I've never used CA to hold my diff rings, but I always preferred that they were keyed.

From what I recall, I think at the worlds the 22-4 had a lot of drivetrain issues, either slipper or diff issues. Regardless, the fact that their 2wd has non-keyed diff rings and the 4wd does just makes me think that they do not have the best idea on what they are doing in the diff department. I would look at diffs that have proven to do well and Kyosho and Associated certainly aren't keyed.

@Wildcat, I thought the same thing...lol

Bottom line, non-keyed diff rings are not bad, especially in off-road.
