  • Aaahhh, RC. One of the only hobbies you can watch another man grease his shaft and not feel wrong about it.

    Thinking about getting a Trx. I wanna make sure it’s good to drive before taking it out!!
  • Oh I understand now...I use rubber washers, they can flex and move with your axle and at the same time, they seal the diff that little bit more. Its because my kit doesn't come stock with them C clips.

    Johnny, you font of all knowledge you, after installing a boomracing overdrive kit into my boomracing ar44 (front) axle on my 10.2, the diff snags and catches when going forwards downhill. Smooth as silk uphill and on the level. A shimming issue do you think? There is a little play on the shaft but there was before the overdrive went in, so I left it be.
