differential

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...

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...

So my friend has got an acme warrior buggy (we both know how bad they are but he got it brand new for free) we've been using it and noticed the rear wheel aren't driving and located the problem to the rear diff. We've searched the internet to find one but can only find the housing for this...

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...

I am in the process of cleaning the differentials on my Ofna Ravager and had some questions. Is the paper gasket really that critical? Can I just use grease or some kind of gasket in a tube from an auto parts store? I found replacements, if they are absolutely needed...

Hi all, I'm trying to open up my diffs (Savage X 4.6 RTR (latest version) with metal casing (the ones that came with it). It's my first time trying to open them and I am afraid my strength cannot help me here. I am stripping the screws they all have turned somehow but then it got so hard I...

Does anyone know/have a good video on shimming the diffs on a savage flux? I watched savagejunkies on youtube it, it seems to be the best, but I was wondering if anybody had something better with a person actually talking.

hi guys i have some questions about differentials on a thunder tiger tomahawk ST I bought a parts car ( exact same vehicle ) on my tomahawk ST the centre diff was just a solid 1 way diff IE no gears just a block of plastic in the centre of it, my front and rear differentials used the...

Is there any way to lock the differentials in the tmaxx? I have a feeling it would help going through rough terrain. As I'm sure most of you know (this even applies to 1:1 vehicles.) Differentials always want to put the power to the wheel that has the least traction. For example, I was...

I am waiting on the arrival of my first RC truck, an HPI Savage XL, and in thinking about some mods I would like to do, I came across these Slider CVD shafts on ebay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/200690387768?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649). I am also wanting to upgrade the...
