Any idea how to fix this? I've been using the diff for months now, and never had any problem with it, until now.
(Upon close inspection, I discovered that my chassis is very slightly bent. If I put it on the hudy blocks it wobbles very slightly... Can this cause those kinds of problems?? Is the new team chassis any good, in case I decide to replace the chassis altogether?)
Had the same problem some months back...still haven't figured out why but found a good remedy by Art Carbonell...
Use the flange from the oneway pulley and hold it down with an o-rings. I'd grease the o-ring a little with AE GreenSlime coz it'll rub a little with the diff bearings. Run it for a while and eventually the o-ring will will flatten itself and seat nicely...
