the shock mounts?

had to find his facebook page to see a better image - presume its ooples servers reducing the res.

though it is a new front top deck as it doesnt have the antenna mount on it - its now behind the servo.

and given that a few drivers seem to be running the b5 balljoints, i wonder if this is heading towards a metric version of the car.

Default B44.3 £265

Having run a dex410 for mostly 4 years thinking of a change and at £265 at mb models seems a bargain.

Whats the car like on high grip astro with this centre diff and how would it compare to a dex410 to anyone who may have owned both?

Never ran a durango but have a 44.3, centre diff on high grip is good as long as you run very high grade oil in centre, I run 10k/500k/7k and it goes very well

hi, this is an old thread but i have just built one of these and had to order some diff shims and now i can fit the bearings over, they are shiney not like the over size ones in the kit.
got the RPM arms but a bit confused how to secure the hinge pins, im guessing the screws provided go in the end to secure but don't want to damage them can anyone confirm this?

Hi, I was slightly confused by the RPM arms for a minute. The big screws hold the pins in rather than the other method

You'll also need to dremel the back side of the arm near the inner hinge pin as it catches the chassis
Just make sure the arms drop under their own weight with out the shocks on

Without buying new diff out drives, what are people using to replace the 3.6 x 0.7 and 4.7 x 1.42 red o-rings that go on each diff out drive. Do not want to buy 3 sets of out drives, one because there's nothing wrong with my current ones and two it's about £13.00 per pair.

Any suggestions would be great, thanks.
