    Definitely great video. Same reason why I kept the plastic Spur gear. Rather have that strip then anything else further down the line. Slipper clutch is just a extra barrier and good safety

    Good advice dude even with bashing slippers are needed to stop stripping diff with crazy launches and and hard landings.

    For real. I have been told that some people remove it to get better control of the vehicle (instant response or whatever). If they do, they can expect to start breaking stuff however. A trade-off, as usual... How is your 144001 coming along?

    Hi there! Search for the OPTImill MH 20VL, and find a dealer near you. I bought this one from a local specialist tool supplier.

    It can be reused quite a lot. If it starts slipping too much, just tighten it enough and you are good to go. I have used mine a lot, and so far have never needed to replace it.
