I'm also unable to comment on the TA05 diffs, they should fit fine but as I run 6.5 I just wanted the durability of the TRF501/511 outdrives, same for the layshaft as I would always run a slipper.

And finally, I've never had cooling problems and have never cut any vents out but that's mainly to stop the rain and mud getting in! I have a standard DB01 chassis and motor mount, so no extra cooling from them either.
cool, thanks for the tips, it seems no one has real problems keeping the motor cool in the db01, thats good news, the big motor mount / heat sink thing that comes with the db01r should mean i wont have a drama, maybe just run a little heat sink i have hanging around.

The ta05 bits i'll research a bit more but if i dont need big cooling, then i can leave the slipper in
