Thanks Jilles
This how i build my gear diffs always.
Whatever make they are
Besides the shimming,as this is brand specific
Untill now i never had a failure,only leaking and this was due to it being a build gear dif from some one else who used the wrong outdrive rubber seals
Got a Spec-R diff(the one that was leaking) and 3 3Racing diffs and now waiting on the new White TRF gear diff

Hello everyone,
For those who will get the Tamiya geardiff soon, here some tips how to build it.
At the ETS we were not informed how to shim the geardiffs as we just got them for the race. After the race I have checked all diffs and tried to find the best solution.
First use sandpaper ( 500 ) for all gears and sand them down till it touch the whole surface. Then use 3 x 0.1 shim each side.
When close the diff, don't tight the screws too much.
At first the diff feels little bit tight but just run it in, inside the car, same as a ball diff.
Let me know how things are working out,
Thank you,
Jilles
