So i figured out if i buy the BD5W here it will have spool front and solid center.

if i take the center one-way and use it in the Worlds car i'd either need to change the one-way bearing direction or change the belts.

1, can the belt still go on like in the older cars?

2, is the OW bearing removeble without destruction?

i want the center one-way because i drift and like the E-brake ability, also wish to use 2 gear diffs.

Question : for carpet stock racing the spec r gear diff is good ????

Martin Hofer

we are using 600 - 1000 on diffoil. sometimes harder but usually in this range as a geardiff is really hard to drive ( atleast harder than a ball diff) which makes it less of an option for carpet racing. but that very much depends on the conditions you race at.

At the IIC everybody used a ball diff. I will do some testing this weekend

I was thinking to use a gear diff instead of a spool with an oil of 300/400k
Noone has tryed to use this solution?
May be is only wrong idea...

Hi, can anyone tell me if the BD5 steering knuckle/C-Hub assembly will fit on to the original BD wishbones?

Thanks

I was heaps faster with the spec-r gear diff in the rear and spool in the front than the standard ball diff on carpet racing with foam tires.

Martin Hofer

the steering knuckle will fit, the c-hub might fit if you redrill it.
but to be fair these two plastic parts are almost identical

Thanks Martin.

So if the knuckle fits i take it the axle spacing will be the same too?

Does the BD5 use large diameter hing pins both in board and out?

Basically i am trying to get my old SD up and running and would like to use BD5 parts where possible.

Many thanks for your help.
