Obviously this video is 2 years old but I have only just begun my rc journey and your videos, along with numerous others, have been very useful to me! Thank you sir and have a great day 😀

Just bought a Kraton 6s after a long hiatus from RC. When do you recommend changing out the stock bearings and is there anything else to upgrade around the same time while gaining access. Also, do the bearings need to be lubed up when replacing or for general maintenance. Cheers!

My idea to make wheel bearings last longer is to take out the inside seal of each bearing and pack some grease in side the housing between bearings before fitting shaft.

Ahh okay good shout, how do you re-seal them after though?

@@bournemouthrc4371 you can use a needle to pick the seals out, repack with grease and pop the seals back in. BUT what i am saying is take seal out one side of bearing and leave it out! Fit the bearings with the seal facing outwards to stop dirt getting in. Pack grease between the bearings then fit the shaft. This is how i will be doing mine soon as them larger bearings dont last very long.

@@andrewcross1740 ahh I see makes sense, have you tried it yet? I wonder how often you would have to re grease as you would lose some out the space between bearing and shaft. I really like the idea though I may do the same👍👍

@@bournemouthrc4371 Not done it yet, but will be soon. Dont think much would be lost as the only way out is like you say between shaft and bearing which is a reasonable fit anyway. Plus you can add a shim to the bearing so there is less end float between bearings and shaft hex etc (just use the same shim you use to shim the crown wheel on the diffs) Would love to find a way of making the CVD's sealed! got rubber boots on my vkar bison and the cvd's are a good as new still!
