Make sure you press the bearing all the way into the axle caseing.

Are stick on weights included in the kit? They're shown in the pictures.

Here are the other parts I'll be using on the build. Axials new sticky compound Rock Lizards, a Mamba Max (I had to, the green matched ), a 55 turn lathe motor, and a HS-5955TG servo. |

| Unfortunately they are not... that is just a tuning guide that talks about adding weights... we didn't want to have to deal with any kind of issues that might arise from shipping or selling anything containing lead...

| No they aren't, they are showing you tuning suggestions. They also show star cut foams, but you'll have to do that yourself as well. It shows that Axial has done their research, and they are pointing people in the right direction.

| Getting closer. Building the axles is the first step. First we'll drop the pinions onto the shaft and lock them on with a cross pin and a c-clip. |

Next we'll slap the diffs together. Pop the crosspin into the locker drop it in the diff, add the gasket, and screw on the ring gear.

That's right I said locker, right from the factory, there's no need for JB Weld here. Word on the street is that these lockers will even drop right into the wheely kings if you so wanted...

Now pop the large bearings onto the diff, slide the bearings into the shafts, grease the ends of the shafts and pop them into the diff.

Now put a bearing onto the pinion and pop it into place. It's kind of hard to get it seated all the way so push hard and look at it from the outside to make sure it's all the way down. If not you'll be pulling it all apart later to make it right.

Lat the axles/diff in ontop of the pinion, drop the backside of the axle case on and screw it together them together. The long screw go in the top holes, and into the upper link mounts, the shorter screws get locktight on them and go into nuts from the other side.
