Before you go and start buying expensive parts that you may not need i would really look at the those exploded views on the traxxas website and find some time to take apart the tranny and diffs and see what is going on.

Just went thru one version of this - 3905 diffs - ebay, one was $19 other $21 shipped, so the pr was $40. I'm going to run them without taking them apart, but prob a mistake - they feel like they need shimming. Haven't installed front yet, may break down and look inside and check it out.

I have done the other route using flm diff cups with their modded ring gear and new pinion - those are $30 each. Strong enough for a 28 nitro, but how well stand BL power, don't know.

Muggy diffs - no idea.

UE - 6 sypder diffs used runs $150 and up, may find cheaper, ebay or UE BST easiest places to locate. They are in stock at UE, new at $260. The 8 sypders start used around $175 and new they are $299 (new, in stock).

The flm hybrids - cases are $140 and you'll need a pr of diffs and pinions at $60 - 65 each so parts will total $260 or so.

Which is best, thunk the UE 8 spyders is the absolute best/strongest, they still need bulks however which the hybrids don't You could buy the ofna 8 spyder diff and pinions and put them in the hybrids. The cups hold up better than stock, not much else can say about them.
