Hey, I took a look at yours and the version 3 out of 3 chassis. Mine is much different than either of the two.

If your having trouble viewing the directions in acrobat - i could try to convert to microsoft word - if this will help you - let me know

After looking around I think it may be 4 versions. I like the 4 th better. Is that the one you got.

captain harlock · 03.03.2006, 11:38 AM

Yeah, I guess it is. Pics will come later.

Hotncold: Thanks, buddy, I've already downloaded the adobe reader.

Coolhandcountry: would a file do the job to fix things?

HotnCold · 03.03.2006, 11:40 AM

Oh crap - now i have the instructions but no diffs - lol - no prob - good luck

captain harlock · 03.03.2006, 11:42 AM

What do you mean?!!

HotnCold · 03.03.2006, 11:44 AM

I downloaded the stuff from ue - for the 8 spyders - and printed them to scan them into a program that you probably had so you could see how to do the diffs - to try to help you with the diff problem you were having

captain harlock · 03.03.2006, 11:48 AM

Man, you didn't have to, really. Thanks a million, though.

I read your post and i just couldnt help myself - I feel for ya man - sometimes it sucks to be stuck and all you wanna do is be done with it - no problem whatsoever - Good Luck -

It fixed little problems i had captain. The file took it down little at a time. The dremel will remove it faster but you can remove to much. I took a little out the inside where the a arms go. I took a little of the a arm to. It takes a little time but it is better than buying more stuff.

A file would be the best IMO. Take your time and remove a little material and try to fit - repeat as necessary. Take your time and when your done, you will have an awesome machine. :)

What about the hole of the hybrids? the one which holds the two bearings of the pinion gear. The left side of the front hybrid seems thicker than the right one. When I put the bearing in it, it is pretty difficult to make the bearing rotates freely.

Using a file I might let the hybrid's sides and the setback arms look ugly. Well, I already made them look ugly.

make sure the bearing isn't in sideways or something. I am pretty sure they are assembled and machined as a single unit.

I've filed my racer x arm's down too to make them fit ga bulk's. Big deal, they work like supposed to and the rough finnish won't make them loose performance. Unless your building a show off truck.

About the snug bearing fit, if you really don't see a way of getting a bearing in there without modding it, send it back to flm. You could sand it down yourself, but to much and the bearing will wobble, causing the diff to prolly self destruct.

Also problem's happen when building these type's of truck with part's from different mfg's. Need to get used to it that it's more than screw part a onto part b.
