im taking a guess the diffs you will be using are the team c diffs as you claim to run a team c car in the other thread.
have you run these diffs yet what are you doing about the drive shafts.
post some pics up so we can see what you claim you have done.

looking at the out-drives they just don't seem big enough for the drive-shafts do u need to file them down to fit....
discostu
01-05-2013, 02:20 PM
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.

Yeah they are team c the input shaft is also team c so you would need the drive shafts as well
Not cheap to convert.
team c metals gears arnt great either.
blackbird
01-05-2013, 03:23 PM
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.

More testing tomorrow at the track with the gear diffs in the buggy. If all goes well I will sell the complete conversion to make it a gear diff.. .........If any one is intrested in the complete conversion e mail me at 1999blackbird.cec@gmail.com

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 .

Gear diffs in these cars are bad ass. With that said , I had said a month or so ago that I was working on a aluminum chassis . Well its allmost done . Just need to drill holes and do some tweaken on it . If intrested pm me your email and I will send pic over to u .

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 )
