    Rear Hub Carriers

    I'd like to change the rear toe in. Looking at the Hostile one piece carriers on the 5b, I think they'll fit on the arms, and the bearings are the same size, 24x12X6. Might even be able to use HPI axles. No adapters would be needed then. Has anyone tried this?

    Rear chassis flex

    The driveline to the rear diff rubs on the bottom of the engine crankcase when you run hard. Too much flex at the rear of the chassis. I'm thinking about a couple of L stiffeners underneath welded in, running to about half way under the gas tank. Or a steel roll cage. Or, Possibly, making...

    HPI 8k clutch quirk

    I noticed, since the drivetrain is apart right now, with the drive belt off, that since the humidity increased the clutch is now dragging slightly in the bell, before the clutch would spin freely. Nothing else, just the humidity has changed, with the buggy sitting on the bench in the air...
