get this one, you can use the spring and shoes and they are racing grade so they will last a while, dennis should get back to you, he has the clutch bell and 17/22 pinions, i got them from him.

RE: Need help with parts for lightning
well either way, there not racing shoes. i have the same looking shoes in my volcano and they are from redcat, anyways their stock traxxas 4146 shoes and springs, and you cant use the shoes since they are actually to small and the spring is too loose. you need the 4146x spring, its the higher stall spring and you still can only use the spring, not the shoes.

Oh see there you go again, assuming you know everything. The pic is of traxxas shoes, but the actual shoes aren't traxxas shoes. We simply picked a picture since there was none available and since were moving to a building I don't have time to mess around taking pictures and uploading them. I guess you must know everything.

RE: Need help with parts for lightning
lets just try and help people out. Thats what this forum is all about. I have an idea, we need to have an event. Not a race. Just a frustration demolition. Bring your best car, all your anger, and lets take it out on the redcats lol..

RE: Need help with parts for lightning
Uh, what trap. Ehroof you can around saying whatever you want about me. Say I'm dishonest whatever you want there big guy. I have alot of customers that would disagree with you. I must not be as bad a guy as you would like to have people believe, 100% satisified customers, never had a one unsatisfied or thought we lied or misslead them in anyway. So you can run around saying whatever you want. There's no trap, there never were traps, you just let your anger take over whenever any one doesn't agree with you or your beliefs and that's the end. You can't stand not being the center of attention, don't feel left out, you are currently the center of attention.
