I've just bought a used 6S Kraton from another forum. Photos show the truck is in great condition. It was a V3 that has had most V4 updates added to it (aside from motor mount) along with upgraded aluminium braces, steering servo and titanium steering plates.. Apparently only ever run on 4S.
Obviously I doesn't come with a guarantee but the seller seems decent guy so if there was an obviously damaged diff or similar hopefully we'd be able to come to an arrangement to get it fixed. The only issue is, aside from visual inspection of suspension etc, I don't know what sort of things to look for. Are there any checks I can easily do on the drive-train (differentials etc) when it arrives just to check that it is not a lemon?
Lastly, I think there were diff shims added on the V4 model. I don't believe these were added to my V3. Can they/should they be considered?
Any thoughts gratefully received.
Cheers.
