Part of the fun.

I go thicker oil. Less mess then piston change.

The biggest wear is hitting stuff. Yes you are crazy. 17 pinion on a 19 turn, I see smoke in your future. Assemble with bearings, Stock 27 turn, Stock pinion, and a lipo. Drive and Enjoy.

I hate to shorten esc wires. Lots of times need to move it and wires are short.

Move the mounting point of the linkage closer to the pivot point. Hole closer to the center of the arm.

Use the halves of the box as a build tray. Take the body, Tire parts put aside. Take the top upside down. This is for sub assemblies, Stuff built. The bottom is a parts bin to work out of. Build on a towel. Hit the pot store for some silicone trays. Easy to stack up and move.

Less parts, Easier to machine. The Thorp diff. was like the stock one. The drive cups come in from the outside, Smaller bearing. This the drive one size, Bigger bearing.

Pry tabs up, Do it, Bend back.

If the grease is clean. Why change, Open on a paper plate. Replace this part, put extra case grease on shaft, then bearing.Then reassemble.

Are they cruchey. If they spin smooth. Run them. If Not, Then put in a jar with a solvent. Shake and enjoy. I have used my girls ring cleaner and actone,nailpolish stuff.

Has the same double motor mount it has used for the last 15 years. Look up a kyosho ma102b.

Wrong hole. You are in the top hole. Not the rear hole.

Think of this as plugging into a extension cord. Not a wall socket. I would plug the steering servo into plug for channel one. Then plug in a esc with a 5volt output into channel 2. That should work. The old stuff like that is solid.

I would mod it for a lipo.
