I'm not sure if they will fit, but the question is, why would you?

there has not been a problem with the current 201 gearbox cases, and I cannot see a gear diff being used in competition at least, if gear diffs were great why arnt they used on by the team drivers from AE from their rtr b4?

Well i just want to try it out. iknow normal diff always rocks. but now i drived TC with gear diff in my 416. and i didnt find the biggest diffrent between normal diff and geardiff. so i just want to try it out.

Gearbox wont fit as the input is on the wrong side, but the gear diff should fit as they share the same gears.

I use geardiffs in my 511 and they work splendid and since we only race on high grip surfaces, a geardiff in the 201 should, in theory, also work. Something I surely will want to test out the next comming months.

4wd gear diffs = yes
2wd gear diffs = no

people have tested them back to back, and prefer ball diff in 2wd.

Hi Jan, did you use the Spec.R 416 gear diffs in your 511? Thanks.

No, I use custom made 501/511 specific geardiffs made by Pumilio Design in Finland.
