That would be wise, unless you can find a true hardened pinion.

Taking a plastic spur is proven tough.

like a clutchbell?

Too heavy. And most likely not as durable as a plastic spur/pinion.

so i basicly need to stick to kyosho then.
ok, many thanks guys

and yet another question:
what do you think of 14mm hex hubs, are they up to the task of serious bashing? i dont mean whimpy plastic ones, but alu or even steel ones.

I agree 100%! Next to UE VBS the FLM combo bulks w/6 or 8 spider & UE CVD's are a dynamite combo!

I use the FLM with UE diffs, never had a problem!!
Jolly-if you can, use the dace 23mm adaptors. I use the 14mm alum hax on my girls truck and they are wearing the rim hex indent.

what bout 17mm, strong enough?:032:
i tough so the 14mm ones wouldnt hold up.
thanks newe.

17's should be just fine

dace's have 22mill nuts, dont they?

yes, the 23 are 22mm, you can go to any sears or whatever to get the socket and not pay 29.00 for a wrench

to bad, i already have the 30 euro's wrench. stupid me.:007:

Nah, not stupid, just didn't kow yet! LOL you can still get the dace and buy a socket to fit a ratchet, still cheap!

yeah, hehe.mmmmmmm dace :004:

yet another question,
are hpi savage diff's the same size as 7.5 diff's or are they bigger?
