Will do.

My only concern is the rear cvds sliding out of the rear diff cups. Fronts are very fine.

I was gona mashine longer cups so that the cvd will have a larger area of play and hence wont fall off.

The guy said 150$ for a pair. Too freaking expensive.

So i ended up putting shims on the inside of rear bearing holders(drive cups) so that I gain a bit of space to further push the cvd inside. Lets hope it wont fall off.

After further investigation. It seems that they are falling cz i have installed the offset bushing of 7075rc

Will take pics tomorrow.

You don't need the offset bushing, the angle is built in the bushing holder.

I added three 1mm shims between the drive cup and bearing holder to push the cvd pin inside the diff cup more. Works like a charm now.

Next stop: cage to be painted red

Thanks. Fg bumper is not a direct bolt on, i have 7075 chassis with 7075 chassis inserts and they are 3cm taller than stock, so they stand out in front of the diff housing.

I have drilled that extra space and used the 7075 shock tower by sliding 2 long bolts to fix it to the top of the bumper.

As for those links, IRP makes top notch product. I haven't tested the truck yet since i will paint the cage and have some leakage from the gas tank.

A lot of people use those links on their losis and bash the hell out of them with 0 problem. Im guessing they are fine.

They cost a lot tho. 150$ for the turnbuckle and rear link
