosho 84mm Big Bore Medium Length Shock Spring (Orange) (2) <--- Assume this one
KYOIF336-1716 - Kyosho 98mm Long Rear Shock Spring (Orange/17-1.6)

It's probably not torque steer you are experiencing, it's just the car breaking traction. The are a few things you can try,
-raise anti-squat
-move the rear hubs forward
-try a stiffer rear spring (if you're currently running the kit stock yellows)
-try an overall lower ride height

No ETA at this time, and there's not ETA on when we'll have an ETA, so if you were waiting to order these to make another diff, I would suggest on ordering the parts you need separately.

Not sure I understand the need for the Kyosho shock parts. I find the tekno shocks work well, Just sayin.

Seems to be the "default" upgrade, but I plan to try stock from first myself.

i just built my eb48 to go with my sct410 over the last few nights, and it had the same diff gears/cross pins as my sct410 as well as a stiffer servo saver spring. the diffs were extremly smooth even with out breaking them in
