Default worth it or not?

i know my t-maxx has that limited slip rear. are these worth it to install? will this make both rear wheels turn at the same time? and can you put these in the front and rear?

yes you can put them int he front and rear but its going to limit the turning radius a lot more then what you want. what are you plans for the truck? and if you do instal them upgrade the ring and pinion as well. I have a hill climb revo that i used them in front and read.

Yeah spools kinda suck. They are good for the above mentioned things plus awesome donuts, but stuff will break.

yes it will break man things. when i put in my spools i also put in cvd new diffs and bulks and robinson trans kit and forward only just so everything will hold up to the os speed and 1/5th scale wheels but all i do is hill climb so i left the rear drive shaft stock so it would be the only weak point so i could break something that was cheap.
