Do you have the manual? If not, you can go to TamiyaClub.com and sign up, and download them..

Then look up the part # and hit TamiyaUSA's website!!

I think they are similar to diff that other Tamiya uses, though, so I think it should be easy to get the parts..

Status: offline 		Well, I went to the LHS and he had a set of differential gears for it. He said he use to race staduim blitzers on his track when they came out, so he still has lots of replacement parts for it kicking around. Since I was there I also got a full set of ball bearings for it so now everything has ball bearings in it.

I just got done taking it for a spin, only on 7 cells nimh. I like the control I have with it on that voltage. Not very high speed but insane acceleration.
