Hi guys, Im after some diff rings and in my instructions there part number - XT008 when you put this in the site it comes up thrust plate and the pic looks like its for the thrust bearig also. Is this right? Im after the 2 big washers that the diff balls sit on.

have they got a flat on the inside to key them into the out drive? because the diff rings definately have.

Becareful not to over torque the diff screw, the rings can snap if you do and you could ruin the diff half as this is threaded, there's no nut in the diff.

Yes ive noticed this! Cheers for advice. Im still a bit lost with how diffs should be set. In TC it was easy, hold one wheel and the spur gear and turn other wheel. wheel should turn a 5 min turn. but i aint got a clue with off rd. Nice and easy with X6 tho just in till its fully tight then back off 1/8th turn

Tighten it up slowly, put a nut driver in eash outdrive and hold them, you should JUST be able to turn the crown gear.

If your at southport on sunday ill show you what i mean :)
