DCJ's are double-jointed universals, currently available as aftermarket hop-up: http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/ite...oduct-id=42216 - benefit here is more efficiency at higher steering throw angles.

On a side note, I see that metal gears are now an option for the gear diff: http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/ite...oduct-id=54428
