Maybe try the Team C geared diffs, maybe best bet.

Speak to Stu Rand as he blew his up at Maritime I think....

Honnestly, the Bmax already runs on the warm side as is. I personally wouldn't want to be running a gear diff in it, especially since the diffs, once well built, run great.

Just my 0.02$

just out of interest what make of diff balls do people run in the standard diffs then my kit ones only stay smooth for a meeting or so then need a rebuild is it worth just upgrading the thrust balls or both...

I ordered carbide diif and thrust balls from ACER racing (there was free international shipping). they are much more durable than the stock ones...

hey mark yeah i took a gear off both crown and pinon at the off road wars after futher inspection i found the centre rib in the 502 gear box fouls the rib on the gear diff unit which ment it wasn't shimned tight enough but i slight dremeling of the gear box rib and its all sorted im waiting for the new gears and away we go.

as for the b max the bearing sizes are differnt 12mm i think and the dog bone on the drive shafts are larger on the bmax im not sure if the will fit.
