As I have never owned a new Traxxas anything, I am wondering if the roller I picked up today is current (pre clipless body though) or an older version. The only other Slash 2WD I have ever owned was also bought used, but, since I bought that directly from the original owner, I had a lot more info about it, whereas, this one, I bought from a guy on FB marketplace, who said he bought it at a rummage sale, and he didn't know much about it. The last roller I bought was a VXL, and had hex hardware, and the diff was white plastic, whereas, this one has all Phillips screws, and the diff is black plastic. Is that something they currently do for the brushed models, or, is this one an older version? I'm more curious than anything is all. For what I paid for that and a Slash 4X4 roller ($100 for the pair, and the 4X4 has nearly new sledgehammers on it from the Stampede, so, I definitely think I got my money's worth), I was surprised at how good condition they were in. I stripped them both, and, new rubber shielded bearings in both, diffs were well greased on the outside gears, and, overall, they seem very well maintained. Only thing I haven't done yet is pull the diffs apart on either one to see what they look like inside, but, they all turn like they should, so I think I'm good there. The part I thought was most interesting with both is that they came with 9T Arrma brushed motors, both of which work well (I tried them in my Senton project truck), but no ESC's, and both had Savox servo's, which I'm gonna be selling to a friend that races. I have enough cheap digital servo's I can use.
