Has anyone received their CVD's yet? I got mine today and they look pretty tight.

Have yet to install them into the GPM alu knuckles. ( I been slack and working on my SCX10)

crunky · 01-19-2010, 05:07 PM

you got your cvd's already ?

i am on hold till the 27 of jan.

tpliquid · 01-19-2010, 05:13 PM

Im gonn have to order 4-5 sets of those CVDs

rc_dirtslinger · 01-20-2010, 09:01 PM

I just ordered the steering kit since all you guys said it will improve on the slop. But I was also wondering if anyone has just tried the knuckles themselves to see if they also work out some of the slop also? Or will I be happy enough with just the steering kit? Don't really want to spend money on something that I reallly don't have too.

tpliquid · 01-21-2010, 06:00 PM

I say the steer kit will improve the slop alot. You will be able to see a difference

SMUDGEBUG · 02-01-2010, 10:37 PM

Ordered 8 sets of steering. they shipped the afternoon of the 29th and arrived today 4 days from Hongkong to New Zealand ...... freakin awesom service to say the least. Installed one tonight and the difference is huge !

If your thinking of buying one of their steering kits then do so with confidence.

Clara and the GPM team are top notch and once my credit card recovers I will be buying some more upgrades from them

Do you think we can get GPM to make for us an aluminum motor mount? I have the stock silvercan in mine and with both diffs locked, the motor gets really hot (even with a heatsink). An aluminum motor mount can help dissipate some heat and ensure proper gear mesh at all times

Maybe we can even get them to use a sliding method so we can use pinions other than the 16T and 20T

douwe · 02-09-2010, 04:37 AM

i heard that ther wil come an alu motormount.. there is even a numer for it and estimated price

You're right, looks like they are coming out with the aluminum motor mount. Nice!

Grumpster1980 · 02-16-2010, 12:07 PM

GPM is comming out with some new parts!

CC030 lower rear shock mount
and it also looks like there are making new links for the rear CC161?

Don't buy it from FleaBay and give your money to GPM. The more we buy from them the more parts (new and old) they will make for the CC-01

For the 3 dollar price difference it's better to support the companies that support you.

pardonmyn00b · 03-01-2010, 08:47 PM

I still have intense slop in my steering after installing the gpm kit. It's on a new cc01 by the way so nothing is blown out. Everything is good up top, but down in the lower regions it's slop city. Can't even drive in a straight line it's all over the place. I know some of it is coming from the stock links, but still lot's coming from somewhere else.

tpliquid · 03-03-2010, 01:13 PM

If anyone interested I got alot of these aluminum servo mounts made.

I have more stuff for the cc01 but need to sell these first then i can put out more upgrades.
