- Thanks for stopping back guy's.. Today I went through the center diff and put in some 500k fluid to help distribute the power more evenly... This will also help reduce some heat in the center differential... ran into a slight hurdle along the way in terms of the v4 motor mount, so make sure to watch that section carefully to pick up some quick tips.. I hope you enjoy the video and I hope it will help someone down the road..
Enjoy your day or evening guy's, see ya on the next one!.... - บันเทิง
I like doing differentials.
I definitely enjoy the wrench time, it's nice to get the longevity out of the diffs after a nice shimming session..👍
I always want more light in the rc videos. You guys have helped me a lot.
Appreciate the kind words..🙏.. glad this video helped you ..
Good Video... well done.. greetings from Germany 👍
Thank you sir.. appreciate that..👍
Great videos.. I've been watching them all as I should be receiving my Felony tomorrow... The biggest issue with this rig is the lack of rear tires!.. how can you release such a drift monster and not supply skins... Crazy. Looks like speed runs for awhile.. 🤣😂 thanks again!
PS.. your wife must love you using her sock as a rag.. 😂🤣😂🤣
Thank you Bob, I appreciate the kind words.. I'm glad these videos will be helpful..
I know it, definitely doesnt seem like a good thing to release rigs to the public and at the same time have no parts supply to maintain the demand..
I apologize for not getting back to you sooner.. I got real busy and totally forgot until today..🤦♂️
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.. ya they are my daughters, they didnt fit her, so some bonus rags went in the rc pile..🤣🤣🤣.. if it's free it's for me! 🤣🤣🤣
Have a good one Bob, I appreciate you watching...👍
Also. After putting on the differential back on. Pushing the car back makes the gear noise. When I push it forward it gets stuck. I'm not getting those gear noises like what you did. You test it back and forth
If the center diff binds I would check your center dog bone didn't fall out of the front input cup.. sometimes it's a pain to get that shaft seated in the cup properly
So I really didn't test the waters. And they stripped to the bone, any recommendations in how to take one out? Thank you
The main motor mount sliding screws stripped?..
@@camaroboy383 yes. Sliding screws stripped
@@JohnPopeye well you have a couple options..
You can use a torx bit that is just bigger than the original hex size and pound it into the screw head with a hammer.. (think it's a t15) ...It will hobb its own teeth into the screw.. heat the screw with a torch and it should come out..
Option 2 is take a Dremel with a cut off wheel and slice a slot into the screw so you can use a flat head screwdriver to remove it... Again, a lot of heat is needed to break down the Loctite...
@@camaroboy383 thank you so much for taking the time to explain. I'll definitely try that
@@JohnPopeye no problem at all, any time...✌️
Nice video! I was wondering what diff fluid I should use if I like to do speed runs? Not really a drifter but I would like to be doing 90+ mph runs on this (8s conversion) and not sure what diff fluid I should run.
That question can be a slippery slope unfortunately.. depending on throttle input duration, if you have to pour in the throttle fairly quick then a lighter center diff fluid will be better for keeping the car tracking straight under heavy acceleration...
A heavier center diff fluid allows more power to the rear, and is liable to get sideways under heavy acceleration.. driving style and space allowed all play a role in what's best for your particular application..
If space is short, I'd say stay with 100k-300k so heavy acceleration drags the car from the front, keeping the rear in check.. but I would also use 30k-50k in the front diff so it doesn't just boil the right front tire off it..(that's what they tend to do with the factory 10k in them) This will also let you gain more speed in a shorter distance..
If you have significant space and can pour in on the throttle more gradual, then a heavier (500k) fluid or spool can be used.. once the rig is rolling at a good clip and bit in, the heavier fluid will accelerate quicker achieving your top speed faster.. Again this can be a slippery slope my friend.. In the end fluid weight is preference, and your driving style and space allowed is the main factor.. sometimes several fluid changes are needed to hone in on a perfect pass..
I hope this helps..👍.. thanks for watching and commenting.. Be glad to help in any way if you need.. happy street bashing..✌️
@@camaroboy383 Thank you very much man, this did help quite a bit because I'm more heavy on the throttle, but I also have a long stretch so if I tone down my throttle I could get better results. So I try the different fluids. Thanks again!
I hit 93mph with 30t pinion and 46 spur. With stock electronics on a 50c battery. Had to widen the motor mount so it can slide further out.
What you recomend diff oil for front diff and rear?
50k front and rear works well for me..😎
@alden outside of the electric screwdriver what brand of tool bits are you using I would like to get a set
Hey Carlos, thanks for writing in.. the driver bits I'm using in the video are the MIP driver bits.. They are a little pricey but worth the money all day.... they come as a set of 3..
They also come as complete drivers with handles if that is something you are interested in as well..👍👍👍..
Thanks for stopping by the channel...appreciate you..✌
QUESTION. Why don't u spin it in reverse to pull it down. Is just letting sit better. And. If I'm doing mostly speed runs. Would u still recommend going higher in the diffs. Or even that high. 500 center. 30 front. And 50 rear...
For speed runs yes still increase center.. 500k would be a good start.. but I would reverse the f/r diff weights..
thicker in the front.. lighter in the rear.. it will track more straight.. to thick in the rear, and it can break the rear of the car loose faster in my experience..👍
Basically your looking for the front end to pull the rig if all your doing is drag racing or speed runs..
I prefer my setup for both.. but I also have to roll the throttle in so it doesnt break loose and get sideways.. so not a good drag racing setup.. it works well for drifting and straight long pulls if there is room to roll in...✌
@@camaroboy383 thanks. I apologize the knowledge...ima start with the 500k first. What cst is 500k. Is it just 500k still
@@tropicthunderbolt the cst is 500k...=500,000. 👍
500 k in the center, you do the same thing for the bashcast?
Yes sir.. 👍..
Alden....taking your childs sock....really....JK....
Also the right front tire...camber looks like a little adjustment is in order...nice vid...waiting for the test ride.....tires on order...?
🤣🤣🤣.. she has the other one...🤣🤣🤣...
you are correct, the camber on that right front wheel was off just slightly.. but it goes deeper than that.. the way the caster is setup, (full allowable amount of positive caster from the factory) it is directly related to the camber.. at full turn the negative camber increases drastically so this is another area that I will be addressing...👍..
You can just turn the fan up, no need to remove it.
Yes its definitely possible with a good amount of force...but the heat sink on the felony and v2 infraction have retaining clips that squeeze the heck out of the sink.... mine wont move unless I pull the clip.. at that point it is way easier to pull 4 screws..👍
Were you able to spin your heat sink on your v2 infraction / felony?
I use my wife's 🧦 for diff changes too lol
So is 100k ok or is 500k the way to go?
🤣🤣🤣... Free rags man..🤣🤣🤣... I'm partial to the 500k for drifting and hooning around...👍..
100k is going to let some power bleed to the front.. good for tracking straight under hard acceleration, especially from a dead stop..
@@camaroboy383 ok yea I don't really care about 100mph speeds more of just drifting around. I guess I'll change to 500k in diff and what do you recommend in front and rear? Yea my wife always has mismatched socks hanging out so I snag them to Polish my aluminum rc parts and now for diff changes hash cheers! Plus 1 sub here!
@@never-stock-rc2968 I run 50k front and rear diffs.. 👍
@@camaroboy383 awesome! I'm on it this Friday I have off. Ill probably shimm the diffs as well saw your vid on that too. Just got the gens ace basher series 8000 100c lipos in mail today and they are the bizz for sure!! Plus that power hobby servo is insanely fast!! Whoaa. I'm surprised the dx5r pro still gives avs... 🤔
