Gear diff on B44

[ste_lazzaro]

Hi, I was looking around for some gear diff solution for the B44 (.1 or .2).
I found an interesting thread discussing the use of TD21001 and TD31005 (gear diff and diff ring) from the Durango 410.
Are there any more recent solutions available?
I noticed there is need for some hard work to adapt the Durango diff ring..
And why Associated does not seem to care about giving us a gear diff?????

There's a gear diff listed in the B5 manual so we may see one come to the 44.

I run the durango gears in mine as do various others including team drivers.

The parts can be bought from a nice chap on here.

That's a complete different design and has been around for years as it was standard in the b4.1RTR.

As steve said

I've run Ben's conversion for a while now and it's really good.

[Hog]

Thanks - I'll send him a PM

[ben]

Here's the conversion i've been doing. I'm short on the Durango input shafts at the moment so if you send me those i can put them together.

[ste_lazzaro]

Thanks!! Will do!

Hi there Ben, wondering about the gear diff for the B44.1... How much do you charge for the conversion, and can I use my existing diff bearings? Do the gear diffs need shimming like the standard ball diff? I guess what I'm asking is what is the whole procedure in getting the gear diffs from you. Thanks very much

If you send me 2 x Durango 410 input shafts the cost would be £35 + postage for a pair of altered input shafts and 4 x metric bearings needed for the gearbox casings.

You need to also send me a pair of these to alter.

Until this happens, this has been the solution..

[gazhillAE]

Which bearings does it need for the Durango outdrives then??
Associated won't fit does it need to be any different ones?

A sleave is fitted over the durango bearings to alter the external diameter.
