That really looks cool.

The best part about it is:

You know it's done right and there are NO worries. :yes:

Looks great Freeze! If I can find enough extra stainless button head screws at that size I'll stick them in the mail your way. That way you can have the extra bling of oxide, stainless, oxide. You should only need four right?

Lol, thanks for offer but i'll pass, I won't care much for that look on the motor.

Oh wells worth a try, still looks pretty slick as is.

i really like the look of the motor with the button-head screws. i will seal up my flux motor the same way after i get some more screws from the local hobby store.

I plan on sealing my motor the sme way, but there is some stock on dirt in the holes, and I don't think blowing them intot the motor witha compressor is such a good I dea. How should i clean it?

Remove the end cap and clean it.

Any updates Freeze?

Not till next week im afraid, i'm still waiting for FLM to make my parts :whip:

On a good note though, my "missing" Lipos from HK FINALLY arrived. Damn near 3 weeks to the day, i'll never do international air again.

I was putting my flux back together last night, and one thing that has always bugged me about it was the amount of dirt that was able to get up inside the diff through that hole in the bottom. So I'm experimenting by putting a layer of heavy duty grease around the opening - both on the diff casing and the skip plate. We'll see if it keeps the dirt out of the diff itself. I would have used some silicone, but I didn't have a tube handy.

ps. You should buy the sway bar kit. I know you dont want to use those, but the caps for the hinge pins are worth the cost of the kit IMHO.

Totally. HPI really needs to make those standard on the truck and sell them seperately.

freeze, what are the parts that you requested flm to make?

Their still working on the TVP when I called them up directly yesterday, there apparently behind schedule with orders.

I have the swaybars on my truck, and those caps are awesome! Definetely recomend buying the sways just for the caps.

I fixed that on mine with some thin gasket paper i picked up from the local auto parts store. I used the quare ridge in the skid plate as a template and just cut it out with a razor blade, fits perfectly and keeps all the dirt out of the diff. Plus you can still take the skid plates off, unlike using silicone where it might act like a bonding agent. You can also use thick paper if you want. I did this before i ever even ran my flux and its always been as clean as new inside and im still using the same piece of gasket material after probably 6 or 7 times of taking it appart

grease vent
 

You should be able to find a small vent plug for it somewhere. You may have to drill and tap it out to size, but there are vents out there for just this purpose. They are usually used on industrial type bear boxes, and come in all sizes.
