replace it when the shoes have worn down uneven, or when the spring breaks or has no spring left in it. I periodically sand my shoes and clutch bell down so its always like brand new.

sweet thanks. do you kno anything about the mip clutch? i was thinking about getting it but im not sure if itll have an advantage to it since im only running the stock motor.

thats the only 2 shoe clutch il run so yes i know about it. I like it because its adjustable because you can choose to have a snap engagment were it just goes more snappy when you hit the gas or you can put it on the lower setting and have it grab normal. My last set i had got about 4 gallons on them before the spring finally gave way. Definatly an awesome clutch and i would highly recommend it.

how much poorer is it gonna make me? lol

15 bucks about

thanks guys

not a problem

Just picked up an extended chassis from snakebite . Looks like the revo is gonna be a super stretch monster truck lol. Chassis is 1in longer up front, and the arms will add another 3/4 out back. I hope 1 3/4in extension isn't too much...

jeez.....what i could do with 1 3/4 inch extension......well i dont need one i dont have enough power yet.

Wow... nice. What clutch would you guys reccomend for use with the RB .23?? the XTM .18?? could I transfer the one I would have on the .23 to the .18??

And Ryan... Where did you get that carbon fiber throttle servo mount?? I have the regular Teckno RC one but that thing is awesome... I think I am enjoying this whole basher turned racer transformation... (Anyone have a use for the center and rear portion of the HCR skid??? LoL)

got it from http://www.xtremeracing.com

Stock clutch should work ok for the XTM. I think most guys running the 323 use stock as well. Check your clutch every couple of tanks and see how its holding up.

Really... So the MIP clutch would be a good upgrade for either of those motors as well...?? What about some 3-shoes?? And how do they compare to the MIP 2-shoe?

I'd go with the Traxxas clutch shoes. 4146X. I had good results with them. 3-shoe ? you talking Crazy nut set-up ?

My honest recommendation would be to try using either the Mip or hop-up traxxas shoes before you spend the money on a new flywheel, shoe and spring set-up.

Gotcha... if that is plenty then never mind. I just thought it may be a little "under grippy" with the power of the .23. If it isn't then I have no problem staying with traxxas shoes or the MIP clutch...

You should be fine. Just keep an eye on it.

Traxxas clutch shoes are really nice shoes. IF they had them in a size 14 i would wear them .

Size 14 ???? Damn we just found bigfoot !!!!!!!

The stock traxxas clutch is good stuff. If it ain't broke don't fix it! I'm still using the factory clutch that came with the truck (about 5 gallons on it) and it still works great. Last time I took of the clutch bell to inspect at the trophy race I noticed that the spring was starting to rust a little and the shoes looked a tad worn. Not bad I say for that kind of use. So instead of trying some new setup, I'm just picked up another traxxas clutch .

Since I missed out on ordering the Revo extended rear arms from amain, I found them in stock at bocarc.com. The guy said they just got them in today and they have about 12 pairs left, needless to say I ordered some up. Just figured I'd pass it along in case anybody's interested.

Cool just orderd mine

I was using a stock Traxxas clutch w/ my Sirio .23 and it held up just fine.

ok my castle thiniges are coming loose and i kno that a few people use set screws to hold them in. what size set screw do i need? and what size bit do i need to drill the hole for it. thanks in advance

castle thingy?? Help me out here... I have no idea what you are referring to...
