Its a finicky setup. You Just have to work with it until it seats correctly. Keeping both inserts lined up and inserting them at the same time is a PITA.

I tried that, it seems to be better but not perfect. Do these smooth out when you run them after everything finds it's spot? I just don't want to put it back in and have to pull it out again, the front one is a bit of work to get to. Thanks again.
While I'm asking questions, is 5/5/3 what everyone is getting the best results on a high bite clay track with? This is totally different than setting up my truggy.

I run 7,7,3 on high bite and 5,5,3 on low bite.

Thanks for the info, I have spent about 4 hours on it and 1.5 hours at the LHS - multiple people there tried with no success.

Hey guys heres a little mod i did, figured some may be interested... The body obviously takes a beating and cracks along the front fenders making the body even weaker eventually you can push down on the roof and the front end opens like pac-man!.... so i took two body mounts i found in my "junk" box ((not sure where they came from)), two nuts and two 5-40 1 inch set screws and did what you see in the pix.... makes a huge difference, it helped even way more than i thought!!
-No more cracking on the fenders...
-Body won't open up like "pac-man" at high speed...
-Truck won't sound like a trash bag of spare lexan hitting the ground after jumps!
-Can push down on the roof with no body flex.. feels like it has a roll cage!
Anyways thought i'd share the idea... i thought it would look kind of "hack" but acctually does'nt look to bad either

I am going to try 5/7/3. I run 7/10/5 in my 8T, so although a little thinner for the SCTE, it follows the same formula. At the track with the factory grease in it, it would understeer on power and extremely oversteer off power. I am trying to tune the bugs out of it's handling from the drivetrain out.
Thanks for all of the advice.
Is your ring gear reversed (upside down)? I think it is...

Not if it's the rear...thats correct
Not upside down.

Yes it's in the rear - here's more pictures. I would be happy to ship to somebody to look at it to see if we are all crazy. I bought a whole diff, assembly unit off of ebay today...
Yea, i use to have one on my MTX3 back in my on-road days.. I figured one would be to much pressure on that one spot so i went with two plus no drilling and they line up right in front of the windsheild perfectly... the mounts i found were perfect after shimming them one washer up....The tabs you see stuck on the inside of the body is some lexan with adhesive on the back, not sure where i got it ((Good ol junk box!)) but i cut two curcles and stuck them on there to save the paint and add strength.. heres the pix you wanted
The problem is that I can get one side of the diff to fit in the notch (part # BB3104), but the other side is a little too long for the other notch. The diff gear doesn't touch the gear that is inside the housing. Very odd.

Will the diff fit and housing close without the plastic cups installed?
You are lining up the little notches/tabs correctly...right? They both have to be exactly positioned for it to close
