I rather like that center pin support and it helps keep the diff case from flexing. Either way, it's about time Trx made a diff worth the material it was made of...

Yea, plus they added a 3rd spider, which is a good thing.

Why I am shocked, because it is only $20. So what can it be fitted to? It doesn't even say on the site what it is for.

Yeah, it kinda had my hopes up too.

It's time to replace yet another rear diff in my E Revo.

The first rear diff failure was some broken teeth on the pinion.

This second one stripped out the spider gears.

I know we're putting alot of power to the ground now, but I really wish there was a bullet proof option.

Might take some custom fabbing, but this should do it.

What can be done to upgrade the stock E Revo diffs?

I'm seeing Aluminum Diff Cases and Cups. Do they really help that much?

Well, the aluminum cups do flex less so they should save the spider gears. Shimming the ring/pinion perfectly can help those. Other than that, the best thing to use is probably Mike's 8th scale Revo diffs. Or, just use lots and lots of punch control.

That was scary. I thought for sure you were going to post a pic of a Barca Lounger recliner chair. That is one nice looking BMW diff though.
