Default alloy diff holders??

I was just wondering......

Will the plastic diff holders hold up in a FG MT truck running mainly on road ...I have already replaced dogbones with ball drives,stock diff with alloy diff..

What I am asking is!!!! ...is it worth the money to change it out or just use the stock plastic ones ?????

I have never had problems with the plastic stock one s and i run mainly off round, the allloy ones are a bit exspensive for me at the moment i think they run at £65-£80 for them.

I have never had a failure or a concern with the plastic rear diff holders and I run mine hard in dirt and sand. IMO put your money elsewhere.
