FMS is really killing it with these mini trucks, I'm really glad to see that the Max Smasher is going to come with metal gear differentials. If you want to put oil in the Max Smasher diffs you could maybe use some gasket maker RTV.

Great!! I've ordered 4 diffs for my 2 fcx24, as they already have the metal transmission gears, and the weakest point now is the plastic diff... With this we would have the full driveline in bullet proof mode!!

Wanted to mention I put 1 Million weight diff fluid in my FMS metal open diffs and there is just a slight slippage, but its essentially locked. The little slippage actually makes it crawl better! Give it a try.
@2fmrc Жыл бұрын
I actually just did a truck with 1 million last wknd. Still got some grinding going on somewhere that I haven’t found yet. I think I know the issue but I gotta pull everything back apart to find out. Been sick the last few days so I haven’t got anything done lol. The 1 million seems like a good way to go though for sure!

Just pack the differential with silly putty & it will lock the differential without any harm. And if you want to revert it back, just take out the silly putty. I used to do it to the center differential in my OFNA - 1/8 scale Ultra LX Nitro Truggy.

@beemsquar1 Жыл бұрын
Loving these videos, I'm really learning a lot about crawlers. Would you lock both diffs or just the front? If you do lock, is there any issue running in high gear? Also can you recommend a basic tool kit/tool list that's needed to carry out the majority of upgrades on the FCX24? I'm in the UK, so we don't have access to some of the big retailers you guys can have.
@2fmrc Жыл бұрын
Really appreciate it! I prefer locking both diffs for crawling. Not too big of a deal running in high for crawling but if just bashing with something like the smasher I’d leave them open. The Injora tool kit is a really good set for the fcx24s. Not sure how hard they are to get in the UK but I use them a lot. amzn.to/3PgQS8q

Some silicone ear plugs in the diff work well for that. It locks them until they are in a pretty tight bind and then they’ll slip. Keeps from breaking stuff but as it wears in it’ll slip more and more. I usually end up locking with jbweld or something lol

Hmmm yeah maybe it could use a shim? I haven’t really had to bother with anything on the open diffs. The only issue I’ve had with them is the screw that holds the pinion gear will come loose after a bit if you don’t loctite it. Had it happen on a couple pretty quick so now I loctite them.

@Captain_Tool_Vicarious Жыл бұрын
Dude, honest to GWAR, just use silly putty or poster tack in your open diffs if you are short on cash. Make sure your driveshafts and drive train is metal upgraded before locking anything though. Also, if you're just running a FMS SMASHER V2, I wouldn't bother locking the front at all. Leave it open, at least a bit to get better tight steering. If both diffs are fully locked, and you're racing, you most likely will get smoked... Lol but for real, I used actual silly putty in my rear diffs of my racing SMT10 Mr. YUCK, And won both that seasons point racing championship and freestyle by a Longshot. I was however in the ProMod division.

... Wait. So I stripped down a SCX24 and put in an 8000kv Godzilla, 15 tooth pinion, and 2/12 worm gears, but still on SCX24 axles. It is _devouring_ front drives. CVDs and dog bones both. But I'm bashing it around like a monster truck. So switching axles would solve most of my issues?
