i didnt know someone sold them for cheap, but good news for you im sure. when you replace the gear, pull out all the bearings in the trans, clean them out with motor cleaner, lighly oil and leave the seals off. less resistance=lower motor temps and more acceleration.

I hear all the pros are running the straight axle rear pod from the RC125.2 onroad car in their 17.5 buggies. Even quicker acceleration and mad top end.

I finally got, my B4.2 so dialed on indoor clay today it was ridiculous! Running a center line setup with shortie lipo. So fast and precise it's like a precision instrument. To compensate for the short lipo I switched to green rear springs and brown fronts, AE tapered machined 3 hole 1.4's pistons with 30wt in all the shocks. 10g per side in front of the valleys and 10g under front shock tower and FT ballast, MC rear ions and M4 front ions on DE speed line wheels. B4.2 blew me away today and competition was fierce for a practice day.

Since I just tighten my slipper up all the way have been wanting to give this slipper eliminator a try also. Even less rotating mass.

You remove the stock pin out of the transmission side of the CVA and insert the plastic piece with the inner metal pin. This keeps you from wearing out your expensive aluminum out drives and instead just wears out the plastic on the cushion.

K. Thanks. I didn't know the CVA pins were removable.
