I took one of the new E maxx's apart tonight and discovered a few things about them.

Did you know?:

1. The new E maxx has larger inboard bearings on all 4 corners for the wheels?

2. The new E maxx uses Rubber sealed bearings everywhere?

3. The new E maxx has steel Wheel Hexes??!!

They really have done alot of improvements on this one

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes (I've been studying the exploded views alot)....

I think it was a clever move by traxxas to use the same parts on the T & E, saves having different moulds for all the parts. I wonder if the T-maxx will get an update with the better diffs and a longer chassis, then it would use the same lower braces too.

To my knowledge, the T-Maxx 3.3 (which came out a while ago) uses the better Revo diffs, and I know it uses Revo knuckles and slider shafts.
