Yea CVD's would be good the diffs are supposed to be superstrong. You should get a stronger BL system to test out the diffs for everyone.

Get MIP CvD's -- strongest out there.
Don't get the visc. diffs if you're planning on running a powerful brushless. It'll eat'em like candy.

I dont think you will have problems with the stock drivetrain and a mamba 5400kv on the stock battery you will be fine. I used to run mine with a mamba 6800kv and 2 cell lipo and stock drivetrain, even plastic diff, and it ran fine.
BTW: it is for sale...

Is the MLST2 worth the money or should I get a different 1/18th Monster?
