I need or better demand the new diff cases! Pleease Ryan!

Once ur diffs start leaking again, it time to reglue the inserts and change out orings (kyosho) and shims (harden). Hopefully u used rtv so u can push the inserts out and re-rtv them. The diffs should last a couple of months of running and few weekends of racing. Grease up the outdrives and orings good and you will have better " no leaking results".

Having a small problem. My quick motor mount will move away from my center diff? Any ideas on how to fix this? It is a stock motor mount.

Kind of funny though that on this tread the only lipos that were mention that had issues with the Bird cage connecters were in the Nanotechs .

And diffs should last more than a few weekends of racing!

so be a guinea pig and buy the hot racing alum diff seen here and see how that works...I kno some dont like it due to added weight but hasnt been compared to the stock diff but either way...IF your having leaking issues this might be something to check into BUT if its leaking at the outdrive area i think you need to look deeper into your grease, o-rings, and so on....

I'm surprised tlr hasn't fixed this problem yet. The truck should just "work" from the factory, not forcing us to make diy fixes.

hey...anyone familiar with small weights, does this look like it could be correct for the weight the HR alum diff housing
0.8200 ounces
(23.2 grams)
(0.051 pounds)

Has anyone ran the Integy carbon fiber shock towers? They have them on their website on sale like $14 for front and rear. They have an extra set of holes to mount shocks lower. Not sure if this will help really. But for $14 I ordered me a set for a spare.

It won't move again like this.

They look good but whats with all the shock tower holes that alone would confuse me lol. But the price is good for them and there thick !
