My MMax and 8xl is an absolute blast to drive. Very powerful setup and reasonable runtimes. If you'd like more runtime you can get the 9xl, I'm sure it would still rock, else get more batts and/or lipos.

As far as diffs: are you driving an EMaxx Emaxx? :) I would say no. My emaxx diffs never lasted (crappy 2mm screws break) even with titans and the alu cases and bulkheads. It may be a bit better if you used 2nd gear only and locked the drive dog to the 2nd gear output in the tranny so the gears don't spin around & slam together every time you brake or reverse. (obvious what I mean if you look at the tranny.)

Still tho I would upgrade. I have yet to trash my stock Revo diffs (w/ locked Emaxx tranny) in 2 mos of hard BL use for what its worth.
