Yea, it's possible. Only stipulation is that you need a Gorilla chassis or something of the sort, and you already have that covered.

Here is a couple pics of my old setup with a center diff. Promod has one and check out maxx bling as well.

Where would you get the diff and how do you know which to use? thanks guys?

coolhandcountry 07.09.2006 12:50 PM

I got mine from ebay. The mbx ofna buggy diff. It is a good idea to get one that takes the plasic spur gear.

neweuser 07.09.2006 02:50 PM

Ok, thanks. So what would be good gearing for using a center diff if i'm using UE diffs?

squeeforever 07.09.2006 07:26 PM

I would start abour 15/51

neweuser 07.10.2006 10:46 AM

thanks Squee....can you guys tell me the pros and cons to do this type of mod to an emaxx? would it be worth it?

Here's a thing i wrote on the LST forum,it's about one-ways but much of the same princple applies.it's a long post.Basically it'll give more steering in certain condtions and it'll kill the wheeles.http://www.lstcentral.com/modules.ph...er=asc&start=0

i lost interest in that thread when the guy said this:"Since the load factor is not that much since it's EP":005:

truggy f/r diffs would be better,it'd let you use a smaller spur that'd fit lower between the rails without grinding on them or raising the diff as much or running low rpms.Alternatively,you can run a diff in the e-maxx tranny like Mike does.

neweuser 07.10.2006 02:20 PM

How do you run the diff in the tranny, just the gear? I guess my interest was getting rid of the tranny. thanks for the link gustav!

squeeforever 07.10.2006 02:22 PM

It would be something like what Traxxas designed for the Revo.

neweuser 07.10.2006 09:05 PM

I have never seen the Revo to be honest...well, not one that's not BL anyway, and even still, never seen the set up up close!

squeeforever 07.10.2006 09:17 PM

Go look at it at Traxxas.com. They designed a diff for the tranny as well. It's pretty nice. I THINK that it could possibly be adapted to the Maxx tranny.

I dunno squee. That looks like the same diff they use in the front/rear with a gear instead of the angled spur. I wonder if it will hold up? It's one thing to have BL power spread amongst the front and rear diff, but that center one will have to take the full power. I guess there's only one way to tell: pick one up and see if it fits and will be sturdy enough...

Accually brian the diff in the center has less pressure.
The front and back has about 3 times the torque applied to them. By running a center diff it accually takes some pressure off the others as well to. If one is unloaded it takes the pressure off the other. While with a trans it gets full load shifted to the one one ground. If you get what I am saying.
