Really??? Who? And how do you make them fit? AE diffs?
My reasons:
1) Less maintenance. The ball diffs perform great, but with all the power these days and high grip astro the ball diffs must be rebuilt very often. I race and practise mostly for fun, and I'd like as little maintenance as possible. And time is in short these days
2) Performance. Being lazy, my ball diffs are more often than not crap. So even if a gear diff is only 90% (just an example!) efficient compared to a new built ball diff, I'd still get a lot better diff than my worn ones
But of course, if gear diffs are not to my liking handling wise I'll go back to ball diffs of course!
And I don't believe in gear diffs for 2WD, only 4WD.
