So I thought this is a good excuse to do the diff.
I know a lot of people are running gear diffs and I am considering it. But wanted to know if it is worth spending £14 on ceramic diff balls. I have realised lately that it is not worth upgrading everything on cars. For example upgrading alloy carriers means it breaks something else rather then the original plastic carrier absorbing the damage. So I would be interested if anyone can honestly say they notice the difference between standard diff balls and ceramics. As not everything is worth upgrading and a lot of racers I feel recommend everything rather then honestly considering if that upgrade part is worth the investment
Also, what is carbide in comparision to ceramic and standard.  |
You may have already checked this but I would say something is binding on the left side? Check the bearing on the left side of the diff down to the hub bearings and wheel/nut.
