differential

I’ve got a Latrax Teton, upgraded to brushless and worked great for quite awhile after the upgrade, but eventually stripped out one of the 2 stock differentials, which are plastic. I replaced both with OEM 7579X the metal replacement, which as far as I can tell is the only replacement part...

Hi, I have a 4s traxxas max that I have just blown the center differential on. I'm wandering, has anyone tried to "lock" the diff with somthing like JB weld? 😂 if so what was the outcome? Is it a good way to say good bye to the rest of the vehicle? I've found another stock center diff for around...

I have reassembled the truck a handful of times trying to find the problem. The truck makes loud clicking noises and does not always move forward even though the motor spins and the pinion gear is on tight.. Thought maybe before I take it in to a shop I could try asking on this Forum for help...

So I just installed teckno driveshafts in the rear dif. Since then. When I drive and then stop there is a loud click. What might cause this? I assume something locking in place? Also I think I have grinding in the center dif. Might be worn down like many lasernuts. Any help on the loud click on...

Trying to diagnose if my ball diff is barking at me, or if its something else. When jumping my RC10B6.2d I hear a quick little "chirp" when hitting a jump or landing from a jump (quick torque changes), however it does not make any noises when accelerating on level ground or when I do the "pin...

I drove my wltoys 144001 off a skate ramp at my local skate park and the shock tower hit the railing at the back of the ramp and cracked the diff casing. Is there a specific glue I could use or do I have to replace the whole diff case?(it is the front differential). Thanks in advance!

I have had the slash 2wd for 6 years and have never done anything with the diff? Should I do something with it? It is very loose. Should I put a silicone ear plug in? What should I do with the diff? Or do I not need to do anything?

Metal case upgrade

Hi, i'm using my mp9e Evo to build a speed runner. Currently i'm only getting to 120km/h(mamba monster on 6s), because I can't put bigger gears as the motor mount can't be moved further from the center diff. What are the options to solve this? A smaller gear on the diff is also not possible...

Hi everyone, I'm returning to RC after many many years. I won't say how many, lol! A few years ago I built a TC4 FT kit. This is my first touring car, back in the day I had a Team Losi JRX (I think that was the name, I still have it actually). The build went smooth, I put in a brushless...

so i seen alot of people on the you tube put jb weld or silly putty or paper towels or heavy grease or hot glue in their diff to lock it. i know that a locked diff gives you traction to both tires at the same time regardless of load or traction. irl a posi does basically the same thing. rather...

I got one of my savages out last week to test new servos. Its was a 50 degree day here in Nort Deekoter and the snow was a melting and there were large puddles all over the yard. its fun running through puddles of water. I did go upto the muddy driveway and that id where i brake-flipped and...

If you've ever wondered what kind of diff oil to use in your diffs, then here is a useful chart to help you choose what weight thickness you should use your front, center and rear diffs and how thick or thinner oils will effect the RC.

The Traxxas X-Maxx has been built to withstand some brutal punishment, we all know there are plenty of us out there that like to push your truths as far as we can get them. Traxxas has just released X-Maxx Machined Diff Gears to withstand the harshest of treatments. The X-Maxx Machined Diff...

What is the procedure to change the diff oil? I just got me a used tmaxx 2.5

Hey guys new here, just got a hyper 7 earlier this week and I'm looking into the silicone oil for the diff's. But here's my problem, how much fluid goes in the diff's? Is the losi 8ight 5/7/2 kit enough to do it? Or do I need to get larger tubes/ bottles? I've searched all over with no luck. I'm...

hello i have a question, to beggen with i broke my front differential case by crashing to fast on a side walk , so i bought a second one finish installing it n i start driving it ..goes good, i did a very small accident while braking the front Wheel hit the side walk again, the differential...

Old GM video explains in very simple terms why differentials were created and how they work. If you want to skip past the intro part skip to 1:56

I'm not sure what to do on this one......... Ok hear's the situation got the "Ofna Dominator " ten years ago . Did some bashing some drag racing & even took her to the track a couple of time..... My power plant was the "Hyper 21(8port)".......The more comfortable i got with this motor the more...

Hello, I am a bit of a newbie to the nitro RC hobby and I bought a second hand car, I broke it in and am running 20% nitro, works great. BUT...whenever I spin one wheel the opposite wheel doesn't really spin at the same rate, if at all, sometimes it acts confused and doesn't know what to do at...
