Sooo, I blew my diff. Which diff. upgrade I should get?

[Bigger the Better]

So is the Elcon one that much better than the one Python carries?

Thanks,

Dave

Can't imagine it is any better.:no: It is in stock though and you would not have to wait. I would think they are both made out of Stainless Steel.

I take it their website is not showing them out of stock? DDM's are back ordered too. Make sure to use the silicone option until it can be purchased and you will be ok.

when you said silicone option, it is the one where you put a bunch of silicone at the front and at the back of the diff sleeve right?

Yup, step 9 and 10 - https://www.largescaleforums.com/fg-modellsport-monster-truck/fg-mt-differential-upgrade/
Just make sure to lube up the diff case so it does not stick and don't turn it until dry. Don't worry you really can't use too much it can be trimmed when dry.

I noticed in steps 9 and 10 you use a white silicone. Is that the kitchen and tub sealant? I use the same white stuff, but it is not silicone. I am wondering if it will stick to the chassis.

Yes, it is the kitchen and tub.:blush:
I would recommend a silicone. Many other sealants like urethanes don't fully cure and can cause the area to be sticky and attract dirt. This is why kitchen and bath must use 100% silicone and its even mold resistant!

does your tube says silicone on it? mine does not, but it is for the kitchen and tub. :lol:
