A spool is a locked diff, no diff action at all.

Out of curiosity....I know the Reedy Race of Champions mandates full time 4-wheel drive (no one-ways), yet there were some Evo III Surikarn Limited's in the fields. Whats the part number/where can you get an Evo III ball diff? Is a TB01 or a TB02 ball diff assembly compatible?

Try reedy modified motors the TI, PT, and KR.. or try the LRP brands fusion is the best...

that Tamiya does not sell any EvoIII diff kit - need to build it from parts.
Get:
1x TA04 ball diff kit
1x EvoIII outdrives
1pr F201/EvoIII diff rings
2x 850 bearings
1x EvoIII diff gear
For your front diff buy the BLACK outdrives.
The white (dearer) ones are too brittle.

Do I really have to get the TA04 diff kit? Can't I just piece it together using the TB-02 Diff outdrives, Evo III diff gear, and some TC3 diff parts
BTW: I don't have the car yet...what are the 2 850 Bearings for?
Can I just slap one of these in http://www.carttonic.com/catalog/ind...=0,13203,16711
EDIT: I just need the cheapest way to build a ball diff...keep in mind I have parts from the TC3 if that will ease any cost (ie...trust bearings...diff screw/sping/nut) Anything that will cut the cost is a big help as of I have NO cash and need to basically save my lunch money for this...
I can't drive a car with a front one-way so its not even gonna touch the track until I get a differential in the front of that car

EvoIII outdrives is different to TA04 outdrives.
There is a great "Seach/Display By Posts" function above... 
I don't know if TC3 bits will fit, guess you can go find out. You need to source the long M2 centre screw, the thrust bearing, the M2 nyloc nut, the tension spring & the diff balls.
850 bearings are used in the diff, when you get your car & manual it'll be self explanatory.
