Default MSLT drive train upgrades

I am looking for upgrades to the drive train, I was on about min 4 of my brand new MSLT and stripped the front diff, more percicly the gear driving the front diff. (is that part of the front diff?) What I am looking for is what is out there that people like, and also that I can grow into when I up-grade to a faster motor(s). If you really want to be nice include part #s and/or links to the products you suggest. Do I need to up-grade the center as well or just the front and rear?

Team Losi's Viscous differentials would be a wise upgrade.

Thanks, I will look at your project.

With the viscous diffs are they just the same as the stock but with metal gears. Don't they make better diffs for the front and rear, the ones I saw on the losi MSLT hop up section looked more like normal Losi diffs (ball diffs)

Where is the best place to order the MIPs, my local store only caries Losi brand parts.

You're better off with the Losi vicious diff's. The stock ones are weak, and the MIP doesn't replace the stock pinion.
