Received a 50T Delrin Slipperential spur today and rebuilt my Slipperential with it. Needed to go with the 50T because I'm using the high kv Vector 8 motor, and my gearing options were too limited with the 46T. Going to start out with 15/50, right about 42mph. This will be my first time using a plastic spur, so I look forward to trying it.

The spur was a bit too large to clear the chassis so I added in some black nylon spacers to a big order I was placing at Bolt Depot already.

I also decided to can the idea of using 1/8 buggy front shocks, and I'm now going to be using Revo shocks all around. Main reason being the cost and availability of proper rate springs. I was looking at both Jato and Revo springs, and it looks like the Jato springs should be good for what I need. Probably pick up the variable damping kit to play around with too. I used to have all this stuff when I had my E-Revo. Sucks when you sell stuff and then end up having to buy it again!
