Kraton 8S maintenance day!!

[@vensevenhelijunkie]

Thanks for the shout out! Had deja-vu watching this 🤣 My V2 had a leaflet included with manual showing 20mil centre diff. I had to check as manual showed something else.. Looks exactly same as yours lol. Pleasantly surprised! Apparently the ear plugs are slightly stiffer. I have some at the ready. Awesome vid man and love this truck!

[@BarstoneRC]

Thanks for watching buddy I appreciate it! But yeah at some point I’ll put the air plugs in it but I figured for now the 20 million pretty close so I would leave it alone.

[@vensevenhelijunkie]

@@BarstoneRC exactly that. Thank you Arrma! Was a scary job taking it apart first time. Really cool though.

[@donuttime2507]

Great video as always. fascinating to see the 8s range getting pulled apart.😎

[@BarstoneRC]

Thanks but I appreciate that! Yeah it’s been fun learning how to work on this thing and take it apart

[@paderbasherrc7666]

Nice video bro👍💪 you need a bigger table for this Baby 😎🤩💪and this drive shaft is twistet man 😧

[@BarstoneRC]

Yeah my table is not cutting it for this car LOL I’m gonna have to look into something bigger. Thanks for watching buddy

[@paderbasherrc7666]

@@BarstoneRC 😁it is so f...ing big this thing 🤪i love the work from arrma on every car they bring out😎don't just Bash. BLAST 💣💪Thanks to you bro i like your channel

[@BarstoneRC]

Yeah so far there hasn’t been a car they’ve made that didn’t look good and overall perform really great. Thanks buddy!

[@inspiredrc]

Great vid bro. I also added droop screws all round as well as changing out shock oil all round. Ive not had any issues with bent shock shaft yet. It doesn't take long to do but feel is worth doing. Dropped a vid on how to do it. May help. Keep up the good work.👍

[@BarstoneRC]

Thanks man I’ll come check out the video that’s probably a good idea to do to it.

[@norcalrc]

MMaintenance is key to a happy RC

[@BarstoneRC]

That’s for sure buddy! And the happier you when it doesn’t break down all the time LOL

[@camaroboy383]

That 20 mill is thick isn't it.. 😂.. tossed ya for a loop for a min. Good tear down video brother...thumbs up as always! 👍

[@BarstoneRC]

Lol yeah I wasn’t expecting that at all. But thanks buddy

[@camaroboy383]

@@BarstoneRC lol.. ya first time a saw that stuff I kind of had a double take as well.. 😱 Merch is looking good brother.😎..was finally able to check it out...👍

[@sokolum]

Even a expert can’t tell by driving that his center diff already was foreseen with silicon 😂🤣

[@BarstoneRC]

I really didn’t think the center was packed with that heavy of fluid because I was getting so much ballooning in the front wheels. Lol

[@leroy5202]

Doing maintenance on this looks so much harder than the Rustler 4x4 vxl.

[@BarstoneRC]

It can get a little complicated and the tools are bigger LOL

[@leroy5202]

@@BarstoneRC Did you sell your Rustler? Would not blame you. I have spent more than the purchase price of the vehicle on parts and upgrades.

[@BarstoneRC]

I did sell it I was tired of the overheating issues and it breaking every five minutes

[@cktennessee2356]

If your shock adjustment does not yield the desired result, maybe look into bladerless shocks. Nice Vid.

[@BarstoneRC]

They were a lot better but I just installed the M2C racing pistons valve kit. Hopefully I can take it out tomorrow and test it out. If I don’t like that I will try your suggestion next LOL. Appreciate the info

[@randall4411]

I'm surprised it wasn't full of dirt from the track did you hit it with air before you started

[@BarstoneRC]

I gave it a bath got all the dirt cleaned out before I tear things down I usually like to wash it.

[@Tegridy_Rc]

Nice video bro! Your channel is growing like a weed keep it up my man!!!

[@BarstoneRC]

Thanks buddy I appreciate it! Yeah it’s surprising how well it has been taking off I’m pretty excited!

[@navbes]

Really big parts on this truck. Nice vid buddy. Silicon in the center seems to be too "hard"?

[@BarstoneRC]

It feels just like ear plugs. It’s pretty stiff

[@joshherrman3201]

You will like those m2c shock pistons mine have made a big difference. On that back axle did you have to use heat to pull the grub screw that holds the hex pin on?

[@BarstoneRC]

I got the M2C pistons put in and took it to the track today and it made a huge difference on that thing man so much better. But no I did not have to use heat to remove that it came right out.
