Default Another Db01- diff question

Hello,

I´ve bought the TRF501x differential joints to improve my db01. What kind of cement / glue should I use between the diff joint and the diff plate to get the best result?

Any other hints / tips in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thx in advance for any help,

Regards G. Edvard

None.

Just a smidge of silicone lube to hold the plate in place while you assemble it.

diff plates should NEVER be glued on 'normal' diff joints. The only exception is the weird standard db01 2 piece setup. I would just use diff grease to mate them together, in my case I use AE diff lube. Its been around for so long and still the best!

The only reason u don't glue is cause under heat the glue can crack n fail

you don't want the plates spinning that would be wrong

grease on the back of them is fine the friction it creates will hold them
in place
