    MIP X-Duty question after install.......

    So I finally twisted thru my rear CVDs and replaced just the rears (budget) with the MIP X dutys which seem solid, but my problem now is that I cannot get on the throttle without it wheelie-ing all the way down the road, and while I know I need to adjust my slipper clutch before, it did not do this with my older shafts......

    I run 3S lipos, stock velineon, and still have the stock CVDs upfront.....would just the switch make such a dramatic response in tourque since there is absolutely no give now? I have switched nothing else, but am wondering if just the switch to metal shafts would cause this dramatic of a change, and if I add the front MIP X Dutys, will it correct itself?

    It is all in your slipper. If you have changed nothing else loosen your slipper. Fronts won't help even it out. I hope you used a thread locker when you installed them. Loosen the clutch and go have fun

    You need to use a thread locker on the screws. Just ne sure to be careful not to get it on moving parts.

    It comes with the yokes, it replaces everything from the diff output to the wheel, and you wanna use the locktite on all the grub screws. Make sure you line it up as best you can on the diff outputs. That should be your last step. I dont think the mip's are needed up front w/ the velineon system.
