    Differential reassembly questions

    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...

    Flux differentials shimming

    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.

    Locked differentials?

    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...

    differentials...

    My diffs aren't sounding too good though they appear to be working ok. I'm thinking I need to replace the bearings. I know the rear center drive seems to have a touch of play in it. Thing is, does the diff get diff oil of some various weights or does it get lithium grease. I can't seem to...

    Broke the differential gear on my 3.0

    I broke the rear differential gear for a second time. MMGT 3.0 It seems like this shouldn't happen so easily, are those gears really that weak? I've searched the forum and didn't find anybody else with this issue, but I haven't been around this community very long either, so it's quite...

    Smartech Tornado differential alternative? Please help.

    Been asking around the forums for quite awhile for a good diff replacement for this car. The back diff broke, and I've heard the diffs aren't that great on this car anyways. Does anyone know where to get a good diff replacement I can drop right in?
