Just picked up my DESC410R today. A few questions:-

1. I've ordered the Tekin 550 5.5T motor. Can anyone suggest what make/tooth size of 5mm shaft Mod 1 pinions to buy and from where?

2. I like to use Losi shock oils and I was considering 35W front and 30W rear. Would this be a good starting point, or are things somewhat different with big-bore shocks?

3. I was told that some people are swapping the axle hexe's to the larger size (17mm I think), so that they can fit 1/8th scale wheels and tyres and thereby give themselves much more selection. Has anyone done this and what hex fitings have you used? Is this the only thing you would need to change, or do you have to play around with shims etc?

Thanks in advance . . . .
