ofcourse the bearings needs to be replaced
the nickel coated pivoballs have been installed since my lhs got them.

All the consumeable items you pointed out were replaced plus these: Frt & rear pinion gears/shafts Frt one-way output shafts Adjustable ball diffs disassembled and maintenane done. Replaced all bearing needed Sevos were changed from the beginning. Xray stock servos didnt last after break-in. Hitec 85MG/BB/HT/HS were installed. Differance, they have Ball Bearing on te output shafts. Only one other mod was done. Adding a 6 cell NiMh AAA Battery pack was added. Been lucky with the Toki engine. After 5 1/2 gallons of fuel. It's still running strong. W/good compression. Waiting for it to wear out. Nickle Plated Pivot Balls were installed 1 1/2 gallons ago. to early to say. I think thet will last as long as the model |

'A' arm, was it in the rear, it wore out??? It took me a while to free up the bind to had. The rear doesnt move as much as the frt does. Same with the M18 I just assembled. I t does move as much. I'll let you know when I find out. |
