i love the idea of all these extra bearings to help take the strains of these brushless systems!!!
_DV i knew that guy on savcentral was never going to produce... they rarely do after they realise how little profit there is in it for them...
Jason... do you really think the Hot Bodies or Kyosho plastic diff case with steel ring is better? does it accept the BP ring gear? and i also hears the spiuder and bevel gears are a little tougher too!!!
you got any part no. or links to them? thanks
i have serveral different modded diffs in my savages.
one of the last things i have done is the 9T/29T bullet proof bevels combined with the kyosho IF103 plastic diff cup with the steel ring and the little sliding blocs. so there are now 8x16mm bearings on both sides.
i guess the outer bearing mod is only possible with the old non-x-version of bulks and diff housings.
the cen diff mod seems to be a very nice option too.

How did you get the sliding blocks in there? Pics??
the IF103 cup is available e.g. at amain.
those sliding blocs are smaller than those in the hpi aluminium cup. you can see them in the second pic above. you need to modify the cross pins at the ends and produce some small blocs on your own.

Yes I do, and Yes it does; time will tell if it really is a tougher combo. I don't have the Kyosho diff case, but from the pictures it appears to be identical to the Hot Bodies one I'm using now. I've read that the Hot Bodies spider gears are tougher too, but I'm using stock Flux gears for now until I use up my spares. It's all in my post that you linked to at the top of this thread. (link)
