My TRX CD in my nitro powered 3.3 Revo w/500,000 wt still diff out.

If you bash,considering staying with the tranny as is.

Murphy's Law- "If It Aint Broke, Don't Fix It ?

I have said it before and I'll say it again, sjcrss is the one that came up with this idea of an 8th scale CD that can be done without the help of a machinist. All questions and PMs should be directed to him :mdr: Whatever I come up with using a different gear will be derived from HIS original ideas so even questions about that CD should be directed to scjrss :lol:

It comes filled with 500k, and people still say that's way too thin. The problem is it only has 2 spider gears instead of 4 like in normal 1/8 diffs. Less gears means less ability for the viscous oil to apply resistance.

People have tried all kinds of diff lock greases and thick stuff in it. I'm not sure how successful they've been though. It sounds like 1/8 hybrid is the way to go if you want a CD. I'm only speaking from what I've read, but once I build mine I'll let you know how it works.

Thanks MC

Not to argue w/you Jason but the CD comes w/100K, I had to buy 500K to refill mine and it was much thicker than the stock fluid.

Is 500K about the thickest fluid you can go with?

Trying to start $h1t with me huh? That's it, I'm coming back down there to have some words with you.

Bondo is right it's 100k. But someone should tell Impakt RC:

I think 500k is pretty close to max as far as silicone oil. I know there are several "diff lock" products on the market, but I think they are more like greases/pastes/putty.

EDIT: According to some other forum posts I just read there is 750k and 1M weight silicone oil, but it's kind of tough to find.

Bring it Kid ! :whistle::lol:
When we get done scraping we'll hit the track !
Did you get my email w/the news I got a buggy finially ?

really?
ok then in that case i'm gonna put this kyosho 500k to replace the std oil in the revo center diff and see if that makes it any better...

From experience, sjcrss knows his diff well. It was cheap to make, and I would highly reccommend it. The stock diff is junk!! Also, since credit is being gave here, was it not my idea to put the 1/8 directly into the case dude? LOL

gotta bust my chops eh...it was YOUR idea...I just implemented it...lol, and figured the in' & outs on how to make it work...Thanks T

So just to make sure we are clear: neweuser came up with the idea, mistercrash created it all, and sjcrss ripped it off and tried to take credit for everything? sounds about right :wink:

Anyway, just got the last required parts today for the Thunder Tiger hybrid version. Hopefully will start the build soon, so expect some questions all you guys who've already made one of these.

LMAO, thats a good one....hehehehe.... Newe and I we talking and he had a idea to put a 1/8 scale diff in the erevo, but kinda like the original slipperential, I then decided to see if i could make one fit into the erevo tranny, and did some fitting ect. and came up with the design I used and supplied to MC, he made a great tutorial on how to make the diff...however MC did come up with some design tweeks of his own, that i will not take credit for, cause they were his idea's.... this about sums it up...

Delusions of Grandur right there nooby...if you peep sjcrss's sig, you can plainly see there the ideas. In fact, I wanted to stick a 1/8th diff in an FLM tranny case for years. Just never took the time to do it and Mike came out with the slipperential anyways, so there was no need for one.
