The aluminum ones that are in my .2 were installed just as these were available and are still in use today, with little to no wear at all.
Not a "must have" by any means, but this is one area where you can shave weight and rotating mass without the worry of accelerated wear. The steel ones never failed for the year+ that I ran them as well. Either way, these shouldn't be an area of concern. This, like the rest of the car is as tough as the Losi in terms of breakage, but seems to get less sloppy over time.
Great car. Great company. Great customer service.

I am pretty sure the cross pins are really only there for assembly purposes, after that they are just along for the ride.

I run the aluminum diff cross pins just for the idea of a lightened drive train. The kit comes with the steel ones.

I bent a shock shaft last race, honestly, not a really big hit either... must have just hit just right... either way, i'd like to upgrade to the TiNi shafts but i'm not sure which length to get. On the Tekno site for option parts it lists 3 sizes - 107mm, 122mm, and 137mm... What's the proper lengths for the EB48.3 front and rear? Thanks!

Could someone please link to 1x8 pistons or give the part number? Blind or something, can't find them.

Yes they do, not sure why but I was just picturing the inner diff and how it functions and not how it is installed and used in the drive train.
Funny as later that same day a package arrived and I got to build three 1/8th scale diffs last night. Pretty surprised how much mass those three diffs have filled with oil. This hardware is quite a bit more stout than my experiences with 1/12th and 1/10th scale vehicles.
So far I am really impressed with the fit and finish on this kit, it is going together very smoothly. The only tricky part with the diffs is getting that damn pin into the out-drive to diff casing connection, fat fingers make it a chore.

I am at step J-4, the steering rack assembly, and something seems off to me.
They show the washers being under the ball between the head of the screw and the ball. How does that change the bumpsteer? Shouldn't the washers be between the ball and the steering rack to change the bumpsteer?
