No Diff rebuilds front, center or rear. Please shim your diffs and they will hold up to ANYTHING you can throw at them. The buggy tires will break traction before you break a diff if they are assembled correctly...

Give the LX2e a second try, they are the best buggy for the price... The only "upgrade" it needs is an aluminum rear toe plate. after that its a TANK.
It was a bad design when it debuted, its still a bad design today.

Hobao 7 > LX line any day of the week. I'd rather convert a Hyper 7 than buy a LX2 based buggy.

For budget 1/8 e-buggies right now I'd be all over the Nexx8, its actually meant to race and compete on an even level and its an evolution of the Jammin series cars which have proven track records.
