i think the main info i need is to see exactly how long the cvd bone itself is... prolly center of the pivot hole to the inside pin. i know these are supposed to be 42, and Alan in the UK earlier said 48 for the 201's, but i dont know what part he measured from. ideally, i think they should be 46 center to center. i better get mine back together for this weekend...

I did not measure it it is stamped on the shaft the same as the 42mm ones in the 414/415 etc

ahhh, i see. they may be too long then. i should order some anyway for my F201, so i can verify...

Hmm if it is too long, maybe we can get away with the F201/415 hybrid "short" diff.

Anyways, gonna try a new setup on the 415 this weekend. See how it compares to my old one.

maybe that will go... i did find a source for the 6/11 bearing. Tamiya! they use it somewhere in the TXT truck. the Yoke axles should work with that setup. gotta order come asap.....

I think the 11x6 bearing is used on the output shaft of the TXT-1 tranny.

Umm...nope just a bunch of 5x11's in the TLT-1 tranny.

guys, just a few questions, from a newb...

what the big deal with trying to make up a different diff for the 415 ? i just don't see the point, but please don't take that as a criticism as i have never driven a car with a front oneway before on carpet, i am just finishing building my 415 as we speak. does the one way make it handle like shit on the carpet ?

rice

bro maybe there trying to improve much better than the other one. it handle very well regardless on how you set up your car.

enjoy racing

trf_steve- a one-way with foams on carpet will give you too much steering and make the car harder to drive in general.

also i'm sure a fair few of the guys here will be planning on attending the 04 reedy race at the tamiya track in the near future.. and one-ways are banned for this race, you must have 4w drive and breaking.. so if they want to run the car they're going to have to work something out.

kool thanx guys for clearing that up

Yeah what tones said,
the 1-way is okay on carpet WITH rubber but with foam it gives huge steering and also is inconsistent and causes more drag.
