Hello,
So this is the first kit I have bought new and assembled. Not only am I missing some minor hardware, I am unsure where a brass o-ring/bearing goes, I also have 4 rubber o-rings/seals that I think go with the shocks, they look kinda like the rubber rings that go on the sc10 threaded shock bodies inside the adjustable thread ring for the springs -are they extra parts or where do they go?- , but I am mostly confused about the diffs.
I emptied the diffs and packed them with 10k(front) 5k(rear) Mugen diff oil . I packed them though almost to the brim, they seem extraordinarily stiff.... was I suppose to just coat them?
Thanks a ton in advance for any advice.

You did the diffs correctly.

So can I at our club races, but that is not saying much because I can blow
by the same Losi's with my 2wd Kyosho SC-R. So you saying what your
saying proves nothing about the Losi not being a better out of the box truck
then the AE.
But then again you already knew that" LOL"

Have you tried the stock 20t front pulley? I ran for two days with the stocker, switched over to the 19 for two battery packs, HATED IT! It made the back of the truck come around even more. pulled off the track, made the swap back to the 20t, right back on the track with no other adjustments, back of truck was way more stable entering high speed corners.
Tried 100k front diff fluid, really stable, but at the expense of slow infield switchback type turns (obviously)! Going to try 80k next. I've tried 5k, 10k, 30k, and 120k..30k seems best so far.

I already tried ride height and from 25-45 wt oil (5wt intervals both front and rear) happiest with 30 in the front and 25 in the rear. must be something interal binding the rear. I also went to the 1.3 pistons. will know more tonight.
even with the bouncing, I'm beating both the regular jammins and having a tight race with a good durango.

im suprised he can hack a losi scte considering the truck is about a pound lighter, he must be pro at that then.
