Two things....First, here's a top tip from us racers. Brake cleaner will do a decent job, but it takes forever (as you saw). Naptha will clean the silicone oil out of diffs very quickly. Don't know if you can get it in the UK, but it's available here in the states at any Home Depot or Lowes "big box" store. Second, I'm glad to see M2C getting some recognition outside of the racing community. I live a couple hours away from Mitch, and have had not only the pleasure of running his products on my race buggy and truggy for years now, but also getting to hang out with him at many RC races up and down the east coast. He's a good guy, and makes great products!

I got my Kraton 4s the other day an every single part you recommended to change is exactly wat I needed to change as broke the back a-arm first run out the box but all fixed now and I’m now stuck indoors looking at its beauty and wanting to drive but can’t go out unnecessarily due to the covids 😢😅 love the vids Kev

Love the way he just slams all his stuff around

Soooo enjoyed this video Kev. Great wrenching and showing us all the inside of this 8s beast, what you did with the diffs, and installing the M2C goodness! Appreciate all you do mate!

FYI- The Kraton 8S comes with an upgraded chassis support now.

ThoMz RC yeah it has a very thick brace at the the rear. Like hella thick. And the centre brace is in two now. Much much stronger. Hopefully they do it to the 6s rigs too. That would be friggin epic. They would be like 10x stronger.

@@PeopleDoingStuff I haven't seen that. I had V1 and it bent but I was able to return it. I got V1. 5 about 3 weeks ago and it's still straight as a board, even with crashes that have shattered the A-arms and the wing mount. M2C crusher chassis would be more durable especially because it's shorter, but not a necessity.

The funny part about this chassis swap is that now with the shorter wheelbase chassis, the wheel openings of the stock kraton body actually line up with the wheels! And this longer wrenching vid was exactly what I needed today. THANKS KEV! 👍

Your videos is best😄

Hell yesss! Loved this vid from start to finish. I can’t afford an 8S Kraton but definitely enjoyed the vid!

Hey Kev! Thanks for the vids in this pandemic time.. gets us working on our cars n trucks as a family.

Swear these videos help at this time due to lock down suffer from anxiety and these help a lot to take mind of the current situation cheers Kev 😃

Looking forward to seeing your take on this. RC Dude81 and Duperbash have really enjoyed theirs as you know. Love your stuff man!

A good vid, well done Kevin. Watched the whole clip for once, just realized i like these kinda workbench vids a lot better than the bash vids :)

I love your videos just keep making more

Thank you for your channel and vids I learn and enjoy it very much!

I love you're videos and I always watch your videos

Bad ass job Kevin. Thanks for being being very informative with your upgrades. Steve from Long Island NY, love your You Tube channel.✌

Great video Kevin, enjoy the parts!!

Always enjoy it when your on the spanners kev. It's gonna be a handful with the shorter wheelbase I reckon. Can't wait to see it fly!! Good stuff..

Wow , u give me an inspiration🌟

Like how it turned out brother!! Nice!!

Kev, that K8S looks EPIC now, love the "Game Over" stickers and that Chevy Silverado body is awesome!!

Sick Kev. Awesome upgrade can’t wait until I can get me a Keaton 8s.

Ur my favorite KZreadr👍👍👍Keep up the good work

I love how your honest and not bias, almost all the top arrma KZreadrs preach about there rig, to see in the description it's got $200-500 in parts.. lol

Brilliant episode!

Love your channel and continue doing you..

Yeah I gotta admit I wouldn't mind an 8s Kraton, and other than that chassis, the engineering and layout look pretty good. Thanks for the vid, you're keeping us all going out here in quarantine land.

Looks good nice job👍👍

Love ur vids

Great one Kev! Stay safe

That looks sick!

Jesus, that's the beefiest center diff ive ever seen! 😱 I love these wrenching videos. 😀

Looks good!!!

So I put a 4s brushless system in my granite, it originally came brushed. It lasted about 30 seconds before the rear end grenaded followed by the slipper gear melting. I upgraded everything to the 3s granite components and OH MY GAWD!! Thanks Kevin and Claire and Pat and 8s Steve for getting me interested in hobby rc. Best fun I’ve had since loosing my thumbs.

Great upgrades

Just got my blue udr with light kit. Very excited!

Banger video Kevin 👍👍😁😁

I wonder why aftermarket companies don’t make plastic chasis like the xmaxx for these Armas? Would make em lighter and bend proof probably minimizing the beating on the servos and motors that tends to happen as you have showed.

Flat bottom chassis don’t perform well as plastic. What gives it the strength is all the bends and curves in it.

The weight of my 8s Arrma is much heavier than my xmaxx. The plastic works with traxxas because the entire truck is built around being plastic, and they are super light for the size.

Ahhhh finally a cool wrenching video again!!

Gosh! That's expensive, but it looks very nice! Love the videos Kev! And about the race car's body, you do what you want with it! As long as you're happy! I'm happy!😉👍

So, the 8s Keaton that cost $899.00 U.S. plus an additional $300. 00 U.S.for this particular upgrade. $1200.00 US dollars. Let that sink in!! 🤦
