The diffs aren't listed yet(but I have them-along with the needed parts to install them into the FLM hybrids). I still need to "inventory" these diffs and get them listed. I can take care of anyone that needs them through e-mail, though.

Could you email me the list of parts needed and prices when you get a chance? My email is sluggie24@aol.com
Also, do you know when you might be getting the integy suspension kit back in stock?
Thanks

The blue Pro3 suspension is usually in stock. The silver comes and goes pretty quick, though. I will e-mail you some diff details in a little while. :)

Do the Hydrids come with the right sized hingepins (e-clip)?

I think you need to order different hingepins for the hybrids.


The problem with nitro's these days are that they arent brushless... LOL

Mine came with the bottom hinge pins. The top are stock and not included.

I have to say something about this theory of amps and voltage. I have ran a 9xl on 14 cells and 20 cells with the same gearing. I get longer run time out of the 20 cells. Yes it works out to less runtime on paper. With the higher voltage on a motor make the motor have more torque and thus propelling the truck with less amperage of use. This is form my experence.

sluggie24 I have an 8xl in my savage that I run on 6s lipo which is roughly equivalent to 20 cells. If mash the gas from a dead stop on a high traction surface I can almost do a backflip (without a wheelie bar), the rear bumper never touches the ground and the truck lands on its front end.

A long wheelie bar is required.

poconoblmaxx, is your truck geared really high for top speed? I would have thought you would flip right on your lid if you mashed a setup like that. Unless maybe the tires just break loose? I actually want to be able to ride on the wheelie bar for about 20 ft on my way to 45-50 mph! LOL When my truck was stock it would just flip over in second gear with 14cells without a wheelie bar if I mashed it.

Its geared 15/52 I think and hits 47mph. I have a wheelie bar on the back in that vid. The truck rides on the bar for quite a ways down the street. You won't have a problem trying to do wheelies. Its kind of hard to convey the awesome explosive power of the xl motors. You must experience it. Oh and take it from a guy whos been there with maxx diffs, just buy the UE ones. You'll end up there in the end anyway.

I hear what you and everyone else is saying about the diffs. Problem is I just dumped a bunch of $ on this truck this week and the only reason I even bought it was so I can have fun with my son while he drives his. I'm gonna just wait till these diffs fail before I drop any more $ on it. That could be in a week or so if this is gonna have as much power as everyone says though...... LOL I'll have to let everyone know how the truck runs when finished, I should get all the parts in the mail by the end of the week and be running this weekend.

They will last longer if you drive a smoother run tires are small, and the slipper is not set tight. Just some driving tips for not tearing them out on first packs. ;)

it is very important to run the slipper loose when you are running stock diffs because even the titans can eat up the diffs when the slipper is tight

Can anyone tell me what usually fails in these diffs and how they fail? Is it just that the ring and pinion gears wear out from lack of lubrication? Like I said earlier, I already have the aluminum diff case and cup with 3mm screws and rubber sealed bearings. Would the robinson gears be worth the money or are the stock ones good enough?:032:
