Thumbs up SOme more R3 details

OK I have hear the 1st bit of info from my friend that went to the show today..

1st) No more PAL drive system required
2nd) the motor mount and upper deck are now together just like the SD or the evoIII pro4 ect ect
3rd)The carbon has been updated to some super cool / strong $h!t the Chassis now has a Rainbow effect to it kind of like color change paint way cool
4th) They have done a slite mod to the stabilizer mount to make it more smooth and for better access..

thats all I know for now...but the chassis seems to be a bit stronger..and I take some pic`s after I go on Sunday

Default Quick Diff question

Currently without my 'Cuda as I have just moved countries but t should be with me at the weekend The track I'm going to be doing a lot of racing on in the UK is very tight so I was going to try a diff in the front.

I got the diff and was going to put it together ready to slot in, but which way should it be built? ie which side of the pulley does the long outdrive go on and which the short? A pic would help.

Cheers

paulc- I'll PM you some of the larger ones, where you go depends on what you want though.

JohnA- the diff goes together the same as the rear one, long diff half on the side of the teeth on the gear. You just install it with the gear on the left hand side, like the one way.

Well they're pretty simple, you will want to make sure you don't put the diff screw in the wrong side Put it in through the short side, otherwise you'll be on here asking why you've got no cvd clearance on one side
