g maxx revo diffs

[lind5]

hi i have a g maxx revo with a g maxx single speed gear box can any one tell me why it would be better to use 1/8 buggy diffs

and im building a bl lst2 would i be better off using diffrent diffs in this
(ie muggy diffs or are these no diffrent)

thanks guys

1/8th diffs are stronger and handle brushless power better. Obviously this isn't a problem unless you are busting stock diffs left and right. My stock ones hold up fine for me.

Another note is that it also changes your gearing options.

nice one cheers mate havent broke any diffs yet but i have snapped the traxxas cvd,s gone back to stock and they seem ok at the moment

the stock shafts have always held up great for me, I don't like the noise of CVD's either and in my experience they are more prone to failure.

I crushed the rear diff in my G-revo, using a 9xl and 5s on a quark 125. I know run a 1515/2.5d (1700kv) with 5s and same 125 esc, the 1/8 diffs are holding great. The current setup is almost twice as strong as the 9xl at the same kv. If you plan for high volt or real power setup, I really suggest the 1/8 conversion. best investment i ever made for an RC
