I ran my Spec R gear diff in mod for the first time this weekend. The diff held up fine but it was hard on the drive train with a spool in the front. I stripped a couple of belts and then went so far as stripping one of my center pulleys in the main.

Hi Itchynads, i used the "X-ring" now and no leak so far. Last build was 1 month ago with 130,000 oil. Got it from Kshobby website. I play 7 days a week with at least 4 LIPO pack, running MOD with LRP 4 Turn brushless. with weather condition 32-34c degree. I agreed with you that it will be nice, if they were to release a rubber gasket.
