Do Kyosho spurs fit the 8ight?

Not sure if it's a better seal on yours, but I'm betting no.

did you use a paper gasket ?. I've used that spur on it two different cars a jammin & a losi with out issues.

No, sure didn't. I used the thin orange o-ring that was on the diff, so maybe that was the problem. At any rate, I ended up having to change to steel for durability. The plastic Kyosho didn't hold up well to 2,500w+

that's a lot to ask from a $3 plastic....
