Yes. Some replace the shim behind the sun gear and pin with the larger Mugen shim. This helps protect the oring and pin.Hey, guys. RC veteran of 30 years here, but newbie to Arrma. Just got my v4 Kraton and took it for my first spin and love it! Totally agreed that 100k is too light in the center diff and I’m going to order some thinker fluid. But back to the main topic here - while I have it apart, does the v4 need to be shimmed any further? Sorry but all the various threads are confusing. And if so, what shims are recommended? Thanks!
Others add more behind the planetary gears as well. Most also shim the main gear and input gear to get them tighter meshed too.
