Btw, it's a rear pulley with the sonic welded flange missing.
Thank you Mike

I called Horizon and sent an email exactly the way I was told to with pics, I just hope I can get the pulley sent to me this week, Friday night practice then the winter point series starts Sunday. Hopefully I get the call back from the guy from Horizon today.

I did buy a R614 and it fits. I had to stand it up on its end with the antenna face up and I stuck it to the side of the servo. Its a tight fit but it finally cleared the body. I will take a picture of it tonight when I get off work.

TLR is zero for 2 on kit release bodies. Thank god for aftermarket and the smarter people at TLR who come out with better bodies later on.

by the way. the stock 22 2.0 body does wonders for holding my door open thanks
Are any other bodies currently available for the 22-4?

I am running the base setup right now and it felt pretty good, however I just want to see what some of the Pro drivers are using as a comparison
For high traction type surfaces, I would recommend the full time 4wd. When you get into looser terrain that is when the clicker comes in super handy.

If you are running a large receiver, I would recommend mounting it to the side of the servo. Plenty of room there and then the wires have room inside the body as well.

Never ran the XX-4 in the past, so noob wheeler question.

Just finished the chassis build, moving on to the diff and trying to get some starting references. I locked the clicker (it is tightened all the way down) and for now have the slipper tightened all the way down. How many turns should I back off for a good starting point while still on the bench?

Second, is same question for diffs. How tight do you guys run the diffs? This is just for a starting reference before I hit the track and break-in the diffs. I follow Matt Castellano's video for my diff builds. I think I have both front and rear diffs pretty tight, or do you tighten them just enough until the outdrives begin to spin in opposite directions. They are spinning as they should, but there is a bit of resistance.

"Locking things down" does work for some things but not for others. Take a ball diff for instance, the worst thing you can ever do is tighten it all the way down and back it off some. You will push the balls right into the diff rings and make it terrible from the get go. If you are running a clicker or locking out the clicker, that can be and should be tightened all the way down making sure the teeth on the clicker are fully seated. As for the slipper and diff, you want to start with the diffs loose and break them in according to the directions online. Then you start with the slipper loose and slipping lots and slowly tighten it until it is good.

Does anyone know when the aluminum servo horns and chassis protective tape are going to come into stock? I don't think they are available anywhere.

Thanks

Thank you hacker, I will try the clicker when I get it back on the track and see how it feels

Okay, so if I understand correctly then I want to tighten the diffs just enough that the outdrives spin opposite from one another and then go from there? That is pretty loose. I always thought the TLR guys ran the diff tight and backed off 1/8 turn.

I will properly set the slipper once it gets on the track.
