LOL nice

I only have 2wd right now because I just blew the rear diff (then swapped) after I got my G3's lipo packs. I plan to get the RCM hybrid diffs for it.

The diff had two screws worn away on the inside, and one of them was completely sheared off... I don't really know how that can happen in the first place? But the whole thing was held on by 3 of the 4 screws, but they were stripped, so the ring and pinion was popping, and the fragments from the screws just stayed inside with the spider gears and got ground up, spiders are fine however. IMO, it's the diff case screws which are the weak point; Traxxas really needs to address this problem too, they are being so cheap about it. I mean really, how much does 3mm screws cost?
