I went with a 6-32 at 1" long. Had to drill out the hole one size to get it to fit.

Well the locked rear diff was acting up and sure enough when i opened it up the screws had backed out. but some locktite on them and resealed with grease.

I was browsing some ads and saw this beautiful paint scheme on a CC01.

Hey red, hows the CC-01 working out for you? Has it been worth the money or do you feel going with something else would have been better? I'm asking cause I'm looking at getting one for a wrangler build. Looking at what I would need to do to make it perform at it's best. Any tips or info?
Thanks.

To tell the truth I have only ran it 5 times since I built it, it looks great but the stock tires and low ground clearance make for a poor offroad truck. i think the CR-01 would be much better.

I think that those tires are really killing your performance, they look good for onroad driving, but horrible offroad tires. Better tires(like rc4wd), would likely make a big difference in traction and clearance.

Yeah you are right, the stockers are hard rubber.

Yeah I wondered about the clearance but man do they look scale. Hard trade off really.

If you pack the rear diff with Tamiya's AW grease, you get a nice limited slip diff feeling in it. That grease is so thick!
