need help with HPI MT!!!!!!!!!!!
i just got my HPI MT with a blue grove electric conversion up and running. i put my VXL system on it, with a 3s lipo. MAN IS IT FAST! but it was only fast for about 3 minutes, before the rear diff was ground up to dust[
]
mine is the 1st gen HPI MT, is there diffs from the MT2 or a aftermarket company that will be stronger?

RE: need help with HPI MT!!!!!!!!!!!
MT2 diff is a direct drop in replacement
HPI 86336 is the final gear set from the MT2 18SS
HPI 86324 is the finsal gear set from the MT2 G3 (more current)
Either are way stronger than the MT1 version. the 18SS from what I read is stronger than the G3's but either one I've seen people pop k5.9's off of savages into them and they were able to sustain the power
I'm actually resurrecting my E-MT1 with a center differential from the grave (I was ready to sell its parts off) after I saw a post on the electric board

RE: need help with HPI MT!!!!!!!!!!!
The RS4 3 Evo+ diffs are a direct bolt in. These are hardened diffs and they also have a higher ratio...
I use these on my RS4 super rallys which were originally nitro mt1s. I am also running the velineon vxl 3s systems in it with 3s 35c lipos.. They run fast and I have no issues with the diffs. I picked the up from a chop shop on the bay fully assembled and they dropped right in..
