RE: Redcat Racing Tsunami Thread
does anybody know if there is anything to make the wheels more offset on the tsunami? I bought some wheels but the offset is to close I spent way too much money to have them sit arround.
Ehroof did you get a chance to check out the diffs? There really small holes. And by the way I got the gladiators there sweet!!!!

Get 2 sets of these [link=http://66.226.4.160/itemdetail_part.asp?partno=08064]Stub Axles[/link]and one set of the [link=http://66.226.4.160/itemdetail_part.asp?partno=08065]Wheel Hex's[/link]and that will give you another 1/2 inch of off set. You will need grub screws for the hex's.........2 each so 8 grub screws.............works very well and is solid mod

Those are not vent holes in pic 3. They are for a sway bar and those are the screw holes for teh swaybar mount. You can plug those Just find some short screws to fit.

RE: Redcat Racing Tsunami Thread
Has any one ever had a problem with the single speed direct drive gear being off round? I got one brand new and I cant use it, the spur gear is so out of round that when its mounted the gear mesh gets so tight that it wont turn then half a turn the other way there is too much play in the gears.

tell whoever you got it from and see if they will replace it, i peronally havent had one out of round but anything is possible, i have had them wobble but not out of round.

RE: Redcat Racing Tsunami Thread
here's a picture of my tsunami and volcano stx with the rustler rims, these are the older style nitro rustler rears, the new style will work too. on the tsunami i had to do a little trimming on the ribs of the rim but it wasnt that big of a deal.
