Got the FG Alloy Diff Housing today from LargeScaleRC!!!!! He sent it out on Friday and it arrived today!
Followed your instructions, everything went together quickly except for that damn diff tube. That thing was a bear to push on there.
I also applied the silicone to the front and back of the diff after lubing the diff tube in grease. After it dries overnight, I should be able to get everything back together tomorrow night.
I also noticed that one of my dogbones wasn't fitting very well in one of the diff outdrives. I pulled out the outdrive, messed around with it and couldn't figure out why it was binding. I ended up switching with the other side. No binds on either side after I did that. I'm beginning to wonder if that bind is what caused my plastic diff to break off at the outdrive.
Oh well, it is almost back together.
I know for a fact my next big scale is going to be the HPI Baja. I am about at the end of my rope with this thing. I've had it since April and have run it 4 times.
