On the first few runs I had with mine, I found the rear kicked out exiting corners (was starting to think I should've built it rear motored), but after backing the diff off a very small amount, it was much, much better, I put it down to after 19 months of gear diffs in a Durango, I'd forgoten how subtle you need to be with a ball diff

I agree but I would have backed off the slipper rather than the diff... afterall thats what its there for... you want the diff tight without slip or else you'll knacker your diff balls, plates and thrust race faster than you can rebuild them!!!

Had already backed off the slipper without it stopping the back coming round, the diff isn't slipping now, just it was a touch too tight before.

the diff was designed with 14 balls to allow it to be run looser without slipping and therefore giving a more aggresive turn in
