my castle 8th scale setup yeti

[microcrawlers]

picked up a used yeti to splice together with mine because i'm cheap and didn't wana but the upgrades new. paid what i would've paid for all the upgrades so i guess i got a free yeti out of it because the guy threw in all the spare/replaced parts so now i can build two.

started getting it tuned and setup how i like but the truck was overheating and it was too much for the current setup so i replaced it with an 8th scale 2200kv castle setup.
unlocked both diffs with playdoh in them
anyways on to the pics

That's normal for AR60 axles. Go with a DLux fab AR60 housing or something similar that uses larger pinion bearings and you won't have that issue anymore. My Yetis stock ar60 eats them about every 10-15 runs
