smart diffs
thanks bogi thats what i needed!!! but they dont offer a rear diff assy. does anyone know why??? IM ASSUMING THAT ITS NOT NEEDED??
#8074
you would not want a rear smart diff as when you applied the power out of a corner it would lock up the rear end and cause a Spin out.......the concept of these diffs have been around a Long time..this is just losi's version of them...most racer's would not benefit from one of these imo.

I don't have a Sirio, but on mine (and many others I've seen), it does help to angle the carb a bit. The linkage needs to pull straight out relative to the carb. So the linkage needs to be lined up straight with the carb. As long as the linkage is at the same (or very close) angle as the carb, it should slide without binding.

Interesting to see you're using a flywheel/clutch bell and a brake servo. I guess you didn't like the braking provided by the motor and ESC?

Just ordered a new clutch nut and hardware set for my 8B(par no. LOSA9103, amain link: http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/7953.
Question: it came with two white silicone/rubber o rings, what are they for? When i originally built my kit these were not included.
