I have Hot Bodies buggy and truggy diffs in stock(work just as well as the UE diffs-the truggy diffs offer more reduction as well). FYI. Your guess is as good as mine on the servo savers, though.

10/43 vs 13/43 of the buggy diffs. :) Almost 25% more reduction(perfect for a center diff driven truck)

I not entirely sure what you mean,

So are they as Strong as the UE diffs? Will the fit a stock style E-Maxx bulkhead. Do they come with diff cases like the UE's ?

Thanks

The HB diff do not include cases, but are otherwise similar in strength and size to the UE diffs. The HB diffs would need hybrid bulkheads to work in an e-maxx( or UE cases, which aren't currently available). The Hybrid bulks are a great upgrade, too.

The Hotbodies diffs are better than the UE 6 spiders. the UE's uses cheap pot-metall gears, the HB's are unbelievable tough. very tough gears inside, and it uses hard chromed crosspins as well.

My tip; get the HB's. they are helical cut as well, (more helical than the UE's) so they run more quite as well.

wow, I thought I'd never hear a comment that was not in UE's favor. From the packing list, it was my understanding that within my UE Spyder6s, the gears are OFNA to begin with. I also didn't expect to see the recommendation for plastic cases over aluminum. I'm afraid of hybrids with the number of obstacles my MT has encountered. Am I being too concerned about the durability of the hybrid bulks?

no, they are crap, compared to the HB/Kyosho/Ofna cups. You really don't need aluminum cups, your better of with the tough plastic of the earlier named brands.

How much will a pair of the HB diffs cost me compared to the 8 spyder diffs? And does any of you have some pics of them to post?


The name is Alawi. You can call me Al.
Nice to meet you!

The cost is about the same. The diffs look about the same, too. :)

Coolhand - The "ofna" diffs you got from me are the same as the UE 8 spyder diffs(or should I say the UE 8 spyder diffs are actually made by ofna).
I like the HB truggy diffs myself.

I will have to get me a pair of those truggy diffs!
They will come with input pinion, but without bearings, right?

I guess all I need now is a bulkless conversion for the Revo.
