I read somewhere here that there was someone who planted a Druango Gear diff in the rear of a FS2. I also remember saying Roger M there is no need for a Gear because the ball diff lasts like forever when built properly with ceramic balls and of course if shimmed correct. I would love to try it out though, have just bought the OT-5 Outdrives and put the durango diff in the FS2 when i built it from new. It seems a little narrow for the FS2 gearbox but i think it can be shimmed. For now i decided to first run the FS2 with the normal diff and see how long it lasts with the way i built it.
If i ruin it within a few runs i surely will try this out but i think it could last a while.
Sadly the weather here in Austria doesn´t allow a test drive within the next days...
