Most of the people here, have got the stock diffgears, with an aluminum cup and an aluminum diff case.

The thing with the gears that sit in the diff (and the ringgear/pinion) that is that they are modified by traxxas (i read this on another forum) and they are as good as the RR gears now.

if the diffhousing and the diffcup has got no flex, the gears will be doing fine.

BUT in your case, i would use UE diffs for SURE!

I am a person who likes to be on the save side, i bought a set of UE 8spiders too, and i a going to drive my maxx with a 22 serie lehner motor on about 18-24 cells in the future. and a 7XL and a centerdiff to start with.. (lightweigt big motor setup on 12-14 cells)

I asked FLM if they are going to make the 1/8th diff bulkless fit the savage diffs, he told me, that he thought of that too, and perhaps getting them adapted to fit. (that would be a nice, rather cheap, yet heavy duty differential. I can make a very good and bulletproof savage diff. It needs a HB lighting diffcup, lightning hardened crosspins and the savage gears. So if you decide to do so, please let me know, i will give you some tips if needed.

though i don't know how long it takes, before they have adapted those bulkless things.. (would not take long, when i could make them.. ;) ) Perhaps Mike can ask him again?

And the shocks your using are the Hotbodies threated.
