I haven't even managed to break a stock set of diff's (I have some cheap aluminum bulks now) but I know as soon as I start running 6s things are going to break.

Even now... the real weak point of my E-Maxx is the chassis! I hit a telephone pole at <15mph and broke a chassis in half D:

OK I found all the hotbodies stuff that I would need. Check out this post: http://www.beatyourtruck.com/forum/s...l=1#post824097

Copied:
============================

UE do, but all they use are Ofna Hyper diffs basically- look on ebay etc for some 'ofna differentials'. Hotbodies are getting hard to find these days for some strange reason, but they are just as good. Just add in the needed bearings & some 8x10x0.2mm shims...

However, because Im sofaking awesome, I found all the Hotbodies parts on Amain:

You'll also need 4 of these:

If you want to use the stock driveshafts or the traxxas cvds & drive cups ( or you can make your own by cutting the threaded part off of these: traxxas stub axles ).

You'll also need these driveshaft coupler with 8mm bore ( v2 ) if you want to use the stock center driveshafts, or pickup a couple 8mm drive cups such as these with an 8mm bore.


============================

The only part I don't see is the 8mm bore v2 driveshaft coupler. I am running Traxxas Opti-drive cvd's/driveshafts so I will need to get some 8mm drive cups for the center shafts.

I'm going to do the rear diff first and document everything so maybe it will be helpful to someone else.
