He means you should change the clutch bell for one with less teeth (the pinion gear basically), so you don't strain the drivetrain with the larger wheels.

You can just add preload spacers to the shock bodies, that should come with that car.

with the preloads it makes the car a little jumpy in the bumps. What I did is wrap the reciever in foam and just let it bottom out. If you enjoy the hobby you won't be in 1/10 buggy for long. I had my smartech speedy car for about 2 months.
