  1. http://www.msuk-forum.co.uk/gallery/image/32809-/ even with the added nut there are no clearance problems as it ends up about the same thickness as the original plastic
  2. I still have the stock wheels. the knuckles are the same dimentions as the stock plastic ones apart from the arm thickness so wheel clearance will be the same. the arm is a little thinner than the plastic and this allowed me to add a lock nut to the bottom of the screw as one worked itself out on the first run. I dont know why the three holes they are so close together it does not make a difference what one you use
  3. http://www.msuk-forum.co.uk/gallery/image/32808-/ http://www.msuk-forum.co.uk/gallery/image/32807-/ upper trailing arms and front knuckle arm. they look very silver I wish I ordered a different colour now
  4. I got some new grp parts today from asiatees some I ordered in gun metal grey but they just look silver to me. I am a little disappointed with the colour
  5. :thumbsup:well more practice required but now you mention it there is a lot of play in the steering due to the servo saver but I will leave it as is for now if I change the front diff oil to 500000 wt is this going to make things worse for me?
  6. its on higher speed runs. as the car bounces up from rough ground it can change direction an as it lands it rolls. It may be me over compensating for the change of direction or it may be the model landing slightly sideways to its direction of travel im not sure I can understand it rolling in turns that is just turning to sharp for the speed
  7. well I still seem to have alot of problems rolling my yeti. Is this all down to the driver (ie me) how do I improve this. is there anything I can do to the model to help
  8. it was only the bearings in the front hubs that were affected. that is why I did not want a full set. I have orderd the ones from yor link in the previous post. thanks for the help
  9. the kit has metal steering posts with bearings included
  10. well after only one very short beach bash my front bearings are a rust mess can I buy individual bearings or do I have to but a complete set I also added a t bone front bumper/skip plate http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351316868851?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
  11. yes but now I need to order a metal receiver box cover and drive shaft. damm it
  12. I added a foam insert into the bumber brace today as I thought it collapsed a little too easy. Then I set about waterproofing my new servo. corrosionx and marine grease and a coat of plasti dip on top. it is a Savox SB-2270S with an axial 25t horn just like zombi's
  13. yes all the online listings I found said out of stock
  14. where can a I buy a werty made bumper
  15. thanks I will need to strip them down and have a good look and try again
  16. the plastic part is 30mm long with a M4 thread. I need some help identifing the correct part
  17. lol one tree in a vast field. Guess where my son aimed the car. I was a fast head on impact. it also bent the drive shaft but this is still useable. I am suprised this was the only damage
  18. correction it was the plastic rod end that snapped
  19. We managed to snap a front camber link today. Is it worth opgrsding or should I just replace with stock. If it is best to upgrade what should I use
  20. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tamiya-54419-Silicone-Diff-Oil-1000000-TRF417-418-NIP-/251854484736?_trksid=p2054897.l4275 what about some 1 million dif oil
  21. I just fitted my GPM lower rear trail and noticed the rear shocks had been leaking I have not had much luck putting together shocks I either over fill them so the lock out or end up with air gaps or now a leak any tips?
  22. well some how I ordered a GPM aluminium front body post mount. Its not a part I was planning to upgrade. The joys of internet shopping
  23. thoes nanda,s look pretty good for that price I think they will be worth a try
  24. its for bashing not racing and I let my son play with this one so I tend to limit the top speed anyway. So a little extra weight will not be a problem and the ease of use wins it for me. Thanks for the replies. I was looking at the proline split six wheels with a set of badlands. I think this is the way to go for me. But a full set and postage add up to nearly
