Rusty, I'm glad your CVDs are holding up. Now that you mentioned the slipper clutch, that was probably my issue. I was running both Evaders with locked slippers on a carpet track with jumps. That...

On those pinion set screws, make sure you are using the right size driver. I've made this mistake many times and stripped out the drive on the screw head. Then I found out that most of my pinion set...

Ok, I have an update on the CVDs....

I'm pretty sure its not bad luck since it happened twice. I bought two sets, one for each Evader. I take my youngest sister (she's 13) to the track and she...

Yes! I bought two sets for my Evaders. They showed up today and by the looks, they are serious! They use a solid pin that has a retaining-set screw, just like MIP drive shafts. They are super smooth....

Did pretty good at Tower Hobbies, these discounts are awesome! Although, last week some parts like the BL Wheelie Bar and the EXT Driveshafts were price cut too. But when I went to order on Sunday,...

Slick deal with the 8.2e shims! It's good to know that those work on the BL diff.

Ah, I was getting those ST rear axle washers confused with the front axle washers that come in DTXC6170. So...

Wait, where in the hell did you get 0.12mm washers?! That's like 0.0047"! I run 0.011" shims behind my sun gears and had to reshim my diff about two years ago. I'm pretty sure I just added another...

I usually end up using a pair of pliers on those rolled spring pins. I have also used a vise, but with little luck. I imagine it wouldn't be too hard to make a cool tool that would work with a vise,...

Getting the metal differential gear DTXC7453 might be a problem. Those are pretty rare now, but are still out there. They were discontinued last year.

That's very odd. For your motor guard to not line up, there would have to be something wrong with how the gearbox is mounted to the rear chassis plate, or if the case itself is tweaked somehow. The...

Yikes! Yeah, that Pro chassis plate is really rare, and those mounts and just as rare, if not more so. lol I've been running the Brushless chassis plates with the DTX wheelie bar. Great setup, but...

Yeah, I saw that one on eBay when I was looking for the BL diff. I agree that it's way overpriced (it's only like $45-50 if built in parts, bearings and hardware included) but I have heard the same...

Yeah, no doubt that 3400kv really rips those 5" Badlands.

I actually use the cheapest option, DTXC8270, because it looks like the same part. The part key # is the same (#96) but the 8274 that you...

Thanks Rusty, but man I wish they took PayPal. That's kind of a deal breaker for me. I saw Sears had them for sale too, but I'd have to pay a few dollars more. I'm gonna call my LHS and see what he...

I've always wanted to take my Evader to track. Might get a chance soon since a church in town has decided to rope off a section of lawn and put in a half-legit track. Nothing spec, but it's...

I'm with Rob on the radio thing, a single lipo cell (4.2v fully charged) just isn't enough. Get the GT2 or GT3B for sure. If you want lipo instead of changing out 8 AA batteries every other month,...
