Thanks for all the info guys.

Glazed slipper plates ? How do i know if they are glazed - new one on me that.

As regards setting the diff / slipper I do a very similar thing to the 'Old-Dog'. Only thing is on my associated slipper, i've never knowingly had glazed plates, also the diff doesn't need rebuilding every 3 meetings, more like every 3 years for me !!!

Losi diffs of old were also bullet proof - so what's happened to make these such high maintenance ?

Steve - i've put an associated slipper and pads on, but the associated spur mounting hole is ever so slightly larger than the losi one, so the spur moves around a little - not much.
I assume you haven't had any problems with this ?

Also, I rebuilt the diff - just flipped the diff plates, no new balls at all and it feels lovely and smooth. There seemed to be quite a lot of dirt in there that was making the diff horrible....



Cheers.
Andy
