The posts for the T4 have been light because the truck class is a dying class replaced by SC.

I agree this class has been dying off, but we have a few local tracks in our area where the class is picking back up again. Crazy!

We also have it picking back up here in Southern California. The class is doing well. I think the people that drive one after an SC remember how awesome they are again.

I'm not opposed to this, would be good to have spares anyway, but this is out of stock at my LHS as well as both of the suppliers they use, and most of the places I typically order from online are on backorder as well (tower and stormer mainly - amain has them but they won't get here in time for me to race next weekend). Is there something I could use in the mean time to get me by?

part# 7381 has all the pins and set screws.

Thanks. The first coat was metallic red and it was very, very light with lots of open areas. Then I went over it with a light coat of indy silver, then red again and backed it all up with the silver. I'm not very artistic and can't do those fancy multi-colored paint jobs like most can. And I like a lot of stickers. Thats pretty much my trade mark since 93.

If I pull the shock shafts out of the shock to install limiter spacers, do I need to replace the o-rings?

Not necessarily. If their old you might as well while your there and I would suggest the MIP blue ones and use AE green slime during installation.

But be careful pulling the shock shaft through the o rings as the e-clip grooves have pretty sharp edges.

SC10 Gear Differential

Tower Hobbies listed the SC10 gear diff as optional parts for the B4/T4, is this a true?

The SC10 gear diff will fit in the T4.1 and B4.1 trans cases only. The original T4 and B4 trans cases are different.

No ball diff that's outstanding, do you still have to play with "slipper" if using a gear diff? Being able to use a gear diff I'm placing my order.
