I'm on like my 3rd rear diff, the housing keeps breaking around the input bearing.


Or the diff cup will snap...it's just the stock motor, 990, and rear jet pro.


I don't think I bash THAT hard, to always be breaking the same part.


Chassis flex? Diff housing's weak?


Guess I need a allum housing?

Yes. Aluminum housing. 7075rc has them. Theyre bullet proof

I'm on my third diff housing on the front, of course it's due to my excellent driving. Are those available for the MT also?
 
If you do not wish to put out the cash for the well crafted diff housing, try better bearings first. My first diff case fail was actually due to the horrible bearings failing and melting through the case.
 
I have gone through about 9 rear housings and and many brands of bearings ...bottom line is the 19-10-5 is way to small and the plastic is poop to boot..I am in the same boat as you with the rear diff.
 
the amount of money and work that you will put in changing the bearings and replacing the rear diff will be far more than the amount of the 7075rc diff housing.

no matter how much I push they never fail, also, note that 7075 T6 is Aircraft Aluminum
