A bit of a shameless plug, but check out about halfway through this clip and you'll see what I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdJYwEDxQ7k if you smooth out the face of the diff case a bit, it tends to help keep it from leaking.

Brandon runs for AE and I gave him a hand shooting a few clips on some common tips and tricks for the RC8B, the vast majority of them apply to the E as well, so you may find some usefull stuff in there.
And Jason, thanks for the video. Good advice as I havent built a car in about 5 years and never knew any of that. I also favorited the other 3 as well. I hope to see some 8Be specific videos sometime. Like setting up and running motors and batteries. And how to balance the car with large packs and also picking motor sizes and gearing. Excellent information thank you.
