ive heard bad things about the center diff, that it eats thrust washers and bearings. and then everyone jumping onto the band wagon with a new option (not bad,options are good) i find it hard to pick one.
yea got the rc shox ball diff and garodisc
the mtx's clutch basket
and the associated ft v2 slipper and basket..
others ?
idk anything about the pros and cons of them. ive read some on hear about them but the way rctech is setup theres alot of reading to do.
thanks to anyone for some info on these.
Just to be clear there have only been two documented issues with the thrust bearing on the V2 dif, first one was do to no grease used on the installation, second was something that was discovered in that one of the washers has a bigger ID than the other and the bigger one needs to go on the outside. Even then there has been hundreds of them sold with no issues at all! just wanted to clear that up
Any VTS you get will ruin the pads in a day, i get PM's all day about how even the new VTS is better than the old setup but still requires constant attention. The Garodisc definitely solve that issue, if you want to keep a slipper. In a head to head battle on any track the V2 dif will outperform a slipper simple as that, but of course i am biased!! im sure others will chime in shortly!
