Anyone had any trouble with diff housings breaking?? I was a little over zealous with my throttle control and wheelied out of a corner right before a jump.. the front end shot straight down off the jump face and went straght into the face of the landing... it was a direct hit to the top of the front shock tower.. It ripped the bottom screws out that connect the shock tower to the diff housing... it was a pretty vicious hit for any vehicle to take?? Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen to them?

Did that once with my EB48. Same thing pretty much except it was a wood wall barrier. Nose down so my tower lead the way. It was bad, $100 bad Honestly, I expected a lot more damage. I broke my diff housing, but it broke where it should have.

I've had to warranty 4 of the rear cases and the easiest way to tell is before you put your rear diff together, take a 10mm screw for the rear chassis brace and screw it into the rear diff about half way. If the diff case cracks ***(I'm saying actually CRACKS...I'm NOT talking about a white stress line, that is normal and is OK!)*** So if it cracks it is a bad case. :deathstar

Do the fixed rear cases form a white stress line if you do this test?

Anyone know which on-line retailers have fixed cases?

I've only seen the yahoo above break that part (it was pretty spectacular), but I'd imagine a vicious hit like that would TKO that area. I'd rather the $14 part break than the $40 part.

They don't make a wrap for the et48. One thing I will say is in the pics online the body looks pretty ugly but in person they actually look pretty cool. I thought I was gonna have to put a different body on it but now I like it.
