If the stuff thats 500,000 that looks like 30W is made my Associated i had the same thing happen. I called Amain where i bought it from and told them that i revieved 500,000 that was mislabeled and they said that Associated had some issues at the factory with there labels and they have been getting alot of complaints about it. They sent me some Kyosho 500,000 and refunded me for my troubles.

I bet thats whats going on with yours. No way the 500,000 should be thinner than the 200,000. The 500,000 is like playdoh. Really hard to get into diffs...lol

I would call wherever you got it from and complain. I run 500,000 in my center and love it so much more than the 200,000. Im thining of getting some 1 million to experiement with...
1mil might as well get some bad horsie diff lock grease lol http://www.badhorsie.com/products/diff-lock-grease.html

Lmao, yeah 1 million might be to much but ill never know if i don't try. I really like the 500,000 alot more than the 100,00. Thats just me personally. With 100,000 i was still getting more power to the front than i wanted. To each there own. I run 500,00 center, 100,000 front, and 50,000 rear. I like it but im always looking to improve. You might be right though, 1 million might be overboard.
 
Changing it up got me a badlands and I like this size better

Video is in beginning of video n market 13:40

Trust me when I tell you this, that other pinion will not last long. Get a Robinson Racing pinion put threadlocker on the motor shaft as well as the grub screw.

Will try this next time my pinion comes loose. Seems to come loose every 4th or 5th battery run, using blue loctite.
 
Nice. What esc/motor/gearing combo are you running in he xmaxx?


Have a few Xmaxx
Castle 2028 X max 6 x 21/50 55mph
Dynamite (losi dbxle Motor) X max6 X 21/50 51mph
Leopard X max5 X 21/50 or bigger soon (tbd)



. I’m putting different setup today hopefully can test today as well.

Nice. I am putting in a HW max5 with leopard 5892 1340kv 31-32/54 gearing. Going to be running mad max wheels/tires.
 
Im surprised nobody else has tossed this out there but get yourself a kit of black metric nylon washers. I use them for shims on nearly everything suspension related to get rid of all the slop. They also make handy spacers for well lots of stuff... just get them and youll find uses for them everywhere. Lol!
