Go take out all of your college found and we will bet on whether I have the CR or not.

Ok, will that be cash or check?

Fed up with the ABC? I see Steve "O" has taken care of is driver with a brand spankin' new CR. Looks like the one from the 301 Challenge, LOL.

Kit, I believe Andy at one time posted on here that the Pro4 is a direct fit. Probably back a few pages. You could just pm him and ask, he'll tell you for sure.

Will try to put the thing together after the NATS. I ordered few more upgrades. Probably end up taking the diff from my Cyber 10 kit.

Still have ABC, I will get it to work. I went back to Mimi Sunday messed with ABC car for a bit and found out the diff screws were broken both front and rear. Will mod the diff halves and gotta use the bigger screws.

(working on more Cup Racer specific parts

)

In the meantime for the ultimate super CR diff:

#61538 DIFFERENTIAL SCREW/HEAVY-DUTY NUT SET (2.6mm)
#61148 DIFF THRUST WASHER 2.8x5.8x1mm (2pcs)
#61149 DIFFERENTIAL THRUST BALL 1/16"
#B130 BALL BEARING 10x15x4mm (RUBBER SHIELD/2pcs)
#Z892 WASHER 10x12x0.2mm (10pcs)
#Z891 WASHER 10x12x0.1mm (COPPER/10pcs)
#61450 DIFFERENTIAL CUP JOINT SET
#A164 DIFFERENTIAL RING (13x19mm) (2 pcs)
#61433 BEVEL GEAR SET (39T/16T)
#A157 CARBIDE DIFFERENTIAL BALLS (3/32 ) 2.4mm (12 pcs)
#A165 SPRING 6x7x1.5mm (DIFFERENTIAL) BLACK (2 pcs)

Thanks,

AH
