Note: You must remove the
vehicle's gear cover to do

• Oil filled shocks will require regular maintenance due to the oil breaking
front shock
down or gets dirty. This maintenance should be performed after about
every 3 to 5 hours of use depending on conditions that the vehicle is used
in.
• Remove the shock from the vehicle.
• Remove the cap from the shock body and dispose of fluid.
• Disassemble the shock. Clean thoroughly with DYN5505. Dry parts before
assembly.
• Assemble the shock and refill the shock body with silicone fluid (30 weight
recommended).
• Slowly move the shaft and piston up and down to remove air bubbles.
• Move the piston to the midway point of the body and install the cap.
• Wipe off any overflowing fluid.
• When properly filled, the piston should rebound about 3/8 in (9.5mm) after
being pushed in fully.
• Install shock on vehicle.
ride height adjustment
Ride height is an adjustment that affects the way the vehicle jumps, turns and goes
over bumps. Drop one end of the vehicle from approximately 6 inches (152.4 mm) in
height onto a flat surface. When dropping the front of the vehicle, after the vehicle
settles make sure the front arms are equal and parallel to the flat surface. Do the
same with the rear and look at the rear to make sure both arms are parallel with
the flat surface.
Lower the front ride height to increase steering. Lower the rear ride height to
increase traction but decrease steering.
Gear mesh has already been set at the factory, and setting it is
only necessary when changing motors or gears.
Proper gear mesh (how gear teeth meet) is important to the
performance of the vehicle. When gear mesh is too loose, the
spur gear could be damaged by the pinion gear of the motor. If the
mesh is too tight, speed could be limited and the motor and ESC
will overheat.
• Loosen the two (2) motor screws.
• Put a small piece of paper between the pinion and
spur gears.
• Push the gears together while tightening the motor
screws.
• Remove the paper and the gears should move a
small amount.
• Reinstall gear cover.
