First vid. Meant to get more footage but i hadn't loctited the pinion due to still experimenting with different options and it came loose. Wasn't much of a bashing spot either, I was investigating another area near where i had bashed before.

Suspension is way too hard. The shock tower supports + lighter truck have made more difference than i expected. You can see the truck bouncing around in the vid because of it.

The Flux stock tires have a bit more traction when low profiled and taped but still not as much as i would like. Might eventually go back to some badlands and\or stock XL tires. Maybe suspension re-tuning will help out.

You can see me messing around testing out the slipperential a fair bit. The slip part seems ok now with the 3 springs but the front wheels get too much power when they are off the ground with 100K fluid. Traxxas make a 500K fluid, that might do.
