It's the B2 diff gear. I have one in my Evader. Found mine on ebay.. They're getting harder and harder to find. Mine holds to well to my 5700 Mamba.

The guy I bought it from had a few of them. I got mine for around $27 or so shipped. It's a solid piece. Supposedly the standard B2 diff gear is a lot better than the stock Duratrax piece. I just wanted to make mine bulletproof also. I'll see if I can find the guy's name I found mine from.

I set mine up for racing too. I have the feeling I'll be selling it for a T4 shortly though. It's a really nice truck though.

Mine also has a Mamba 5700... It really rips with that combo.

Also, just noticed you are from Memphis. You planning on racing at Bullettown or the Shelby Farms track?

i went with the B2 diff gear a while back and it's been workin great so far. if it wears out i'll go with this one http://www.arrow-rc.com/ it's a little pricey for a diff gear but it will deffinatly make it "bullet proof"

It's a 5x8 bearing. It needed a little shaving of the aluminum gear to get it to fit mine.

would our hobby town or midsouth hobbies have one? i don't really know much about bearings. when i did the b2 mod, i just shaved the inside of the gear down and used the duratrax bearing, which is 5x10 i believe.. but obviously that would be a pain with the aluminum one

They should. It almost fits the aluminum one, but I had to go around it with an Xacto knife and trim a tiny bit of aluminum off.

Also, was unable to go back that far in ebay. It was list as HG Aluminum B2 diff gear I think.

The Losi XXXT wheels fit just fine. Right now, I'm running JConcept Goose Bumps on the rear, and Losi 8-ribs on front. As far as bodies, I've always heard the XXXT MF body will fit just fine. Although King Pins will work better on that track I believe. For my backyard track, the Goose Bumps are awesome.
