just built a set of these tonight for my cousin and i think some vacuum is normal if you have the shaft all the way in when you tighten down the cap.

Thanks Jason. I just ordered and received the 3352b's. Same rim just in black. Rims fit very nicely on the Tekno. Does not have the axle sticking through the nut that was shown on a pic a page or two back. I will reference with next post.

chucktee;
what hexes do you run, +0,+1, or +2mm?
that may be the key, (see pics) +0 hexes leave about 4 threads showing, and the borrego wheel leaves them exposed to catch on pipes, the proline F-11 sits deeper but leaves the nut exposed too, maybe I should cut off excess threads flush with the nut and see if that ends the problem?
above with +0mm hexes.

I have been stuck on these FTW Diamondback body's for a minute, I really like the performance and the way they hold up, I do a small layer of shoe goo around the bottom edge all the way around only like 1/2 an inch just to keep the cracks from starting. My first one is a bit over 2 months and its still rolling strong and looking good. I do have to cut a it out of the rear wheel well in the back due to it rubbing when the tires expanding and making that God awful sound. Here is the newest one rattle can paint as always
i just trimmed out more fender well material!
show your inner body pic with shoe goo treatment
do u run indoor and outdoors?

Hi there , does anyone have a purple and a pink rear spring they could post side by side pic of ? I cant tell if the truck I bought has the pink or purple , the color is kinda in the middle ...
03-28-2014, 08:10 AM
The pink is very pink.Like this.
03-28-2014, 08:14 AM
ok .. Let me ask this , I dont see a "purple" listed for the fronts . I bought the truck off a racer , was there another "purple" spring that was popular to run on the front ?
03-28-2014, 08:18 AM
Do you have a green front to compare to? That should be softer than green if its pink and stiffer than green if its purple... don't remember if there's a purple front but I know the purple rear is really stiff so a purple front will also be very stiff if it exists.
Edit, looks like purple front does not exist. Is the spring purple or black with just the color on top of the spring coil?

I have the rear mouning post all the way down but im not sure if I am using a rear or front post? I will try to post a picture of it and I will post a pic of my shoe goo treatment. I have been running indoor only because we lost our outdoor track but I used to run outdoor as well.

No problem, in the pic I posted my truck is in the back and if you zoom in you can see which post I am using its the ones that have the slanted landing with the straight post not the post that angle at the head. I think I am using 2 fronts, not sure but I like the way it works with the bodies.

What chargers are you guys using? I am using a hitec h1 and it's starting to wear down and I am looking at chargers so thought I would ask.
