Only problems were a broken bell-crank (stupid straights should be longer... ) and my diff would NOT stop barking at me!! I kept tightening it, and changing it, and no matter what I did, it just hated on me like the neighbor's dog I'll have a chance to tear her apart tomorrow though..
Did you get a chance to read my diff paper...http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...s-opinion.htmlGood Luck

Yeah, I was reading it. But in between heats and turn marshaling and phone calls home, I couldn't adjust it enough :/ It was LOADS better by my final A main (shaved 5 seconds off my best qualifier) but I could still hear it burp at me from complete stops. I'll be able to rebuild everything and set it before I go out racing again. That article of your really helps You did a nice job on it!

So I see all of this stuff about using Kyosho/Durango springs on their buggies, Is anyone changing the springs on their T4's?

Just switched my Ae silver rears for blue K spring on my Sc-10, testing for a few races to see how they perform ...

What are you guys doing on the upper spring adjuster to hold the top of the spring when using the K-springs?
