    Well that sucks!! I have the ball drive system installed. Do they make a ball drive system for the FH? If so, could I just install the FH ball drive outdrive? Thanks for the info CSP!

    Counter sunk Diff screws falling out

    I have had my diff apart a couple of times and didn't see any "shims" in there. Also, I have looked at the diff articles written by Bigger The Better and didn't see any shims in his, nor in the manual. Do you have an FG part # for these, or are you just "shimming" with washers??

    FG Modellsport steel spur gears

    I would try your local automotive store and get some fuel line or the like. Bring your rubber mount with you so you can match up the diameter. I haven't tried it, but that would be my first thought!!

    Alternative MT tires?

    I emailed the seller back in April to find out what and where they came from. He said they came out a factory as overstock from Taiwan. I replied back to find out if they were in fact for an FG vehicle as HE advertised and didn't get a response. Also, I just measured my wheel and the 4 3/8...

    Upgrading diff due to clinking...

    WoodiE, First, make sure that Mike at RCNUTSHOBBIES has the parts in stock BEFORE you order. He has been having problems getting stuff from distributors. Second, there was a discussion about diffs in another thread about Elcon vs FG and the ball drive system. I ordered it from RCNUT and it...

    Where/How did you get your username?

    Diffirent Dif's?

    Wow, you're right. I just checked on Elcon's website. BUT, I did see this... "The raised diff mounts are required for enough clearance from the chassis in order the diff to run free" So, correct me if I'm wrong, but the Elcon diff is a minimum $350.00 with the mounts!!!! I better start...

    Alloy Servo Saver

    Thanks man....I really appreciate the info. It is hard to make any kind of decision when there isn't anyone to talk to about it. NONE of my freinds are running FG.....all Baja 5b(I'm not bashing the baja AT ALL, I wanted something different), so there is no help there. And the only local...
