Sigh. Redoing diffs, great.

Anything else?

Tekno's customer interaction seems to be very good. The quality is excellent from what I hear. This alone for me is an easy choice for a second truck! Let's see some pics!

I assume the truggy diffs are different than the buggy diffs?

Totally fine to use the old shims. All of our other vehicles use them currently and we're happy with them. We just want to keep improving the products.

The diff internals are identical to all of our other vehicles except for the new shim. The truggy ring and pinion gears are specific to the truggies however.

Ok. Now I'm irritated.

Just redid center diff with provided 6 x 11 internal diff shims and the diff is super tight. Now I get to take it apart again

^^^Be happy man! Your blazing the trail for the new truck. Sometimes you have to reshim the diffs other than what the stock calls for on any kit!

Now hurry up and let's get a track report!
