Metalman, I forgot that I was using aluminum housings for my diffs, too. That's why I wasn't having any diff problems, lol!

Haven't driven for more than about 5mins due to diff disappointment.

I'm gonna throw mine on tonight, then I can find out what this 9L is all about :).

I am running an 8L and 3s2p a123 on my Stadium 10 and its crazy powerfull. 4s will be nuts! Ive had no diff issues at all.

Its actually a great handeling little truck IMO. Your looks nice. Good job. I am running motor front opposite the servo and the 2 packs in the rear. Do you have any closer pictures of your motor mount. I cant quite make out how you did yours. Mine is just a piece of L aluminum screwed to the chassis.

i don't have any closer pics, but i made an L bracket and notched it where the stock nitro motor mount screws went through the chassie. i then used the stock nitro mounts to clamp down my mount. i did this because i was in a hurry and its what i had. the nice thing about it is the the mounts because they stick up, also sandwhich the motor inplace.

wait, maybe you can get a better idea from my first pic i posted in another thread.

I've owned 5 brushless trucks, and the 9L MT2 was the fastest of all. I gps'd it at 60mph. Lots of fun!

holy cow, you got that off of your 4s packs? did the temp seem happy with your gearing? i still haven't had a chance to open mine up, but tomorrow morning its on. i did jump my ditch once when i got home and it landed upside down. i was running with the body off because i'm still feeling things out, and i sheared one of the front body mounts. it looks like i have to replace the whole shock tower, am i just looking at it wrong? i didn't really check it out too closely.
