HPI HEllFIRE DIffs
Has anyone else had problems with thier hellfire stripping out the pinion gears in the diffs? i have had it do it serveral times even after shimming them. SOme help would be great. Any aftermarket diffs being sold that are stronger?

I have heard some bad things about the hellfires diffs A-arms and some other things. I would stock up on these:

RE: HPI HEllFIRE DIffs
I think its because the RTR's do not come with the diffs shimmed properly. Which is the case with most RTR's. THey just throw them together and thats it. i have rebuilt mine with all new components and have them shimmed properly. Well see what they do now. Does anyone know if they make some aftermarket ones for the hellfire?
