Wire drive question....

[Rcforever27]

Should i run the traxxas Teflon liner with a wire drive? I have a .187 flex drive on my other Spartan , and I'm not running one i'n that.... But i wasn't sure if i should with a wire drive setup... Thanks i'n advance....

Sure...use the stock liner...it has plenty of room but will keep the wire a bit cooler and quiet.

Ok thanks...

Yup, I just got my wire drive from Jeff the other day and I run it with the stock liner, I put 2 runs on it and after the second one I pulled it out, and there was still some grease left, and it wasn't all black and nasty like on the stock one.

I like to sand the wire with some 320 and then use some metal polish on them...very smooth and resists rust much better

[Rcforever27]

Sounds good I'll have to try that ... Still waiting for my bare hull to come off backorder.... This waiting is killing me.... I guess I'll just run my other Spartan for now while i wait lol... Thanks again!

just came back from being at my lake house for a week. probably burned through6 packs on 6s checked the wire drive and still had the marine grease all over it. from what ive seen and read this is a must have, very nice job jeff!!

Wire drives are definitely nice if you're able to use them.
