Originally posted by InitialD No. He took the front ball diff axles and pulley and physically locked it. So there's no more diff action on his front "ball diff" anymore. Don't know the details but Uncle Crash thought he heard him say that he locked the front ball diff with a glue. :confused: I actually did not take a close pic of it but he took off the diff collar too as it was not required. :nod: :lol: |

Originally posted by thamjk From my experience, what I did was replacing all the dif bearing to a custom made cylinder cube where the dimension was fitting nicely. Tighten the center allen screw and you will have no way for diff action, completly solid. That was before my solid axle come out. If I'm not wrong, you're relying from the metal to metal friction these cylinder metal pieces will provice against the metal plates? So how many of these cylinder metal pieces did you put to replace the balls? They should be 4 x 4 mm measurement right? |

Originally posted by thamjk Correct, just replace all the bearings. The only concern here is where to get those cylinder metal pieces? Originally posted by thamjk My rear diff outdrive cup start to wear out, any solution? http://www.3hobby.net/modules/copper...5360_small.JPG Of course, replace the diff outdrives with a new one and with these modified dogbones, the diff outdrive will last much longer. |

Originally posted by InitialD I guess get a 4 mm cyclindrical rod and cut them out at every 4 mm intervals... Replace one side of the dogbone with a 11.7 mm pin. The stock one is 9.7 mm. The side of the dogbone with the longer pin should go into the diff outdrive. http://www.3hobby.net/modules/copper...5360_small.JPG Of course, replace the diff outdrives with a new one and with these modified dogbones, the diff outdrive will last much longer. |

Originally posted by InitialD ... Anyway, I also changed the dogbone pins from time to time as they flatten out after constant usage. What I do to pro-long the usage of these pins is to knock them out, turn them 90 degrees and knock them back in. You'll get a "new" pin. :lol: :eek: :lol: [/B] Any good tips for a cheap Shuffle? Maybe knock something out of a cassette player and then hammer parts of it back into a broken pen-drive case and voila! Cheap iPod! :lol: :lol: :lol: |

Originally posted by thamjk That is one way another of doing it. What about the dogbone, where can we get those pins? |

Originally posted by Sow&Steady Is he still around? They're so quiet these days ... maybe that's why ... Serpent found out he was knocking out pins and replacing them and ... take a guess. :blush: Originally posted by Sow&Steady Man! That's even cheaper than cheap! :lol: Wait a minute... Who do you call cheap? A person who knocks out pins from a dogbone worth few bucks or a person who waits for a free iPod? :rolleyes: :lol: :lol: :lol: |
