Yes. I canīt get enough steering throw with Corally parts, the steering knuckles hit the swaybar ball cup. You can dremel the knuckles and ball cup but I donīt think you can get same amount of steering throw as with Tamiya parts. If you are using Corally parts use the 4 degree alu caster block, itīs thinner than the 3 degree plastic = more throw.
I use Spec-R TA05 37t geardiffs. You have to use a 189 mm rear belt with this setup and a 37t front pulley if youīre using a spool. Otherwise you get some overdrive....
If youīre using the geardiffs with the Corally suspension you have to cut off 3mm on the geardiff outdrives and drill the hole a bit to avoid binding. Tamiya driveshafts are shorter so this is not a problem with Tamiya suspension.
You also have to trim one of the geardiff sides otherwise the swaybar alu. mount will interfere. Itīs a bit of work to make it all fit nicely but you canīt compete in modified nowadays with a ball diff....
Corally is coming out with a gear diff soon.
