I much prefer the forums, it's a shame so many people have gone to FB for this stuff. It all gets lost in the shuffle.....

Nice one....just realized who you were when I saw the truck...lol. I'm sure you'll know who I am by this.....

Got the old truck back up and running, didn't have a good condition MSC to use so I had to opt for a HW 880. I've installed a 25kg servo, slightly larger servo horn and running it with a Flysky GT5. The truck has bearings, but the rest is all stock still.

Hard anodized aluminum pinions is what we use for racing (64p and 48p). You get the best performance with a lightweight pinion (most noticeable in stock classes, like 1/10 buggy) and you get the best durability from a hard anodized one. I typically run CRC pinions for the pan cars, touring cars and usually TLR for my 1/10 off road stuff.

A pic from Sunday's run!

Actually just set the Pershing there for photos...lol. No way I would run that one in the mud like that lol.

Did a little Jugg transmission work last week. I ended up replacing the entire transmission housing, the original had some cracks in the screw holes from being over tightened. While I was in there, I installed all new gears and bearings (why not). I am waiting on a new shaft for the main spur gear, it looks like it might be a Jugg 1 shaft, it's not quite long enough to go into the other case half all the way and is not threaded to install the heat sink on the gearcase.
