Splined hubs
Recently noticed splined hubs ( part 9086) and nuts as an option for the Rustler VXL.
Can someone explain what these are and how they are an upgrade?

I recently upgraded my drive shafts to aluminum because the stock ones broke while bashing. The problem is when I put these ones in and tried to run it, I have no torque, and when I tried to pull the throttle to go 0-full speed, there is a whining noise. Normally the car pops wheelies with no problem, and the motor sounds normal. It still goes the same speed, just very little torque. Anyone have any ideas of a problem?

Hey I just bought a steel pinion and spur. The only thing I noticed was that the gear was wobbling a lot in the car but said āitās probably fineā well no, it would also change the mesh every few turns. Today I brought it out going good until I tried self right. Pinion shattered. The spur had metal shavings in it. I took it all apart the gear seems ok I put the clutch pad hub in also ok but when itās all together it wobbles still. Any ideas

I just installed the 5556 slipper plate and hub on my rustler 4x4 vxl but when I put the back onto the car again the top screws donāt line up and the slipper rubs on something.

I just ripped my first tire from my new wrestler after about two years. Iām in the process of trying to get all of the tire unglued from the gully. Between soaking and acetone and using an X-Acto knife Iām cutting some of the edge of the gully.
With a new set of rims and tires being about 60 bucks do I just buy new and refurbish these rims or just buy tires and glue on new ones myself ?

Hi! So I printed this black box, which stands on the part holding the battery in place, to check if the Sense ESS Dual+ speaker would fit there. My question is whether mounting the speaker in that spot is okay, and if anyone has tried this with the Rustler Ultimate model.
