Kraton Kraton 4s pinion gear change to 15 T

How do you like the 15T pinion? I have one waiting to go on after I am done messing around with speed runs on a 20T.

More torque more top speed and faster backflips. I think 15t is the limit you hit near 60mph on 15t. I will never go back. I feel the truck is less stressed on 15t too because it pulls wheelies easily vs 13 who is a struggle sometimes. You can even run a loose slipper clutch(i mesn loose in the sense it wont wheelie on 13t much) and able to wheelie with ease.

I experienced the same 15T is much quicker and wheelies are easier?

Nah, get a rubber hammer and start bashing it flat. And that spur is very wobbly! I think you found the issues!

Now thing is yeah maybe i will manage to get the motorplate flat again but the wobble of the spur gear makes me have a headache, because it is really not my fault that its wrong produced and the car is only 2 months old , and I don't want to buy a new spur gear. Should I try to use my warranty ?

Get the arrma differential shims who are from the crown gear side of the 3-4s diffs use them on the bearings of the spur gear and it will stop the spur from moving too much

Did you manage to hammer your motor plate flat? I noticed my car was making a similar sound, but slightly less pronounced. I just disassembled everything while changing the pinion, and sure enough the plate is bowed out about 1mm in the middle.
