    Man I can’t tell you how valuable your channel has been to me. I’m getting ready to build the associated truggy RC8T4 nitro with the Adam drake AD3 engine. I also want to build the rc8t4e as well. Thanks for all your videos. And yes I am a subscriber.

    can you get replacement bearing bushings and spare of the hinge pin locaters? looks like they made them plastic to be replaceable

    Im wondering to myself would this replacement work for the buggy with the same efficiency as the t4e?

    Just built mine up and noticed the front diff clicking when braking hard. Seems to be a lot of play forward and back on the diff in the casing as if the bearings are too small for the diff case. This is causing the diff to slip on the drive gear. Shims are fine as there’s no side to side movement. Its a bit disappointing, Is this normal or have a I got a faulty car?

    I think its a flex thing, mine does it too. No matter how tight I shim. I just got a set of the stiff carbon gearboxes in to try. Hopefully they flex less and the teeth don’t skip.

    So can you re-use the stock bearings in the original hubs or do you have to get different ones? Thanks

    Depends on if you are using in the b4 or b3.2. If you are using with the b4 that comes with flanged bearings you will need the non flanged bearings for these hubs. If you are putting on a 3.2 the stock non flanged bearings will fit these.
