well I sorry for the confusion. I do have the integy racer on the gmaxx with double extensions. I have the rpm with integy knuckles on the stock chassis. Sorry for that. It confuses me with more than 1.

Hey Basketti, Sorry I did not answer your questions. The knuckles I have are from RCXSHOP and they say thier made by Associated. They look good but the bearing size is stock. About the gears, Mike is getting them for me and I don't know witch ones he's getting. You said you used locktight, What # and color? I got plastic ball cups. Will locktight work on them? I have msr4 shocks, Don't know the differance between 4"s and 5"s. As for the brushless motor. I am like you, I like long runtimes but I like lots of power so I think I will get a ''hotter 8xl or 7xl'' and run16 cells and later get LiPo's and have plenty of runtime and power. I put the shocks back together and they look great. Thank you all for your help.

The difference between the msr5s and the msr4s are that the msr5s have a 3.5mm shaft, the 4s have a 3mm shaft, also the reservoirs have a different design.

[squeeforever]

the 5s have a heatsink on the reservoir also.

the locktight i used is blue locktight, i didnt know they have #'s. I've only heard that theres blue locktight and red locktight, and the red one is REALLY hard to undo so its best to use blue. If you have plastic ball cups you wouldnt need locktight i think, i use the stock ball cups. I cant make up my mind on which motor i'll get, i'll probably end up getting the 8xl cause its right in the middle lol. what weight oil did you end up putting in the shocks?

Don't have the rebuild kits yet. What kind of chassis are you using?

Hi, I started this thread when I started on my bl. In this thread we discussed if my cvd's would be to short or not. Now I have the truck put together and they look to short. Here are some pic's to look at.

That sucks! i guess youll have to get some different ones. I have mip ones and they work fine :)

[nbcaznmaster]

I say they are too short when they fall out! lol

v

did you change the picture? cause when i looked the pic was around the other way then i pressed refresh and it changed lol

How far are the pivot balls screwed in? If you screw them in about 2-3 more turns apiece should be plenty.

I must have something wrong. Did you use the back center dogbone on the front of the flm setup??
