What's your opinion on these for hubs? I was originally gonna go with the Hostile adjustable but for the price these look nice. What you say?

I’m sure there not bad but personal I would get the hostile hubs. Plus those are coming from China you probably won’t receive them till the end of January. Plus china parts have little re sale value.
Man I lost another set of pins again today clean all the screws bought some new red loctite. I let them sit and cure for 32 hours and they still came out.

Grind a small slot in the middle of the pin where the screw goes, then it can't come out when the screw is in.

My dogbone spit a pin the other day. Not sure what style pin your running but I found these. They look like they may hold better

It already has a slot going to try and make it a little deeper
Well just ordered some more hopefully this will be the last set going to mod them a little.

What weight are you guys running in your differential with the 34 reed. Since I upgraded the motor diff fluid seems to light and I can’t remember what I originally put in there. Think I might upgrade the clutch spring also to 9500.

Hey, what gearing were you running in the Stadium truck vid, 20/44? That thing sure does get out of it's own way and like no tire spin too!

1st I have the shift point set to engage later
It's still my favorite 1/5 probably because its 4wd and it's just the right size not to big and not to small.

Took her for a spin today ripped the whole front wheel out lost a bearing and E clip. Lesson of the day stop running in places you shouldn't be.

Buy the updated hpi hubs, they use a screw rather then the clip. The clip is a poop design
