Why don't you just buy the diff kit? it is only 20.99 from Hostile hobbies....then there is no hassle... This put it together and drop it in[)]

it is pretty simple to job too do....

cheers guys

yes that is the kit im getting but it doesnt come with all the bevel gears (internels)!

the reason im asking is because i see that there is one set of replacment bevel gears for the 5b and another set for the ss??

cheers

are you talking about the Viscus washer???? this is a diff upgrade for the stock plastic diff

you only have to exchange the stock vicsus washers (pictured below ouside left and right) and the stock diff seal/gasket.....the rest of the parts come from your stock diff

If he buys that kit.. he only has too swap of the bevel gears....Then why you @ it you might as well put in those missing bearings....and you can buy a complete ABEC5 bearing kit for your BAJA from 5thscale racing.com for only 40.00 shipped:D:D
