At this point, if u have blown out the rear diff gears again; I would definitely say give the robinson racing gears a shot because they have some stuff that will almost handle anything......

or you could try spooling your rear diff. I have mine spooled and you lose a little control on road but it helps offroad. Another thought is to try one of the new diffs off of the new tmaxx or revo. Traxxas says they are built stronger! I'm just not sure if they fit into any previous years trucks. Just a thought though!

That depends on what's breaking. And what version Maxx/diffs you have. Like if you've got 4908 diffs and its eating spiders or tearing the screws out of the diff cup then going with Robinson wont help because they either dont make the parts you'd need or it just won't help.

could u put the difs fom the 4908 in a 4909? theres some on ebay and it looks like the easyest way 2 go...same gear ratio?

I've had my RR rear diff in for 4 years and have never had a problem. If you want to go cheaper why don't u just put the Traxxas diff locker in. I've had mine in one of my Tmaxxes and love it. And I think it's only $12.50

Do yourself a favor now and upgrade the diff cups to alluminum ones. I just went through my 5th front diff running 50K weight and only realizing now that the plastic diff cups have been flexing..[:'(] I have the same diffs as you in my revo.

hey nitrovenom, what part of the diff was breaking each time when you had to replace it 5 times?
