Well I figured I would start a thread based on the different tweaks/mods people have done to their EB410's to get them were they are now. I am not referring to upgrades but small things that you have noticed that make a difference in durability or handling that you did.
Ones I have done.
Simple mods/tweaks for function/durabilty;

Simple mods/tweaks for function/durabilty;
- Adding 2mm spacers where the rear shocks mount to the arms. This pushes them out just a touch so the springs don't contact the rear drive shafts.
- to shed weight I found plastic nuts to retain the wing mount screws, servo arm ball stud and rear braces.
- use the side fan mount and some heat shrink tubing to secure the antenna down inside the body.
- diff shims to bump out hub bearings to take out any slop (if any).
- using TLR 3.5mm shock limiters as apposed to the MIP shock cartridge set. You can accomplish the same thing by simply putting a thin washer between the x-rings.
- when using 2mm diff riser in combination with the upper hole on the Exotek rear hubs the stock drive shafts will fall out when the suspension drops. I fixed this by slightly filing down the ball end of some HB 73mm driveshafts. This actually works great! I just didn't need this extreme of a setting for my driving/track. So I went back to no shim. I did this when playing with setups and experimenting with their affects.
