just broke in the team infinity 18s engine in my mt2 and so far it seems awsome and it isnt tuned yet !! cant wait to get it tuned properly it will be great im just a bit unsure about the lifetime of this engine!!

WELL DONE 46U!!

well i have not been in this thread for a while. hows everyones mt/mt2's?. I got myself a new little toy!...and little it is.

The biggest advantages of having silicone filled differentials are in racing. You can tune your truck to have more turn-in or push. With thick silicone fluid in the front differential action slow down, givin you more turn-in when entering corners and less wheel unloading when exiting corners with a medium weight fluid in the rear differential.
The MT2 diffs are not rally meant to be sealed and if you are not racing it is not worth the headaches because all diffs will leak somewhat. You can almost get the same effects with springs, but without all of the maintenance.
This is what seems to work for me:
1. Remove diff from axle housing. Make alignment marks on the 38tooth metal final gear and the plastic diff housing.
2. Disassemble differential assembly and clean out all of the grease. Especially the raised portion of the metal final gear 86336b that has the 4 bolt holes in it. Also do the same to the joining oedge of the plastic diff housing.
3. Put a light to medium coat of silicone gasket maker (I use Permatex Hi temp RTV Red) only on the raised portion with the four bolt hole in it of the metal final gear. Make sure you don't get any on the gears/ring groove or in the recess that the bevel diff gear sits in. (Let dry.)
4. Reassemble diff by placing two red rubber O rings 6823 instead one like the manual says on the outside of metal 38t final gear and outside of the plastic diff housing. Also place one rubber o ring 6823 on the insied of the 38t metal final gear under the beveld diff gear. You will see that there is a groove for it. Do the same thing for the plastic diff housing. So you will need a total of 6 of these 6823 rubber o rings (make sure you grease thes o rings with silicone grease or oil before putting them on.)
5. Put all of the bevelled diff gears. washers and e clips in. Fill with silicne diff fluid about 1/2 to 2/3 from the top of diff housing. Put a light coat of gasket maker around the top of the plastic diff housing. Connect the 38t metal final gear to plastic diff housing with the four screws. Make sure the screws are tight and the silicone fluid doesn't overflow!

The diffs will be tight at first so work them by hand to makesure everything is working smoothly. It will take a little bit of driving before the diff completely loosens.

I use the spring kits HPI makes for tuning the diffs. Not as good as oil but work fine when I raced my MT last year.

hey guyz i just got my trucks back out the past few days i missed it so much my mt2 is great with the os cvr 18.but my tmaxx 3.3 spanped a drive shaft trying to climb a crub lol

science - D
english - C
gym - A
hystory - B
spanish - F ( i hate spanish with all my life.. seriously )
math - C
crafts - C

im studying like crazy to get my grades up [] ohh and i wil FINALLY get my glow plug this weekend ( hopefully ) then it is time to beat the hell out of my mt2 for making me suffer and cry

man what grade are you in ? Crafts come on. Spanish cant be that bad

ok the crafts was a mistake the board of education made.. i signed up for power mechanics and first at the beginning of the year the for somereason put me in BSI reading. i went to the guidance office and said i passed out of the class last year. then they put me in band. i said i never signed up for it. then they put me in library study and i go back and say i want a launguage class. then they call me down to the guidance office and just put me in crafts and say i dont have a choice anymore. i said u screwed up my schedual and they say " o well " and i have been in that dreaded class ever since. im a freshmen at high school

damn that sux i did nothing in high school and i got straight As, now college is a different story, lol

LOL man that really sucks the big one. I did nothing in school and i still got through but crafts thats what they could come up with damn

yea lol i think the fort lee board of ed is kinda stupid. when i passed out of middle school last year they spelled my name wrong the the cerificate. instead of christian they put in christine -_-

DAMN!! i just won a losi micro t off ebay for $40, pretty sweet deal

ill say
i wish i saw that ad
on ebay[]
lol

nice find dude

dude there are plenty of them just go to ebay put in micro t and find one for cheap that is ending soon and in the last 10 or 15 minutes of the auction you have to watch it very closely and when there is like one minute left make your bid, i only had to do this like 3 times before i won one under $50, i never bid over 50 cause i wanted to get a good deal.. good luck

if you havent noticed im pretty ebay obsessed, i love buying and selling on ebay, i dont think i have ever bought anything online that wasnt on ebay, lol

hey long island think i got tht problem can u explain how the clutch bell works my mt moves like the clutch is slipping the bell is very loose

inside the cb there is a clutch that seperates when rotational pull from the engine is applied, most likely the problem is the slipper clutch is too loose so all you have to do is tighten it a bit, but not too much

does anyone know whether this will work on an original mt
