Buy some of the Yeah Racing (or other cheap) ceramic diff balls. I've got them and no matter how tight I crank it down it's smooth. Never gets close to locking up, though.

Locate (or have your local shop order) a Robinson Racing part number 1116. It's steel and will never cack out on you. Or, check M-chassis.com or eBay for a Kawada 16T pinion. (Duraluminum 0.6 mod) They're both cheap and very good.
