Hot-glue diffs
I am going to lock front and rear with hot-glue.
I was thinking of using stock savage .21 diffs. I have some lying around (2 spiders and plastic cups). This would be lighter than aluminum cups and 4 spiders gears right?
But would it be as strong (bear in mind the cup will be packed with hot-glue). I think the spiders will be fine but will the cup still deform? OR should I just use the aluminum cups and 4 spiders?

RE: Hot-glue diffs
the basic .21's should do fine. I have had my rear end locked with epoxy for a few months now and it has held up great. I wouldn't use the alums. and 4 spiders for locking. i think it would kinda be a waste of them.
