I need to find a way to keep the diffs from leaking out all the oil. They are to hard to get to, to keep changing every couple races...

Did the hot racing diffs look like they are built better than the stock ones?
That is why I bought hot racings hard anodized diffs, but the question is, will they last? Only time will tell.

Oh, thanks a lot Chad!
I'll be adding 3mm clips to limit that travel.
It surprised me because the rear diff (where all the action is supposed to happen) is still like new, and the front one is the one that's severely worn.
Waiting eagerly for the hard anodized results

OK,
I got the DIFF & SERVO out with taking out the minimal screws&washers
as possible, i think.....
I found a replacement for the screw that backed out and looked slightly bent,(post above^)..... My main problem with the servo is the sub trim being way off, do I need to use the servo TOOL that straightens it out again??? I did that like 1st step while building, but it didn't come out right....I have the Battery/ESC/RX for when I am ready to put the servo horn on....
Do i have the correct thinking here, do I need to take anything else out to put the servo& diff back in correctly??????/
ALSO, I am considering using the BLUE ALUMINUM nuts, while rebuilding what i have taken apart?? thoughts?? only nuts/not screws....
I only ran the truck 4x, so i was going to wait alil longer before replacing the nuts.
ANY advice....
THX going to sleep, check back 2morow

i also have the trims off.. on my radio.. i had the servo centered.. and as straight as i could get it.. mounted the arm.. put the car back together.. and when it came time to adjust the trim.. my subtrim was off.. so now my subtrim is way to the right..
I am using KO propo servo and radio as well..
