UE diffs question with MIP

[RC Fan 4 Life]

Will MIP CVDs work with UE's diffs on the e-maxx?

[squeeforever]

yea, the rdlogics however are a tad short. the rest should work....

yep, i have the 8 spider diffs and run mip cvds:)

agreed, I ran MIP CVDs with UE spyder 6s. I am running the UE 6mm CVDs now, and I like them better. Why? Because there is no pin through the axle. There is a hex on the shaft that engages the 14mm hex nut instead. I'm still using the MIP cups on the tranny outputs with UE bones in the center.

What powertrain are you running?

I had that pin come half way out of the center drive and it cracked the stock chassis........one of the hex screws came off...even though i had put locktite on them and waited 24 hours before use. :031:

Couldn't have been good. For the axle, I was referring to the pin that goes through the axle as the drive mechanism for the 14mm nut and not the pin for the coupler. I think Misbehavin' on the Traxxas forum has an article on putting shrink tube or something over the couplers to help keep dirt out and the pin in. It's been awhile though since I looked for the tip. If you want it and don't find it, one of us can probably find the link without much trouble.

Can you dig up that link? I found yet another pin missing.
