B-Fast RC Performance Diff Parts for LOSI AND ASSOCIATED

This is a shameless plug for a great company!

But seriously, if you're looking to build the smoothest diff possible check out this site. A lot of you may already give your rings a little "massaging" but for those of you who want to purchase rings that have already been worked, check this out. Plus they purchase higher grade carbide balls with tighter tolerances and sell them CHEAPER than what hobbyshops sell for. You can also get a quality caged thrust bearing, a set of rings, and balls for about $20.

Check it out at www.BFastRC.com

--- Please, I'm not trying to start a discussion on the quality of the diff parts that come with the kits, I'm just making this company known to a lot of racers. Thanks for looking.

I have this diff set up in my T4 and it is the smoothest diff I have ever built.

Im glad i seen this. Im building a XXX-CR with a mamba max 7700 in it and the diff has me worried. Hopefully this will strengthen it a bit. thank you.

I might get some of those. Does it make a big difference what package I get? Like the $15 one or the $20 one?

Spend the extra $$ on the thrust bearing, it will be the smoothest diff you have ever built.

The thrust bearing is often the cause of that gritty feeling diff. Sadly it is too often overlooked during a diff rebuild. If you are replacing the rings and balls in you diff, do youself a favor and change that thrust bearing. You will be glad you did.

It's easier to build a smoother diff with these rings but I notice that they're easier to break in and the diffs last longer. I still rebuild mine all the time just to clean and regrease, but I'm noticing a longer timespan before any wear is apparent. Considering if you buy from somewhere else, you're going to have at least $10 in the carbide balls plus the cost of the thrust bearing and rings... it's almost the same price, plus the free shipping definitely makes it worthy of a test. If you try them, post on here what you thought of them.
