Hey did you guys notice that you might be able to access the diffs without dismantling the entire bulkhead??!?!

Yep

The Tamiya Rep pretty much said 4 screws and you can gain access to the diff or front one-way

It seems that you do not need to remove the whole upper-deck, and still can change the spur-gear!!! A good thing that adapt from Yokomo MR-4TC SD!!!

How much weight will it be when the EVO IV fully loaded

Isnt dirt and dust going to be a serious issue? Is there going to be at least some kind of gearbox cover like in the barracuda or better yet a completely sealed drive train?

are you going to lub the diff? Won't it get dirty if there is no diff box? I mean it is a great idea so you can access the diff easily, but maybe a plastic piece might do the job.
