I am curious. after how many runs do you guys give this truck new diff cases?
couse they do tend to wear out pretty fast and the result is wobbely outdrives
all the internals do not have any sign of wear on them . just the litte brass like metal hole in the diff cases. it seems that the material they choose is to soft

Got my new slipper pads (as well as shock pistons) in today from Mantis...
I haven't had a chance to really test out the Mantis slipper pads at the track to see how they perform, I will hopefully get to tomorrow or no later then Sunday at the track. I will try to put at least 5+ packs into it in one day and see how they hold up then. The clutch basket works great and is far better then just using the stock setup, but I want to see how these new pads hold up and I will post my review after some good test runs around the track etc.........
My motor/esc setup is:
Tekin RX8 with Tekin Pro4 4000kv motor, and gearing at 14/62 (may try 15/62 or 16/60 etc)

Interesting, I too just started having this gear issue since I put the 3800 in my truck with a clutch basket. I even backed off the brakes and slippers. I stripped another right before I left the track. I think the 3800 has tremendous braking power, this and a very grippy slipper system certainly seem suspect to me.
