I found my problem with the rear diff. to be a loose nut behind the wheel.
I installed the differential assembly on the wrong side of the case. Fixed it
last night now it's like butta'.:027:

Uh oh....you do know the walbash' make your truck 1 inch narrower? Right? So basically, your truck, (if its a widemaxx version) is like a standard original maxx. I.E., VERY NARROW. There specific to the Revo but fit the maxx'. I would recommend going with some Velocities if you havent glued them yet.

Thats a beuatiful machine you have there! Yea, id switch those rims around with some velos. But you can leave them if you want, but you will have noticable amount of rolls during running.


The problem with nitro's these days are that they arent brushless... LOL

I guess sometimes you learn by doing. A couple of great people on this forum warned me about the axle choice I made and now I know why.

Nice man! What cvds are you now gonna get? UE 6mm drive shafts would be neccesary. The ones mike has would be perfect for you.

Well I did the same thing. I went the cheaper route and it cost me more in the long run. Nice truck by the way. What did you break?


Peace!

The axles on just one side and 1 battery popped out and split the case.
This happened after only 3 jumps. Before this it was running great as I was adjusting everything.
I was just looking at the UE 6mm cvds. I'll have to do a some side work to get them.

Here it is with my it's new shell. It's the HPI DRX shell I think it fits pretty well. The paint work is mine. The next body will be a Revo 3.3 shell. As you can tell I haven't had a chance to really thrash it. Video soon .
