If they are team c the out drives will not fit the yokomo drive shafts with out modification neither will the Durango

Blackbird you are being a knob when you have them sorted put a price on them and sell them.

Like i said before , it is not cheap . but it was cheaper than switching brands . So is it worth it ? Just depends how deep your pockets are . I did it because no one else would or could . I will say this they will take a beating of a 4 pole and live , cant say that for the stock diff.

Well day 3 of testing . All I have to say is this is the way Yokomo should had done it in eges . Or gave us a option to use a ball diff or gear diff . 7500 in the front and 5000 in the rear . The car is about .5 seconds faster per lap. It helps that the the diffs are a tad bit heavyer . I had the buggy at work and put it on the scale and it is around 3lb 11 oz. I love it should have done this before .

These cars should have came with gear diffs and aluminum chassis. Most of the high end car like Durango the X ray and the b44 now has gear diff and aluminum chassis options.

Nice gear diff mod Blackbird, all my congrats, but asking for 220 € ... :s

I know somebody ( a person who collaborate with Azarashi for the Green Seal cars ) ...who made the Durango gear diff mod on a B44 ( in 2010 )...he share all possible for the person interesting.

For information : ( when I see that report of 2010...and when I see Associated using that mod today at the warmup in Chico...it lets me thinking )
