• Driveshafts and Links: Inspect metal driveshafts and links for any signs of wear, bending, or damage. Lubricate universal joints if required.
• Axles and Transmission: The transmission is designed to be dustproof. However, occasional inspection for debris ingress and proper lubrication of moving parts (gears, bearings) is recommended.
• Tires: Check tires for wear, cuts, or punctures. Ensure they are securely glued to the wheels.
• Shocks: Inspect shocks for leaks or damage. Ensure smooth operation and proper damping.
