I've checked the clutch to make sure it's aligned which it seems to be, the plates are in the recess.
can you tell me how much the adjuster clutch nut needs to be wound in,can you adjust it until there is no more adjustment left , can the adjuster nut be wound all the way in then backed off until the clutch starts to slip etc.
I have also upgraded the ball bearing in the diff I think the diff is adjusted ok but any advice would be great.
do you need to upgrade the clutch plates?
Thanks

Your motor should not effect this (slipper setting) at all.
What sound is coming from the gearbox?
a. A true slipping sound (like a buzz)
b. A barking sound
With your diff setting (I'd think this could be the problem) the easiest way to confirm it is to fully tighten it (just to the point where the spring bottoms out or finger tight) the back it out 1/8 of a turn.
Try your slipper again after that
