He doesn't want to admit it but this all came from the complete lack of slipper clutch maintenance and the lack of general maintenance hence all the rust . Slipper was set too loose and the heat from the slipper caused the failures. He should of also inspected the diffs because I bet the stock grease is burnt off. This is a great example of someone that rides her hard and puts her away wet. But we should be thankful since these are the people that support this hobby the most. Since they are buying parts constantly.
Hi Zed orda, indeed with your comment. I work with vehicle mechanics and most of case are from lacks of knowledge from basic of vehicle parts and operator maintenance. Netcruzer RC TECH CARS it might not apply to you or do but thank you for your sharing with us. Even if video was not perfect for some due to all issues you got in this video; you mentioned the 2 holes for both different diagrams that make me learn about to not doing this mistake lol. Traxxas website does video to maintenance our vehicle wet/dry/snow conditions and also now to upgrade it too. Differential oil should be looks at after each about 10hrs running so 20 times battery charge if like mine run about 30-40 minutes. Cheers.
Bought these parts today at my local shop. Even added the telemetry because it was only $3 and I already had it apart. Kinda bummed when I got home & realized I should've just bought another 6893X, shaft & spur gear and had a complete replacement ready to go in the toolbox. I'm just getting started, my parts are still in excellent condition. I'm just trying to beef up the weak spots before I have issues.
My opinion is that your slipper may have been a little too loose and that made too much heat and melted everything. I have a 1/10 rally also and have a 4s hobby wing in it and have had no issues. The Revo spec slipper you installed will help ALOT. I did the same but it still wasn't right in my eyes so i bought a center diff kit and it made the car sooooo much easier to handle. I like your hot racing motor mount. That may be the next upgrade for me, just because it looks nice.
There's a HUGE mistake made here during the install of this particular upgrade in this video regarding where to put the pin through the shaft! (6:00). The stock position when using the STOCK pressure plate (5556) is indeed the last/outside hole (closest to rear diff). HOWEVER, once you upgrade to the 5351 pressure plate, you MUST use the second, inside hole, furthest from the differential side!!! Not doing so may 'essentially' still work 'initially' but the pressure plate will be rubbing against the rear differential housing, and eventually, at some point, will bind and seize to it altogether...
@@netcruzer It would be interesting to see what your rear dif housing looks like now ;) .... There's nothing more fun than bashing the Slash in the snow! You're in the Ottawa area as well apparently?! Cheers bro...
just installed this slipper upgrade in my truck. only used mine 4 times and one of the original slipper pads was in 2 bits couldnt even find half of it.
So I’m trying upgrade my slipper clutch went to the hobby store they only sold me part # 5352R and 5351 is that all I need or do i also need the magnet also they are saying I don’t need it ?
Not performance, reliability for when running 3S it’s good to do this. A lot of heat is generated at that motor mount and on that bearing. It can melt stock if using 3S a lot.
According to Traxxas, the completely FLAT sides of the pads go against (i.e. face) the steel disc/plate which they rub against ("critical" for maximum friction). Thus the sides with the rounded edges should face the front of the truck, towards the spur gear. In other words, the rounded edges should be facing DOWN when placing them onto the pins of the hub!
Umm, there's way too much rust on that slash. Have you EVER cleaned that? Do you just drive it in the rain and leave it out when you're done? CLEAN your truck! Your slipper assembly most likely melted because you had seized bearings because you didn't take care of your truck... Just trying to help you out!
I oil it from time to time but it has definitely been in water many times and has the rust to show for it. Also the water is kinda salty around my area so I avoid washing it unless I have fresh rainwater to use.
Yeah I'm dissapointed I couldn't do more action shots. I really want to get a video of doing some full speed snow action with the paddle tires. It will happen but now we have TOO MUCH snow.

I love the vid… thanks for the tips. I’ve just ordered the parts. I am going to do it. 😝

Great info. I still have the slash but it hasn’t been used in a long time. I’ll check where that pin is now.

You're in the Ottawa area as well apparently?! Cheers bro...
Good video, but you need to get a led shop light, it was kinda dark and hard to see.
Yeah lighting was improved last fall. This video is old now.
just installed this slipper upgrade in my truck. only used mine 4 times and one of the original slipper pads was in 2 bits couldnt even find half of it.
The Slash is a great rc! Subscribed!
I kno this video is 6 years old, but if the bearing is bigger than stock, won’t the slipper/center diff be loose inside the bigger bearing?
Invest in lights
So I’m trying upgrade my slipper clutch went to the hobby store they only sold me part # 5352R and 5351 is that all I need or do i also need the magnet also they are saying I don’t need it ?
need better lighting
Was your mesh set correctly? Did you strip gears?
Will this mod work on the rustler 4x4vxl?
Yes absolutely! Same mount
I'm confused, its way faster but is this because of the upgraded revo slipper clutch???
I'm guessing his old slipper wasn't tight enough and it didn't put the power down very well. Now that it's tighter it accelerates faster.
So with my slash being stock, will this improve the performance in any way ?

@@netcruzer ok thank u bro..
what full telemetry first time hearing of this. kinda of a newb still learning
Joseph O'Donnell temp, voltage, and rpm sensors. Traxxas telemetry module upgrades.
Will this upgrade allow my to run bigger tires?
No!
It don't matter
No. It will not.
THAT COLD WEATHER SEEMS TO BE BAD ON TRAXXAS PLASTIC. :/
Which way do aluminum pads go on? With symbols up or down
According to Traxxas, the completely FLAT sides of the pads go against (i.e. face) the steel disc/plate which they rub against ("critical" for maximum friction). Thus the sides with the rounded edges should face the front of the truck, towards the spur gear. In other words, the rounded edges should be facing DOWN when placing them onto the pins of the hub!
What are you using as your spur and pinion
What body is that ?
Jon Ragan my best guess is the Pro-Line Volkswagen bug body. It's great for bashing!
I like arrma fury
That's a 2WD short course?
🤔 Now Hop up the carriers and you will never break one again depending on you driving‼️
Umm, there's way too much rust on that slash. Have you EVER cleaned that? Do you just drive it in the rain and leave it out when you're done? CLEAN your truck!

Netcruzer RC TECH CARS understandable.
Wd 40 after runs
Would this be suitable for 3s lipo
+dus k absolutely. That's why I did it.
Yep. Put a fan on your esc and possibly your motor and you're good to go.
Your not havin much luck are you!Trashed slipper then a broken a arm.
To dark. I can't see
rrene gadoo turn up the brightness on your screen lol.
That's what Caitlyn Jenner says
Faaaaaast
