for the guys asking if this should be done everytime, I wouldn't do the bearings, the shock boot, or the axel boot everytime, but the hub and drive shaft section I would since its open to the elements and the first time you run it through dirt, the grease will get coated in dirt, unless you use this truck on pavement. The bearings, shock boot, and axel boot I would check probably every 4-6 sessions.
oh and also you don't have to take everything apart like this to get to the drive shaft and hub assembly, just look in there and spray it with a cleaner and regrease it.
Hey Losi. When I got my Losi 5T over the weekend, I noticed the center spur gear all greased up. The floor to the truck, under the spear gear, has grease as well. Why is this? Did the center diff leak during manufacture? What should I do?
Replace filter elements? I've never seen people just throw the filter away, they are meant to be cleaned and re-oiled many times, especially at their price points. In fact, its not usually to change the air filter in between heats because the stock filter is so small. Can't imagine the costs to just throwing them away.
