Where does it work....

[RC-Monster Mike]

I will hopefully let you know really soon. :)

Will it work with out the brakes as well? I know the Ve8 uses a goofy offset spur...

I can happily state that the slipperential fits the D8 with minimal modifications. It took quite a few diff shims, the bulk of witch I placed at the front to minimize the forward movement of the spur gear that cut down on the amount I had to grind the chassis plate to accommodate the gear and thrust bearing. It also required a little dremel work to the diff top brace.
There isn't a race this weekend so I won't post a review until Monday a week. Anyway here's a couple of pics.

Drops right into the diff/motor mounts on the Caster F8T truggy. Mods required are moving the battery trays slightly rearward and adding a little clearance on the diff mount top plate.

Has anyone installed this on a monster gt for brushless conversion>?

[simplechamp]

Just dropped the Slipperential into my Jammin X1. Someone asked before how much space needed to me shimmed up; I used about 1.8-2mm of shims on each side, so about 3.6-4mm total.

[brushlessboy16]

Had to shim the slipper plate side away from the motor mount by .25mm (1 shim) and its fine, the slipperential is about 1mm longer than the losi diff so there was a tiny bit of strain on the front mount, it doesnt make it bind or anything, so it should be fine. Spring for the hardened steel front plate losi guys! for the extreme front driveshaft angle, the steel plate will wear less than the aluminum plate.

Had some difficulties getting the slipper pads in, I had to dremel 2 of the 3 to sit correctly in the spur gear. No big deal. Works great and softens the initial hit of my sensorless MMM system. Paired with a brand new Rc-monster Pinion, this sucker is quiet!! It only is slightly loud under braking, Probably because the gears need to be broken in.. Race testing Tommorow!

Bottom Line:
Amazing product
Near perfect fit and finish
9.5/10

Hi,
will slipperential fit into HB D8T?
Use someone this configuration?
Thanks

Yes it will fit the D8T.
Here's what it looks like installed with a Kyosho motor mount.


And here with a RCM motor mount.

Yea it works great in the D8T and D8. You will have to shim the bearings quite a bit but that doesn't change how well it works.

Umm...Why? Is this not like running two clutches?

[RC-Monster Mike]

Running it in a nitro is not unheard of, actually - there will be two clutches, but the Slipperential diff can be adjusted in the vehicle quickly trackside, while a nitro clutch must be dis-assembled to make adjustments.

Does this work in Durango DNX408? Any mod. necessary?
I am planning to convert DNX408 into brushless version with my lhs. conversion kit.
By the way, still I am looking forward to RCM conversion kit. I hope it is coming soon.
