Mine is a basher as well, I'm in the process of changing the shock spring front and rear along with the center diff fluid. Right now my D8T is fairly low to the ground and it just needs a little more clearance.

I looks like yours sits a little higher than mine, that might be because of the spring you used.

My only recomendation would be thicker center diff fluid. I'm going to start with 50K center diff fluid in mine.

Good luck,

just back from my favourite spot =D
i cant believe what this truck can do offroad.. handling is perfect, never driven a machine like this before..
i cant understand why its so underprice.. shoud be in the range of 500/600 truggy, for 330 is a real gift..
no broken parts.. 40+ min of runtime (2 runs of 20+ min)..
25+ jumps, not all landed.. (5/6 feet high, 10/12 feet long)
WOT for 30% of the time.. braking hard.. some general abuse..

still perfect =D .. just some scratches on the body and under the chassis..


nastety92 looking at your truck in your thread seems like we have the same springs, orange in the back, blue in front.. what shock fluid do you use? i'm using losi 50wt all around
i dont know if you changed something on your truck but from the photo seems like you have zero preload on rear shock..

for the center diff i also think that i need a thicker fluid, its almost impossible to wheelie on concret, but stock is 7k.. maybe im going to start with 20k instead of 10k..
what diff fluid are you running at the moment? 50k seems sooooo much..
what do you brushless guys run in center diff?
