I've traditionally done the diff screw head on the left side (driver's side), but have since switched to the Right side (passenger side) regardless of transmission type (3 gear RM vs 3 gear MM and 4 gear MM). Kdub (Kurt Wenger, former AE designer) had this to say on the matter: I think I count as an authority on the matter. I always run my diff screw on the right side (when sitting "inside" the car). I take off the tire and pull the outer hinge pin to get to the adjustment screw.
The right rear is the way the AE manuals state (or used to state). It really shouldn't matter since you go around turns both left and right.

hey guys, I'm mid build and I may or may not bomb you guys with more questions 
but for now until I can figure out what electronics I want I'm going to try a VXL 3S to get moving, can someone recommend what spur/pinion? Specs say it's a 10T 3500Kv. I was thinking a 19/78

I actually recall a discussion years ago with someone at AE (called in for a charger issue, yeah that long ago) and they mentioned something about if you put the screw on the wrong side the diff could potentially "spin open". It mainly came up towards the end as I was curious why I was tightening down my diff more than I thought I should have been. I flipped it to the correct "side" and no issues afterwards.
however, on the truck version I didn't have the issue, so it could have just been that nut and bolt. So who knows, maybe its more so when things are worn to watch for.
Right now debating getting the gear diff. I have the pucks based on what came with my vehicle, but ball diff installed from what I can tell. Is there any place that has the MIP outdrives specific for the gear diff in stock?

Open up your toilet and see which way it flushes. If it's clockwise, you have to put it on motor side. Counter-clockwise, slipper side.
I used up all my JB Weld on my DIY "slipper eliminator". Will shoe goo work?

Not sure that Northern Hemisphere vs. Southern Hemisphere really makes any differences for mounting a screw O_o

But not many use a gear diff on dirt.

Because people need them to hold their hand and tell them what to do. Previous AE manuals didn't specify which way to put the diff in, because it doesn't matter. A million people then asked "which way does my diff go in?" Now, they just tell you which way to put it in so people stop asking.

There are quite a few setups listed here: http://site.petitrc.com/setup/associ...tedRC10B6.html
But not many use a gear diff on dirt.
