As i said. The truggy had been delivered to local shop an i picked it up today
![]() see below what i got up to today. I started be re building diffs and adding some je spares steel screws. Originals where black posi drive ones. Pain in the arse using them if you ask me. There was an artical in racer this month about the truggy and it did mention diffs and what oils so i followed suit. rear diff is simlar to losi rear diff. has the same side spindle to center drive shafts. |

next step was front diff/sus and shocks.. Shocks are same size as the losi 8 ones. Also for front shock you get a stand off with a built in top of shock cover. Save them unwanted scratches i supose. With this fitted tho there isn't any move ment or play at the top of the shock. Its not really free to do what it likes. look good in green tho. Supose you could fit normal losi 8 shock on as a hop up, as the shocks are not threaded.
The centre diff and housing fit together easy enough. Nothing so far has needed to be drilled out or filed. As i fitted the fuel tank there seems to be alot of free space under the tank its self. You can fit a fingre in there easy. The mounting post arent that cleaver. But i'm sure sorcing the posts from another car wouldn't be a problem. Possibly use a more slinky fuel tank to get centre of gravity lower. other than that for 135 quid this kits seems to be quite awsome.. more pics as i build over next few nights.......longs our first unborn baby doesn't come in the mean time lol |
