a shame you skipped a lot of the essential parts of taking it apart a putting it back together. I know i was your first time, but you could have explained it, if filming it was a stretch.
@@BarstoneRC oh ok cool then I did it correctly. Tbh the center diff when I had just one shim on the gear side there was play. When I added the other shim to the side closest to the rear it tightened it up.
Love the PPS parts - want to get the adjustable motor mount. My Kraton 6s is down, ESC went poof in blue smoke 😢 also check if the input gear needs shimming behind the bearing
Yeah they make some nice stuff. But yeah I was checking if the input gear needed shimmed it felt pretty good but I’m going to run this a few times and then check everything again.
Yeah they’re really good about standing behind their equipment and sending you the parts unfortunately I’m still waiting on my limited slip differential because they were on back order but it should be here in the next week or so.
Get what's called 'tee nuts' for your batt tray. They come in M3 and will work with the stock screws. I also suggest gluing them in place, then using a high density foam to line the bottom of your tray. Try to keep it under 1/4" or you'll have problems with batteries fitting. 😎💪
Thanks for the video brother I'll deff start off wit the shins on the outside of the diff 1st not comfortable with doing the gears inside yet you made it look easy tho lol. And what wheels are those they looks like the other ones we have i hope the foam last longer on those ... Take care brother
Hey man also,the rear dif bulkhead over time the plastic allows for more play,basically cancels out the shim job..new plastic or aluminum bulkhead totally worth it,bash on brotha
I’m having trouble thinking about the tyres for my Kraton because we found a really nice place in some sand to drive and I should probably vent my tyres but I’m not sure how
Well if you’re not gonna be taking it into any water I wouldn’t be real concerned with venting them but if you do want to use like a quarter inch drill bit and put like six holes in your tire evenly spaced out in the middle.
I wouldn’t worry about sand. The only real reason to vent your tires is if you’re going to be going through puddles and getting water in through the rim vent holes because then you have to allow somewhere for the water to get back out
Yeah they both have the same differential it’s good to shim pretty much any differential it will help save your gears a lot. Do you have any questions feel free to ask
I just ordered the pps diff carrier. Have you add any issue with it at all?
No, it’s held up great
How the hell you remove it mine is stuck like clue smh won’t come out even budge
What won’t come out?
a shame you skipped a lot of the essential parts of taking it apart a putting it back together. I know i was your first time, but you could have explained it, if filming it was a stretch.
Yeah it’s hard trying to get everything and not make the video ridiculously long
Yeah I could imagine 😅great vid tho 👍🏻
Thanks buddy
Is it nessary to put shims by the bearings right before the cups? I think they come with one side shimmed but not the other. Thanks 👍
No you only want to put the shim on the gear side and push it towards your opinion
@@BarstoneRC oh ok cool then I did it correctly. Tbh the center diff when I had just one shim on the gear side there was play. When I added the other shim to the side closest to the rear it tightened it up.
Yeah you only want to add gears to the gear side and push it towards the pinion
You know if that aluminum diff mount will work on the Kraton EXB?
The diff housing? Yes it will
@@BarstoneRC thank you sir.

@@BarstoneRC My Kraton 6s esc went up in smoke as well recently.I contacted Horizon Hobby & they sent me a new one free of charge.
Yeah they’re really good about standing behind their equipment and sending you the parts unfortunately I’m still waiting on my limited slip differential because they were on back order but it should be here in the next week or so.
Shimming is good. It saved my life when I learned about doing shims. It's good on 3 and 4 s rigs also.
Yeah it definitely saves the differentials for sure and a lot of headaches down the road.
Countless hours of work.....5 minutes of light play. ABSOLUTE JUNK!!!!!
I put a differential locker in the back and have ran countless packs with it and had no issues now.
Nice upgrade big man lovely 💪🏽❤️🇺🇸🇬🇧👍🏽
Thanks bud

I can’t remember the name of them I’ll try to find out and let you know so far they’ve been doing well
Good video, helps noobs like myself!
Very in depth man . Love it . Thanks ! Got yourself a sub!
Thanks buddy! I’m glad you liked the video and really appreciate the sub.
Cool.....
I really like a aluminum top cover to for center diff helps to stiffen chassis up also there worth the coin
I’ve been thinking about getting one for the 6S cars maybe I’ll give it a try thanks for the info.
Hey man also,the rear dif bulkhead over time the plastic allows for more play,basically cancels out the shim job..new plastic or aluminum bulkhead totally worth it,bash on brotha
Thanks for the info bud!
That’s a really good point. I think I’ll get aluminum differential cases for them.
Absolutely,were all in this together lol
Nice upgrades and improvements 🛎👍
Thanks bud I appreciate it
Nice 🌹💕👍🎁🌷
Thanks!!
The mugen set comes with the shims for the spider gears too?
I haven’t got that set yet so I can say for sure.
6:38 they must have been really excited in order to come that quick
Yeah I was surprised myself.
@@BarstoneRC whoosh
thats called a chicago screw
Is that what those are called? I never knew what they were
I’m having trouble thinking about the tyres for my Kraton because we found a really nice place in some sand to drive and I should probably vent my tyres but I’m not sure how

Bars&tone RC could you also use a thin soldering iron
Yeah you just want to get some holes poked in there so at high speeds that water has somewhere to escape
Bars&tone RC what about sand?
I wouldn’t worry about sand. The only real reason to vent your tires is if you’re going to be going through puddles and getting water in through the rim vent holes because then you have to allow somewhere for the water to get back out
great job, now your diff is stronger !
Yeah and now I packed the center differential with silicone earplugs and the power and torque is just insane LOL
@@BarstoneRC ok and can you tell me which viscosity you put in front, central and rear diff?
The front and rear differentials have 100k weight and the center is packed with silicone earplugs.
@@BarstoneRC ok thanks
Good day, will this work with the arrma notorious? Please let me know. Thanks
Yeah they both have the same differential it’s good to shim pretty much any differential it will help save your gears a lot. Do you have any questions feel free to ask
It will work
Is this for v5?
This is on the V4 but they are the same thing.
@@BarstoneRC I believe the V5 is shimmed from the factory now....but I'm not 100% sure lol
I would be curious to see if they actually are shimmed properly?
What would cause my EXB to pull to one side under moderate throttle?
Well I would check the diff fluid first to see what’s in there. Does it do it at any speed or just under heavier throttle?
It tracks strait when it's coasting, over 20% is when it's doing it.
Yeah I would check the diff’s
Bad wheel bearing possibly or diff might be fouled
Terrible, for information video
Hey thanks for the kind comment.
