The dirt looks similar to what I see how here at one of the tracks when its dry with a few bigger jumps here. Looks like fun. :nod:

Looking at the diffs the only thing that comes to mind is the brass bushings changed out to steel, but the reason they are brass is something has to wear out and so the bushing is it, replace it with steel and it and the out drive will both wear.

I'm running all aluminium diffs gives it a lil extra weight and very tough too

I've wanted to try those diffs. But never heard any review on them.
Good to know they hold up.

Diffs

I haven't seen the aluminum diffs you speak of are the cases aluminum if so I don't know why you would want to add weight to a drive train the lighter the better I would think, as long as it holds up of course.

Stock diff case wears great , its the .2 shims that are the wearing & the issue ...
Replace .2 shim with the new Ae shim or double up the .2 shim for better wear & tear ...

Only things I could think of to go with the alloy diff cases would be durability and better holding of the fluid assuming case flex is the cause.

I still love(sarcasm) AE for the fact that they realized there was a problem, updated the part, then didn't tell anyone publicly.

I got diff cases from Shaun a long time ago with bearings instead of bushings, they've been great. Tons of run time on them. :)
