*compared to the tbo3, there is a LOT more gear lash that needs to be done, and it's a lot harder to do then it looks. Put the kit described shims in, and then continue to add then till you get the lash out. Do one at a time.

*a assembled tbo3 diff w aluminum out drives is 18 grams, the spool with steel out drives is 19, and these gear diffs are a whopping 29 grams! They have some aluminum parts coming, hope they make some more.

Sacramento beat Golden State, I'm going to bed.

My friend runs the awsomatix. The diffs are heavier than most cars. It doesn't seem to affect performance as long as the drive train is smooth
