Got some diffs off of ebay finally. I got them installed in my G3R and posted a thread about it in that forum. Here's the thread.

I also am trying something different to secure the diffs in the bulkhead.

There's more pictures of that method in the thread I linked to above.

Thanks for putting in the link to your pictures MisterCrash. The one earlier in this thread are dead so I snuck into you photobucket to see your LST differential pictures before I started on mine.

I ran into the problem with the LST diff cups are shallower then the stock ones I was running with the stock revo differentials. The LST cups make the Trx Steel cvds to short and they pop out too easy. I've got the knuckles screwed in as far as I can. I might be able to do some more dremel work to end of the arms and get more steering and clearance to allow the knuckles to be screwed in a little more. If I can't find longer cups from another 1/8th differential. I will probably be switching back to the stock axles. Maybe the summit ones but will need the shafts that mike sells to do it with. If I come up with and solutions I will post. Any ideas on stretching the steel shafts another mm would be helpful.

Another thanks To HPI for making the savage bulkhead so easy. Man I don't want to open up the G3R to get to the bulkheads again anytime soon. Three times in a week is plenty for me.
