So then for the CVDs, should I go for the TiR ones or the HB Steel set? Or just stick with the stock ones? Thanks.
BTW, this is for carpet (stock and 19T).

you'll need about 3 - 3.5mm of shimms on both sides...
cheaper to buy the stock Delrin outdrives.

Im also considering making a ball diff instead of the spool. So the pro 4 diff halfs can be use is what you are saying but must be shim.
So if I can get a complete Pro 4 ball diff set and replace the stock pulley with
A495 39t Ball Diff Pulley and lots of shims it will work.

Does anyone know is these will fit as thrust balls in the diff? http://shopping.rcmodel.hk/product_i...oducts_id=5689
Doesn't say what size they are, just thrust.

Just get Associated balls they work.
For the P4 outdrives to work you also need to use the CVD's the Cyclone bones are too short. It's really more of a hasel than anything. I did it because I had the parts available. But I ended up buying the Cyclone outdrives after all.

pm me if you're interested in Pro4 steel bones that will fit the Cyclone axles with no mods. I have a NIB Pair available for sale...

Okay, to recap here... for a ball diff I put together all the HPI internal parts with the pulley, and if I use the Pro4 outdrives then I have to use shims and also the HPI bones? (which will fit fine with the HB axles?)
Does that mean that the Pro4 axles (so an entire Pro4 CVD) will fit on the Cyclone if using the Pro4 diff outdrives.
Sheesh, what a hassle either way.

but if you take the entire MIP axle and Mips bones from the Pro4..they will fit the Cyclone.
the Pro4 bones that I'm selling are made for the cyclones axles...they are approx 2mm longer than stock.
make it easy on yourself and just get the cyclone outdrives.

So there are also Pro4 bones that made for the cyclone axles? Are those the HPI Hard Steel Dogbones?(part # 75186)
