Has anyone swapped just the gears and still used the Kyosho diff cups or do you need to swap the entire assembly, cups ,spiders and all? it would be cool if you could just swap the bevel gear and leave the rest Kyosho but I doubt it would mesh since the cut of the gears is different.


I know I should do it your way Monte just lookinfor options
ive used kyosho diff cups in my hot bodies and it works fine. like you said though they problem might be with the input gear mesh.
