I don't believe, when i am looking for trf416, even rcmarket, egrracing and many others are out of stock.
Not only gear diff, but also spare gears and gaskets not all but in some shops, looks spec-r can't supply enough items.

I wonder whether we can mod the NT1 gear diff to the 416? I would like to change the internal gears to metal base instead of nylon. Any1 can help?

Thanks.

STLNLST: if you saw the inside parts on the spec-r you wouldn't wonder

cheap cheap plastic and even the cross piece is plastic, should be metal pins. If I could find internals from another car that fit I would run it as the housing is good and small. I just can't trust it in mod, my head tells me it will blow lol. Besides we are only allowed to run xray parts on an xray, you've seen the lying setup sheets

All of the Tamiyas were running Spec R gear diffs at the Worlds; it can't be that bad in mod.

I have run it with a 17.5, 13.5 ,10.5 and 5.5, no problems with it at all...

I thought the plastic gears looked cheap, and thought they would break, but they have not.

I am here to attest, If it will break, I will break it... and for the most part, even if it should not break, I will still break it.
Just ask the guys I race with ....

Not saying they will not break, but I think you have to work at it... or get a faulty part.
