Is there a company that makes front aluminum diff halves for the 415-MSX?

I already have the yokomo diff but....

Any word when TAMIYA will release the front(aluminum?)diff halves?

I like driving with a spool but diffs are nice to have for some tracks.

Precision RC has a heavy duty front ball diff kit for the MSX. Its a combination of Yokomo Harden Steel Outdirves and tamiya Diff pulley.

I have herd that the original plastic spool from Tamiya breaks easily.

I know that the MSX have a front “one-way” diff with the package. Do I have to buy a front spool or dose one also come in the package?

Is there any online shops that sell front spools for msx? Is it best to buy a aluminium front spool? (I have looked at the one that JoeyE has on Ebay).

I bought my Tamiya MSX from Precision-rc, but they didn’t have many parts, can anyone recommend any good online shops that sells parts for the msx (this is probably a common question, but the topic is veeeeery long).

Tamiya makes a spool, it has delrin outdrives. the TA05 spool has steel outdrives.
I would suggest getting the tamiya unit for the 415, and the unit for the TA05. That way you get the delrin outdrives for a big race, and a set of steel outdrives for the standard races and standard use.

tryhard or anyone with msx and tamiya delrin spool:

If I am holding my car in the air or have it on the stand and give it some throttle then turn left or right past 50% it starts vibrating real bad. No matter how little or much throllte
Is that chatter ?
I have looked everywhere to check clearance and nothing hits that I can find...

I think all cars do it to some degree, except for the JRX-S. Losi have produced a “double knuckle” front CVD to eliminate this vibration, and it works very well. The only side effect from this is that there is another ‘joint’ in the driveline that can produce slop. But I can live with that if it’s getting rid of this vibration .

stick a set of TIR cvds on and TIR spool pretty much gets rid of the chatter and they are much lighter.
