upgrade the diffs. The stock ones will hold for abit, but they will eventually fail. I used my stock diffs, and they gave out on me when I needed them the most. I'm using Robinson Racing diffs and there great.

Here you go. [8D]

mgreen I am going to get the diff cases but, I am going use the stock diff gears until they go out. I have not smoked a stock diff yet and I beat the living $%^&* out of my truck and when I go to the Supermaxx I am not going to hold back at all![X(]

Thanks for the link. Will the Robinson Racing diff gears hold up to the P2?

I have not yet gotten anything. I looked at the UE site but, they are to high. I checked out your site but, Stormer Racing has the best prices. I have seen yet. Granted it's not buy much ($2) LOL[8D] $397.95 and $297.95 but, I am not stopping there I have to add the FOC gears CVD'S but, I just can't see spending $300 on the diffs! The stock diff gears hold up just fine.
That's a beautiful kit.... I think I might cry!

Mafia......cash only. unmarked bills. enough said.

Laundering our own checking accounts.... covertly sneaking new parts/supplies/kits into the house.... trying to make the many upgrades unnoticeable... Pretending our Tmaxx's can reproduce overnight....

Isn't this all a normal part of the hobby?

Of course I have NEVER done any of these horrible things w/out my wife knowing.... (in case she reads the forum)

Say the factory recalled the stock parts and gave its loyal customers those, they are much better because Traxxas is sorry.....that should work

Having a big block tmaxx would be cool, but It's so expensive. [] Would Robinson Racing steel tranny gears and a UE FOC hold up to a big block?

Yes, it will! I have the RR tranny gears and stock diffs and it is still going strong! Once I get my kit and everything else it "should" be bullet proof!
