The Bornhorst setup uses pink front springs, not the black. With the black springs I can get 28mm of front ride height with the spring adjuster all the way down to the bottom of the threads. With the stiffer pink springs, the adjusters sit about 3-4mm further up the threads for the same ride height.

PT Oils are a brand of oil. They sell both diff and shock oil.

PT racing oil. It's thinner than most other brands so take that into account. For example 7-7-3 in PT oil is closer to 10-10-5 in AE oil.

anyone have some time in w/ the universals? Seems like it will be a lot harder to clean with the inner bearing so far in the hub, leaving a lot more space for build up? Or does it stay pretty clear/clean?

Thinking of ordering a eb48.3, I was set on an eb48sl but I am leaning towards the .3 now. I am new to electric other than a 410.3 I just bought for the kids but I have kinda taken over. I was gonna go with the eb48sl so I could stay with the 2s batteries I had for the 410.3 but it seems as though a 4s system is the way to go with a buggy. My question is, will a hobbywing sct pro combo with the 2250 motor be enough to power a full sized 48.3. I will probably be ordering everything from fierce rc is the reason I'm curious about this combo

On 4S buggy systems, most will run the XR8 and a 1900 to 2100 motor.

PT told me Mugen visosity is about the same as theirs. However, I just runt the PT so I know I'm comparing apples to apples when looking at the team setups.

couple months and they seem fine, the bearing is deeper in the carrier so its protected better from the elements. I blew out at least four outer bearings in half the time ive ran since the swap, tekno did seem to have a bad run of bearings but to me it is better
