i hate the price of everything. i also hate doing after run

today was a good and bad day. i got my new parts for my next (full front and rear diff rebuild) and it took 4hours! first the pinions didnt come with screws, so i had to find some, then i put in the front diff backwards the first time, then the c-clip was missing in action and i made a new one with a giant c-clip, then the out drive gets ruined, then i replace that, end up putting it backwards (again) then i had to re fill the diff again, then the shock blew out, so i fixed that and i put bump stops in, then it came out of adjustment and took 30minuts to tune again.

damn that was a pain!

shocks in my opinion, are the eaisest things to fix. once you learn how to work with e-clips, they snap right back togather.

I gotta agree with bearings. I have duratrax's crummy "teflon" sealed bearing in my m03. As much as the teflons seals work, they might as well be paper. I ran it in dirt once and they're scarred for life. I cleaned them out twice and still they make a grinding noise when spun.

going to see whats wrong with my rc and thres a wire pulled out and i have to resolder it and it will just end up coming out again! oh and the trx 2.5 if you purchase a car with a trx 2.5 make sure you have something to throw it at when you find out you CANNOT tune them![:'(] oh and my family telling me theyre *big boys toys* and theyre a waste of money and all they do is break and a waste of money i have recorded on my phone me saying * i know* and i play it every time they lexure me about them! ha parents.

I was going to say shocks, slipper clutch adjustment.. but somebody reminded me of the awful ball cups and e-clip removals.. I have now actually bought a tool which should make popping out ball cups easier.. I have not tested it yet though.

Cutting out a body.

E-Clips.... the very bain of my RC existance!!!
Even with tweezers you still need to build a bunker around your RC to stop them shooting off into the horizon where they will never be seen again!!

diffs and tires

i use a small screwdriver and put it pointed twoars the table or under a cloth, i get it right in the space where the middle part is on the pin and press fast and streight. those are my favorites to remove

but yeah, ball in socket joints suck, ecspecially when you split the cup[:@]

in no specific order:

e-clips
gettin a new yoke to "snap in" over the metal balls' pins...
cleaning i hate the most though

I hate carrying broken cars back to my vehicle. []

I put other. Working all of the suspension, mostly front end (had my first nasty crash...sooo many parts to fix!), is what bugs me most, especially when you think you have everything right, put it all back together, and some little simple part is in upside down and it doesnt work right, so you have to take EVERYTHING back in again.

also paying for stuff...dog-walking money doesn't cover too much in this hobby.

WAIT WAIT SO UR CLEANING UR CAR WITh A HOSE ???

steering i hate trying to figure out steering

The new Emaxx doesnt mine being hosed off.

i hate trying to find and salvage all of the little pieces that go flying when i crash...

and i hate paying top dollar for an inferior product.
