TLR 22-4 Diffs

[Holeshot]

Does everyone here run the TLR Diff Balls/Rings etc. or they after the rebuild they changed to something else? B-Fast etc.

TLR diff rings (which think are already sanded), Vampire diff balls & thrust balls.

When you do a rebuild you only need to replace the diff plates, the kit diff balls and thrust race will be fine.

I am still on all my original diff parts, not changed the plates yet, just flipped them. and have put quite a lot of time on the car.

I do take it apart and re-grease after every couple of meetings as the grease does seem to get flung out quicker than I am used too. After a quick rebuild the diffs feel pretty good, so I have put off replacing anything.

I have found anything but the Losi diff grease is better than the kit stuff. Many people have mentioned Team Associated is very good for this car but I did recently try Schumacher diff grease because I had some kicking around and so far so good. After about 3 race meetings, the rear is still pretty smooth. When using the Losi stuff, I found I was rebuilding it after every meeting even after breaking it in nicely.

I do think a lot of people are suffering with the rear diffs on this car especially here in the UK with the high bite astro tracks.

That was going to be my next question. The grease/lube. Been a few years since I have owned a buggy with ball diffs and back then I use to use AE.
