Here's how i get into the diffs..
Front diff:
Top plate - unscrew the two screws nearest shock tower just enough so that you can remove the plastic spacer that they hold.
Shock tower - unscrew all screws that go into the diff.
Bottom - unscrew all screws that go into the diff.
Unscrew the holders for the sway bar.
Then just slide the diff out.
Rear diff:
Remove bottom screws and take off the entire rear, and remove any screws that goes into the diff.

Hey thanks!!
I really appreciate you helping me out with my question.
I think that the noise I'm hearing is coming from the ring and pinion not being tight enough in one of the diffs. I will post what I find out.
Thanks again.

Does anyone have any info on part LOSB3542? Its backordered everywhere and I am needing to replace mine. My outdrives are getting pretty loose.
Just curious, does anyone make higher quality outdrive bushings (I'm not sure if thats what its called.......its the round sleeve that the outdrive rides in)? Seems this is the first thing to wear out in these trucks.

i have seen a lot of talk on this but i dont understand which part in the diffs you are all talking about ?
are you talking about the little washer / shim that covers the rubber seal that goes over the shaft of the out drive?

What radio are you using? Sound like you have made some mixes, or your receiver has gone haywire.

Shocks work fine, but IMHO if you already have the stock shocks keep them. You have more access to tuning options on driver setups, plus the spring options.
Hope that helps!

I'm running the SC10 Body also and I have to say, it's held up better than any other body I've used before. It's kinda funny, but I threw my Losi headlight cover stickers, the Losi "T" stickers and the Losi grill from the stock body sticker kit and put them on so it wouldn't be confused. So now people, give it a double take lol
