This is caused by a couple things usually. If the spring gets too old it won't hold tight and lets the diff loosen. If the nut is old it won't stay tight either. If you didn't put the diff back together right it will loosen. It can be easy to put it back together wrong, the pics in the manual are kind of bad and if I remember right might even be mis-labeled.
Careful with loctite, you may not be able to ever get it apart again.

Nope, but the blocks themselves are about five bucks if I remember right.

Got a question for ya Cheech.........
I got the adjustable Rear Toe-in/Anti-Squat today. My question is.........in the event one of the pivot blocks breaks.......is it possible to replace just the pivot blocks??
I have looked but cant seem to find the blocks alone. I'd hate to think that you would have to pay another $27 if one pivot block breaks.

Update on metal diff gear for the Evader St tranny. The guys states they it in brushless set-up with no problems. He currently has 1 left (orginal) he will sell me for $90. I'm not sure I want to spend that. If he can sell 100 he will make more at as lower price. Anyone else interested?

What a joke! I bought three for less then that. On top of that, what kind of guarantee does he have that it will work. Several guys have tried it and had problems with them. On top of that, you guys better plan on having a DSM type radio too. That metal to metal contact of the gears will create some serious glitching!
Buyer beware on this! That is a lot of money for one little gear.

i agree 90 bucks is a bit steep. there was a guy here i forget the name but he also was able to get custom gears made but he was asking like 50 bucks at the time and they didn't even sell.

The $90 was for the last one. How have several tried it and had problems if one was never made? If there is not enough interest then he will not make more and I might buy the last one just to have it.

Others have been made. I can't say his are better or worse or the same. Testing on one rc doesn't mean a lot to me. I have tried metal diff gears. Raz from this forum tried one and a few other guys. All but one had similar results. I don't know why the one guy had good luck with his. I bought his gear from him and it didn't work in mine. So, spend 90 bucks if you want but that is almost a whole new evader ext. Like I said before, you will most likely need to buy a new radio too. I had to move up to a spektrum because of the glitching with my FM radio.

So the metal diff's you guys used was it made for the ST, or was it a metal gear for the B2 diff?

the metal B2 diff gear didnt work, it was not a perfect fit... but if a copy of the evaders diff gear was made it might be a better fit.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.
I have a question about the TBone Racing front bumpers. I am looking for real life experience with the durability between the Delrin, Poly or Nylon materials used for these bumpers? My feeling is to go with Delrin. I think Nylon may be to flexible.
RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.
hey guys, glad to be back. it's definitely been a while. glad to see that the forum is still running. I just want everyone to know that i'm open to any questions. thanks.
RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.
t-bone bumpers are extremely durable. i'd race at a local dirt track and the stock bumper just wouldn't cut it. I was lucky if it didn't break. I then looked into the t-bone and i've used them ever since. it takes some serious bashing to destroy them. it's definitely worth buying.
Another thing I tried is taking the same basic design and cutting it out of a sheet of polycarbonate. (I made a template on auto cad on the computer) it lasted a while but still not as long as the t-bones did. but it is alot cheaper.
hope this helps.

The Lexan should be the strongest, polycarb and delrin are simular. I have run the delrin with no issues. I do alot of plastics machining on CNC and I can say from experiance, the lexan is tough stuff.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.
Well tonight was interesting one of the guys we run rc's with bought a radar gun. I was some what pleased, well sort of. We were doing speed runs down a paved alley way with plenty of room to get up speed but not a whole lot of room to slow down. Running my bx with 4600 sidewinder set up one step up on the timing with a 78 spur and 24 pinion and 7.4 volt 2200 Mah 25c lipo I ran a best of 39mph. It seems faster but thats just my opinion. LOL!! I have a 11.1 5000mah on the way though...... Sure hope it picks up a bunch.

Yeah but I am wanting to eat a traxas rustler vxl. He is running 11.1 4500 3 cell lipo. The fastest we clocked him was 33 mph on his back wheels not at full go. The guy with the radar gun couldn't seem to shot him at speed. So maybe in a week or so when I do get the 3 cell I am challenging him to a large open parking lot near us. [sm=punching.gif] Then maybe I will be satisfied!!
