Hi All, I'm a newbie to 1/8 onroad nitro RC. I have an Xray Rx8 2013. I just wanted to ask about maintenance. So far my list includes: 1. Engine - use after run 2. 1st gear and front axle one-way bearings - Clean and one-way lube 3. Thrust bearing - clean and grease with graphite grease 4. Clutch - check clutch gap and end play 5. Air filter - clean and oil using filter oil 6. ball bearings - oil using bearing oil 7. Wipe down chassis with a towel Is there anything else I need to do to maintain the car and minimize failures? Thanks in advanced. |

- lube one way bearings with oneway lube (gearbox and front one ways) - lube dogbones with premium lube ore some light grease - check shocks for air (less often) - clean inside 2nd gear (moving parts cause allot of alu wear on shoe and bell) - check if suspension still moves freely without shocks attached. |
