They are different... the nut is actually molded into the plastic housing, so it cant turn in its housing.

Another thing to try is when you get your new nut and screw, hold the nut with some pliers and run the screw through it a couple of times to free the nut off slightly. that way when it goes in the car it wont be as tight and try to turn in the housing.

Ok ill ive those things ago.

If that doesnt work which would you suggest getting the ally nut holder of the b4 one ? the b4 one is cheaper but the ally one meens you can change the nuts when they eventually let go.

Up to you really mate. I have a load of AE spares so it makes sense for me to use the AE ones but If you haven't got any of either it may be best for you to stick with losi, then your not mixing and matching brands.

Not had a problem with my Diff at all, but then i did take my time assembling it. I placed the Nut into the holder, then put a small drop of CA glue on it, this was very thin and therefore wicked it's way around and down, thus holding the nut firm.
Maybe try that, worked for me.
