Guy's I'am a bit confused about the diff.screw location. Needs it to sit on the leftwheelside or on the rightside?
Looking in the Ansmann manual I can't see it clearly?:(
Thanks:)

It shouldn't matter, as long as the 2 washers and the ball race is on the same side then that is it

It will work either way, however i have read of it somewhere limiting travel or something ??

I always put the nut & spring side the same side as the spur

i always put it on the same side as the diff as a rule of thumb

it doesn't matter really, but i would put it on the side where the motor wire is going, so for instance put the + of the screw on the same side as where the wires go onto the motor, not the pinion side because if you need to adjust the diff then you only have to remove the ball cup at the shock tower end & then swing the wheel, axle, shaft etc out of the way, putting it the opposite side you will have to remove the gear cover or take the wheel off to get one of the ball cups off so you can get access to make adjustments.

Same on the X2c/Monkey, put the screw again on the side of the motor wires otherwise you can't get the ball cup nearest the shock tower off easily if you need to make adjustments because it's behind the motor plate & slipper. On the other side it's a lot easier & more convenient & you don't need to reach for the rest of your tools to pull the car half to bits to get at it.
