Well, when I got it, the diffs were pretty bad. I just got some new "pulled from new Hellfire" diffs from eBay, but never checked them...

I guess none of the pics show the bracing front and back for the battery. There's a standoff bolted to the chassis that rests against the front of the pack, and a chassis brace in the back that rests against the back of the pack. There's no movement or wiggle room at all. I do plan on some sticky backed felt to protect the bottom of the pack from the chassis and mount, but it's not going anywhere ;).


They're not so bad. I noticed though that the crown gear was shimmed in such a way as to push it further away from the pinion, and no shims on the pinion gear itself. Strange, since there was too much play already with the shims removed. I moved the shims to the opposite side, and put one on the pinion gear as well. Both diffs are smoother and more solid now. I think they'll do for quite a while.

I'm so happy with the build all together. This thing handles insane. I can't wait to get another run with the components moved around like they are. I REALLY can't wait to run it with a higher quality motor, lol. In the end, I think I would like to do 5s on a MM and Neu combo.

I have a question - why did you put that AL plate under the center diff? Was that to raise the diff up to the height that LSP motor mount put the motor at?

..love this...I will be putting my E-Helly back together soon too...

video? i would like to see this in action:intello:

he used a LSP motor mount and the accompanying LSP front bulkhead, which had mounting holes that didn't line up with the hellfire chassis, so he bolted the LSP parts to the plate, and the plate to the chassis
