You are right. The RC8 for example uses 4.3 diff ratio. I used the HB buggy diffs to do my speed runs and now the truggy diffs are back in for some fun times . My MBX5T had the buggy diffs as well and now it has the truggy diffs for again some fun times . Shimming is a must with the 4.3 truggy ring gear and pinion.
