My only "issue" is the ball diff is NOT smooth. It's a bit notchy. I took it apart and re-did it several times. Same result. I'm hoping it will break-in. If not, that gear diff has my name on it.
That's weird. Mine is like glass after several race days. Sanded the rings, broke it in and used ceramic thrust balls though ...
