For some reason I cant get the MIP 08106 axles to fit. The axle shafts are too long and when the suspension compress it bottom out they hit the diff.

Looks to me like you have too much negative camber which could be causing the problem.

Does MIP make a ball diff that fits an SRT? If so has anyone tried it?

Testing out a different combinations of tires. This set is proline lugnut rear with proline pro-65 front.
I think the lugnut tires will do better in dry conditions. For the wet stuff I think the mini-pin is a better choice.

Very cool! :mrgreen:

Looks like your SRT runs pretty darn smooth there, and holds that track quite well.

Ever since I switched to the AE gears I've been getting loads of rocks and dirt crammed into the gears.
It makes loud clicking noise when the gear hits the little rocks...
I think I might switch back to the traxxas clutch gear setup which worked fine before.
This video was shot after going around the track like 3 times. That much dirt and rocks got wedged up that quick.
