JJ JB Weld RTV. I like it better from the CA because it cleans easy. The cars will be here for another ten days so they will be checked a few times more before the race. Thanks Pete. I wanted to make sure you were still using the same thing. I saw that in an earlier post. Thank you.

The Sil-poxy has been working well for me as I mentioned in this post here. Did you receive your Sil-Poxy? The RTV works well also, I just like the Sil-poxy better.

I do want to try what Gale is using. I did pick up Ultra Grey, advanced Formula Maximum Torque Gasket Maker from Permatex. The Maximum Torque is what sold me, I figured, Yeah I need the high torque. I wish there was a way to high spin balance the rear slip on axle. Hol-lotta shaking going on.

I agree our rear tires could use balancing. Seems there is power being lost there.

Might be able to use the old two razor method on a level surface. I will give that a try. You would have to have a complete rear end assembly to do that, one that snaps into a chassis as pulling the wheels of and replacing them would change the balance.

Has anyone ever had success converting the 4gear chassis to a snap in assembly?

I know Rick has used this method and said it worked well.....FYI. nitroslots.com/thread/2466/blacktop-raceway-texas-club-eagleracing?page=72

Gale I did two or three and I followed Eagles how to and I’ve had really good luck with the ones I’ve done and it’s pretty simple and clean. My Aces Wild Willy’s had that setup. Thanks Jeff for finding that link. Rick

Thanks Jeff & Rick! Appreciate the link and info! Once I went to the "how to", I remembered reading it before. At the time, I didn't understand the value of it so never put it in the hard drive .
