exactly untill all the thrust balls were gone then if you even moved the diff you would have to tighten it lol.
Then i bought a thrust bearing kit. LOL and it seemed to work fine.

Yes it can. It the trust bearing does not have all 8 bearings in it then it will self loosen and the diff will be too loose causing the diff halves to put alot off friction on the diff gear and melt the center out of it.

Yes there are. If you plan on racing I would not put any metal gears in the tranny except the topshaft. For playing, no one makes one yet, but in the future I am sure RRP (Robinson Racing Products) will make a metal diff gear. They dont make one yet. I personally never run metal on metal gears, so reember that too.

Its the same tranny as the RC10GT so you can get metal idler and dif gears for it.
But even if you run a 7 single you wont strip the kit gears, your diff/slipper will come loose or your spur will strip way before the tranny breaks.
The only upgrade id think about is a trinity alluminium front bulkhead. But that might not be necicary (ive not seen one break yet)
