Yes clean it out as much as you can. If you are going with the Slayden setup, just put in what he recommends.

Track looks good Mud Puppy, looks like I will have to bring my RC's with me when I come to visit family/friends in Abbottsford from now on. Wife can visit and I'll go play......:lol: :lol: :lol:

The slipper is the clutch looking unit that the drive shaft connects to. Here are some exploded views.

All the rest:...

Check to make sure that the nut on your slipper is properly tightened, you want it 1/4 to 1/2 turn out from tight. Some times rocks can get in there and loosen the nut.

I don't race yet, club just starting up in this area. But we do have track days and I have a body I use for that and the bashing body...... is now fully sponsored by Duct Tape :lol:

+1 on the conversion and running 2.2's. These are the wheels I have been running on mine and my sons Rusty's.

You could wait till sept 20, then the new Tekin SC4X motors are suppose to be released. As for the ESC's, I have been using the MM pro and am very happy with it.

If you want to replace shock towers an A-arms go RPM. I personally stay away from integy, have found them to be of poor quality. And get the KingHeadz mount, this will solve alot of the bearing...

This is the best mod you will ever do. I couldn't run for more than an hour without seizing a bearing, but now I have run 20 - 30 packs through and not a problem yet.

Most plumbing/hardware store should have them.

I use a small viton o-ring and it is working well so far.

Tekin is also a great motor option. The new SC4X is delayed but should be out by the end of the month....... I hope.

Glad I have mine already if they are discontinuing them. And I just bought another PE roller (new) off Ebay for $130 for my son. My LHS has been back ordered for awhile and now it doesn't sound like...

On the throttle = nose up, Brake = nose down. Then it is just finding that balance of how much of either affects your truck. Practice, practice, practice!

That looks sweet. I was going to do this mod to my own alum mount, nice to know someone is starting to build them

Thanks for the replys, I thought it was going to be a little small. I guess I will drop the wp VXL esc from my new Slash 4x4 into his car (I have a MMP/Novak 5.5 coming for the Slash). I am running a...

My son's VXL esc crapped out and we were looking for a decent replacement. The LHS said the 35a ezrun would be great for his Rusty. He is running a Tekin 448 motor on 2s 28c 6000ma batteries. Is this...

I am running a CC mmp and a Tekin 448 motor. If I do ever happen to burn this thing up I would buy another one for sure, the Tekin motor is awesome IMO.

Not yet, I haven't really talked to anyone about gearing yet. I think there are some other guys on here with the same combo, maybe they can help out. I'll find in about a week.

I just ordered a MMP and a ballistic 5.5T motor for my new Slash. I have seen some guys running this combo and they are very happy with it.

IMO STRC builds quality parts, I have never had an issue with any of their parts on my RC's. I would stay away from alum A arms though. If you do bend one, they are done. Or they will take the abuse...

I agree with your rant rjames. I have been in this for 1 year now and have so much to learn and questions to ask, but I too have gotten the "try doing a search" answer. What was that saying.... "If...

Thanks :cool:

Slaydaddy, great info and thanks for sharing. I am going to try your setup but I have a MMM/2650 combo in my truck. What if anything should I be looking at changing...... springs, diff wt?

BTW,...

I may have to try the new GT5, but for right now I'm still a huge fan of ForzaMotorSport 3.
