Curious to see how this one works out for ya😂 ours is fun when it ain’t broke.

Grab some typhoon 6s shocks for it

Ours is on the bench waiting to swap in the 4s center diff setup.
This set of shocks?

I don't know why, but lately I've been eyeing a BR3S. Don't need one. But they are cool.
I believe you are incorrect, you do Neeeeeed one! 🤣
 
Due to recent financial setbacks I had to just get a factory set for now but the 6s shocks will be ordered next time for sure
Shiit, did you order them already? I can send you a set of stock shocks?

And a few other spare parts 😂. I’ll have to look at what all I got for it

Should I cancel em?

the driveshafts i ordered are too long, ugh

That's the only reason I use my old hex driver set as they are longer than the MIP and reach that screw.

Its weird that my BRCC with the heavier wheels never broke many (if any🤔) shafts. Yet my sons Senton with small tyres, would break one often.

I've thrown 2 off so far, they just keep disapearing lol i got no clue where or how, none of the parts that remain are ever broken, has been weird.
 
@majin

I know you've already removed the old driveshafts, but another option is to remove the complete diff to get to that screw. This way you don't need a long drivers.
The diffs come out quite easily.

Like this.

i think this is what I'm gonna haz to do to reasseble them, thanks bro i was wondering how i was gonna get them back on!
 
well well well. lookit what i drug out today..
the big rocks been out of comission for a long time. i needed a new wheel hub pin for the wheel hex, finally ordered the part. but as per my norm i ordered the wrong size lol
fortuanately i ordered them too long and was able to just cut the 15mm pin down to a 12mm pin and got the hex mnounted solid again..
now i can't find my tires. lolol good times i found 1 of them so the other 3 should be around here somewhere lol
wish me luck. but I'm probab;ly gonna end up ordering a set of pre mounted tires for it
