Thanks Iceman. Hope to find AE screw and T-nut at my local hobby shop.

Kind of suck, broke the diff screw be fore the car even hit the asphalt. I have never broken a diff screw before and I have built many diff in 14 years of RC car. I have seen people snapped Yokomo diff screw before, it snapped right where the screw and thread meets due to lack of tensile strength.

I probably go for AE screw. Loosing ability to adjust the diff on the fly doesn’t bother me, diff screw snapped while breaking in on the bench before the diff had the chance to stop slipping – that’s bothered me a lot.

I wish I could use an Xray diff in my Cyclone, that is one thing I miss about Xray parts and designs. With Xray diff I set it once and by the time I had to re built Xray diff I have already forgotten when I was re building it the last time.
