Installed the LST2 differentials in my G3R chassis - 10.06.2009, 11:21 PM

With some help from this thread http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...t=16855&page=5 and the pictures that are in MisterCrashes photo bucket.

I had some old bulkheads that the plastic threading was stripped out of. I used them for my first try at fitting the LST cases into the revo bulkheads. I took plenty of material off of them but they seem like they will be okay. With everything that is connected up to the bulk and the chassis connected we will see. I also attached the differential cases to the bulkheads themselves to eliminate the movement that you usually get. What I am trying out is explained in the pictures below.

I was just going to use the old bulkheads to see how much material needed to be removed and do a better job on the ones that were installed. I figured what the heck and put some brass inserts into the holes that were stripped out and installed these one. Will see how much abuse these skeletons can take.

The pictures will tell more of the story of what I did. There are no pictures of the front being installed. It was straight forward and I was trying to get it done before the sun went down. There's a couple of the rear installation due to some carving needed to be done.

I have run into a problem with my setup. I have the trx steel shaft cvds installed. The differential cups are shorter then the cups I used with the stock differential. The shafts will pop out when I get on it hard, etc. Will be looking at different alternatives to the differential cups, shafts, axles, etc. Thanks to lincpimp and MisterCrash for traveling the road before us. MisterCrash has some good pictures of what is removed from the bulkhead and what a job well done should look like. I will just say I didn't take my time with these bulkhead but will with the next set I do.

Without further ado....
