nice pics! those are some clean rides.
i never realized how big the e-revo is!

there was an aftershock 8e and several nitro version 3.5 owners who have had the diff pinions fail.
it is recommended that you open the diff, shim it if needed, and add some grease. that will prevent any problems.
enjoy!
Yep, the E-Revo is a beast!

Do you know what to use to shim the diff?

I will do that. Anyway it's winter here and since it is not waterproof it will stay inside my house until summer.

Got plenty of time to modify it!
