Well, since I have the rear end apart now, I thought I would take a few pics and post them up.
As Slawhammer's Firehammer intern (kidding of course....or am I?), I have been given the go ahead to post a few things.
I will be installing/changing the following:
Rear hubs to alloy (RiverHobby Product)
Steering knuckles to alloy
Rear diff mounts to alloy (RiverHobby Product)
Gear plate to alloy (RiverHobby Product)
Radio tray to carbon fiber (looks like this will take a bit of modification)
stock 23cc to 26cc with Zenoah big bore kit (nothing special really)
Alloy intake manifold by Z-RC
A few of the parts:
I started to disassemble the back end tonight. Dirty little thing, isn't it? The Riverhobby parts seem to be pretty nice. They are anodized almost the same color as the FHMT original equipment. Pretty close anyway, when it gets dirty, who cares what color it is? I haven't screwed anything down yet, just getting a feel for the fit of the parts. Besides, I have the engine to do first, and that won't be happening tonight.
Anyone have any advice on how to pull off the Diff Bearings that seem to be welded onto the diff cage? I want to repack them with my handy dandy Fast Eddy bearing packer thing.
