Try Toro self propelled lawn mower diff, a mate of mine is using in his 1/4 scale MT build.

rckiwi do you have any pics of one of these diffs? i dont know if im going to make a puller or a mud dragster yet. but i need a diff first.

Hey Costum

The toro gearbox is what I have in ver 2. They need some mods but so far seems reliable. I wish I had more runtime on it before recommending it.

They're not a diff.[] It's just a cast aluminum spool( posi traction). Pulling trucks need a low gear 30:1.[8D]

yea i know i think that im going to use the some design and make a mud dragster. light weight and fast insted of heavy and slow!!! i think i'm also going to use a diff out of a XTM mammoth and make bigger shafts for it. im not having good luck finding a rear end

Hey Costum

Either way you build, a puller or mud drag you are probably better off without a diff, a solid axle would be the best bet for laying down some serious power. Take a look at this puller extremely well built and with a definete purpose. [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_8587425/tm.htm]lots of sweet rigs[/link]

Are you gonna do a solid chassis or have suspension?
