Where does it work.... - 03.26.2009, 10:51 PM

I was just thinking that it would be nice to have a place where people can list what vehicles they have installed the slipperential into, how it fit, and if any mods were needed to make it work. It should be pretty universal in size and drop right into a large majority of vehicles, but I'm sure it will take some minor mods to make it work well in others. So when you get one installed post up here with some pictures and any useful information that others running that same vehicle might want to know. An easy place for others to be able to look and see where it works and how.

I'll Start. Installed it in my RC8T tonight. It dropped right in, no mods needed. It has a smaller 46T spur gear vs the 54T stock gear or the 50T optional RC8T gear I was running so I needed to drop a tooth in the pinion to get the overall gear ratio back to the same as it was before. I will probably be looking for the optional 50T slipperential gear once its available.

(Camera batteries are dead so I'll post some pics of it installed later tonight or tomorrow once I get it charged up.)

EDIT: Was just looking it over a little closer and saw that it actually was just slightly rubbing the center diff top plate. I just shaved the side of spur gear slot in the top plate down ever so slightly with a hobby knife and its no problem. Just something to look for if you put one of these in a RC8T.

Picture added:


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
