part #33, output joint, alloy upgrade?

[STANG KILLA SS]

edit: thats alloy upgrade, not allow :D

after having the CC for less than an hour and some VERY light granny wheelin, its striped out the part #33 "Main Gear Output Joint" stripped all 4 of them.:-(

for a temp fix i took 4 small balls of paper, and put them inside the stub shafts, to push the dog bones further inward into new fresh plastic in the "output joints". seems to work for now. but will need attention soon im sure. is there an alloy upgrade for these?

yes we all use a oring in there where u have the paper an it works great. would be a good ideal to read some of out treads an you will like your lil cc better

i havent upgraded ny plastic parts on my cc and i have been running it as hard as i can drive train is good. all i broke was the tab off the rear motor. ive narrowed it wth the axial stubbies and hexes. flipped all the hubs side to side and moved the links around in the front to make it paralel to the ground. o yeah and wieghts lots of wieghts. but i do think i wanna make it a lot longer about 2 inchs.

mine is at 10.25 . i no we cant run in the 1.9 class but have built this truck so i can run with the losi to see how it will do.im going to put 1.9 tires on it as soon as i find some

[gigercreeper]

wat size r the stock losi claws on the rtr:?: i was gonna get some but they seemed tiny. i didnt like the looks of them

[randy1]

i think thay are a 1.9 but u can get 1.9 tires the same size as the cc tires. i like the cc tire if u cut the foam an cut some of the lugs out they work really well. mt cc will go nywhere my ax 10 will

o i have clipped the s**** out of mine i thought they workd great till i put on some hammers M2 compound with narrowd rims. sooooo much better glad i bought them. im was gonna buy some losi claws but they only had 1 pair. im gonna go buy them nxt week though cuz they r on sale.

sounds cool i liked my losi tires . i want to try the flat irons out

[randy1]

i have a cc i need to sell so i can found all this . im looking for a set of berg beadlocks for my ccz

[gigercreeper]

i think ur gonna need to add alot of wieght for those to be the ticket. i went out today wth some occrawlers for the first time. i couldnt believe how heavy there rigs were ther were all axial ased rigs

[randy1]

i have 3 oz in each front an 2 in the rears . the breg rims are alum. so that will make it an hev. all togather

[gigercreeper]

i jst added 2 1/4 ouncz on each axel and oly had 1 1/2 ounces left for the wheels so i have 3/4 ounce on the front gonna try it out tommorrow

Cory, :shock: look at the chit chat thread you started:lol:, seriously though, the part you and i need will be available in steel in dec. according to tower hobbies, http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXVFJ1&P=Z , if you haven't already i would also upgrade the diff internal gears, i have but i am waiting on the steel main so i can go back to 8 cells and my jrh motors8)

Even with the metal joints I recommend you install an o-ring out at the wheel end of the dogbone"thumbsup"
