To all with the diff issues on the 210. Have u measured your thrust washers? One is smaller diameter than the other. The smaller one goes in the out drive with the groove facing diff gear then the caged washer then the larger thrust washer with groove facing the caged thrust balls. I just helped a friend build his first ball diff and it turned out like butter. Might have to sell the 22 after looking at his car. For the slipper issues make sure you cleaned the slipper hubs with motor spray as any oil on them will let it slip. If they have slipped a lot you can sand lightly the slipper pads with 400 grit sandpaper to get rid of the glazing and reassemble.

I made it to the track Saturday,had a quick club race then practiced for about 10 hours.I can easily say I'm happy about the car change I made.
The only issue I had was the ballcups but that is now sorted out using Kyosho studs and cups.
I still have a few tweaks I want to try but the car is really good as it sits now.
The track was medium grip clay and I had all the traction I needed even when the track was dry.
The car would just squat and launch out of the corner.
High speed steering was smooth and plentiful, low speed steering was crazy.
The car was very smooth and stable, easy to push it hard and not get out of shape.
My set up
Front
1.2x4 ae 30 wt
Stock spring, shock mounted in and in.
Stock camber link locations and ball stud height.
Spindle height centered, block forward and axle 4mm trailing.
20* Caster
Rear
1.3x3 ae 25
Losi Pink Spring, shock mounted in on top and center on arm.
2mm under inner camber ball stud and outer in location #2
1.5* Anti squat
3.5* Toe in
Hubs forward
Battery back
Weight added
21g each rear corner
14g at both front corners of the battery
Tekin Rs/8.5 combo
Dayton

can you comment on the 20* caster and 1.5 kick up? Do you get a lot of steering with the 20* caster and how is you rear traction with the 1.5kickup?
