ok guys i have a problem. im building my new TC5F im working on the diff's and this is where my problem is. my kit has the aluminum out drives. i assemble the diff and when i go to tighten up the diff bolt i can't. i have to press reall hard on the t nut to even get it by the threads of the diff bolt. and when i do finally get it to start. ill get the bolt to the nylon part of the lock nut in the t nut and every time it rips the threads right out of the nut. ive now gone through 12 nuts and 7 bolts. its getting a little old. does anyone have any ideas? and yes i did compress the spring first

I made this tool for my diff. to make it easier to assemble. I made it fron scrap aluminum sheet 3"X3". Since I start using this tool, it made my diff build a lot easier. The Y side is to check how tight is my diff instead of using allen drivers and the 3 other side is where the split on the outdrive goes in to keep the pressure on the T-nut. Make sure the T-nut is not backwards as well.
the diffs are not easy to build.
almost ridiculous...why can't they make a touch longer bolt? I know they are using existing bolts but I'd pay for a new, longer one just to avoid the hassle & stripping the mini 240 nuts.

does anyone sell a tool like this? with this tool is there room to get the allen driver in there to tighten the bolt?

glad to see im not the only one! ive built lots of kits and have never had this kind of trouble!

the t nut is in there right. my thing is with that in there the threads of the bolt arnt even to the nut. i have to press hard on the nut to get the 2 parts to touch.
