I hope so but don't be fooled by the smooth feel of the rings riding on plastic. Hold the outdrives still and try to turn the gear. If it slips and you tighten the diff and it continues to slip........

The car I was setting up originally had a spool up front too which was turned into a diff. That's how I found out about the problem.

For the price I guess it's ok.
