My 2015 XB4 keeps getting better! Running the shorty and center diff with 100k. I have no issues with forward bite using 100k. I've read a few guys wanting to go higher than 100k to be able to clear some of their bigger jumps but that is not my experience thus far. Last night I was consistently hitting a triple located immediately after a sharp 90 deg turn; a jump I previously would just double-single. The center diff for me on clay is infinitely better than the slipper! I Love this wheeler!
Nevermind I saw you post it down the page a bit. The funny thing is I'm running the same setup, 8k/100k/5k with orion r10.1 pro and orions vst2 6.5t with some timing and turbo but still not able to clear the quad that some other drivers were able to clear. I guess I'll try some more timing and see if it helps

What kind of gearing should I start with for a 7.5 motor in my '15? It's a medium sized indoor clay track.

what front and rear diff oils are you using with the 100k center diff. Also what motor and esc and esc profile if u know?

I run 22/81 with my Reedy Sonic Mach 2 7.5. I've been running on a med/large indoor clay track. I could probably go up a tooth on the pinion if I really wanted as my motor and ESC temps are only in the 130-140 deg range.

Well '15 is built short of a center diff.
'14 was a dream to build with the best instructions I've seen put in a box.
Attempting to build the new car in shorty configuration What a pain in the ass, unnecessarily complicated mistake ladened waste of paper.
The bad: Base setup calls for no sway bars F/R? Springs in the kit don't match the setup sheet. Still the same junk pistons and weak shock O-rings.
The good: Still amazing Xray quality in everything else.
The yet to be seen: Some serious rollcenter changes from the '14 car, weight loss and center diff action...

You guys with the 2015 should take a look at your rear toe block. I could see mine was off by eye and confirmed it with calipers. A friend of mine is building his 2015 and his is off too. I sent an email to rc america and they're looking into it.

Interesting...I'm building mines now and will have to check tonight...
On another note...the instruction manual is very lacking in my opinion...especially if you are building for a shorty pack.
Also, a few of my ball cups fit way too snug and don't move freely. Had to pop them off and on a couple of times to get them to free up a little bit. Anyone have the same issue?
