@pete Next time just contact us for a replacement so you dont have to worry about the part. It's no problem. @CSaddict I understand your point and I can see how you would come to that conclusion. All products under go development and change over time and just like most companies we state clearly that the product is subject to change wthout notice. The skidplate was an improvement to the kit we had planned to do and we discussed it as a possible option part but decided to just make it standard and replace the original parts. Its not a free part its included in the kit and replaces the original parts. The replacemet parts have been updated to this new part as well. http://www.venom-group.com/itemdesc....VEN%2D8348&tp= @legion http://www.venom-group.com/itemdesc....VEN%2D8395&tp= Last edited by CRAWLINGAROUND; 04-15-2009 at 10:05 AM. |

Although the alloy dif cases are in stock. Anyone think I will have problems if i wait until my stock set wears out before replacing? since i am unlocking and locking alot it might wear soon.... driving my creeper with panther tires, and with the remote diff locks, if i do get a tire pinched in a spot, I can unlock that axle and have the rest of the non stuck wheels pull it out! New trick i learned, I am sure I am the last to figure this out. Last edited by username; 04-16-2009 at 11:59 PM. | |

i think the spider gears are the weak point.so if your going to pick up the case you should pick up some spider gears also for back up.

Its going to be a little bit longer before the dig is in full produciton but for sure by early summer. The spider gears are pretty tough and have held up to huge torque loads in testing with about 500-600W of power at hand. Make sure things are lubed and mesh well. The parts are in stock and shipping quickly so if you dont see them in stock on our site you can call us to confirm they are in or place an order. Check with your local stores too because they are the ones buying all our parts up! Chris |

"The skidplate is in stock now and shipping to dealers. New links are in stock. New stiffer springs are in stock." Called customer service for a new stub axel and orderd the new center skid plate and other extra parts. Also asked about the above mentioned new links and new stiffer springs and the rep. knew nothing about them...and there is nothing listed on the site. Also no date on the dig as of today when I called. Would think they would try and beat losi to the punch, if they dont, fear it will kill sales of the creeper..

I spoke with Chris and was able to get some of the bent rod ends. the new ones have a number and look much thicker. I havent broken one yet, I replaced all 4 of the ends on my lower links where they connect to the axle. I have broke three of the originals. I find my stock springs no longer hold the weight of the rig up, even with the shocks adjusted up all the way. I would prefer to stay with black or red springs, for the sake of matching the rest of my parts. As for the dig, i dont think there is much we can do but wait. For a part like that to get made and at a decent price for the end user, it will take some time. I am sure there are numerus manufactures involved in getting all the parts ready, passing testing and revising then testing again... plus the fact these things are all made in china only makes it take that much longer i am sure. also AFAIK, the losi won't have the diff locks, something I wouldnt trade for worm drive at this point. Not sure how useful front AND rear dig would be. I may however sell off my ax10 and a "go fast" rig and get one just to have it. | |
