It's best to buy some AE or Kyosho diff shims and fit the gearbox bevel gear tight agaist its pinion (small gear at end of drive shaft). Front and rear gearboxes. Any play there will potentially damage / strip the bevel gear on hard landings or crashes. Running with a looser slipper will protect the gear, but with 4wd most people want some punch on a grippy surface. It also depends on how powerful your motor is as well as driving style. So shim the diffs tight to be safe.
