I set my axles up with the stock gears and VP trans cases and motor plates do I need to replace the bearing in the link mount as well? Or should I replace the link mounts with VP parts as well?

Let me edit my question here I did some reading and answered my own question on the link mount but I haven't seen anywhere that people are changing this bearing. Do I need to put a bushing here?

Hello,
a "bigger" bearing is supported with the VP upper link mount, use it ;-)

Excellent thanks I'll order those then.

You'll need both the link mounts and the upper axle halves from VP if you want to replace that last little 8mm bearing with a 10mm one. A lot of guys just use a bushing from either VP or Traxxas in that spot.

That's what I thought it said on vp's site I'll pick up some bushings and save that money for now then.

I was driving today and my two outside screws holding the servo into the servo mount striped out. Is there any aftermarket aluminum ones that anyone recommends.
I did find some on ckrc but would like to stay away from there.

You can try Golden Horizon... Their parts aren't the best, but they do offer a metal servo mount that seems to work pretty well.

if you have a aluminum servo mount for like a ax10 you can use one of those with a vp front link mount which comes with a aluminum servo mount but just the side towards the middle of the axle..

If you strip out your wheels bead lock screws 4-40 X 1 1/4 stainless steel counter sunk screws work great
If the wheels are new and have never had a screw in them, will the 4-40's thread in easily and is 1" in length long enough (24.5mm=1.0")?

Yes they will work fine, i just did this about a week ago and they work great."thumbsup"
Brandon,
Are you still running the wraith rear lockouts? If so, did you have to modify axels (shorten, lengthen) or were you able to use different axel part #'s? I found one thread showing cutting & braising the long side. I think this would destroy the integrity of the axel strength.
Thank you.

Hello Guys, Are there any place i can still get a XR10 kit ?
Found my kit a couple of weeks ago on EBAY... seller Name "RC_GO" I know sounds dodge but it was sent really quick, with no issues & with all the factory seals! "thumbsup"
I also have a questions though what would be the best pinion gear count to run with 55T Holmes motors, I still have not received them as yet but want the gears ready for when they arrive...
