center diff thoughts twin force
 
so, got a question.
those with experience with the twin force. any idea how i could put a center diff in the thing? just thinkin about putting the center diff from a 777 Inferno, or other 1/8th chassis, in this thing.

i realize this thing already has a pretty bullet proof tranny, but uses two motors. i was headed towards the MMM motor combo for it, and so i thought a center diff would be a good idea.

hard part is figuring out how to get the revo shafts on a center diff...

look through this album if you need some ideas...

its a very easy truck to mount a diff on, but your going to need to lower the center plate because of the drive shaft angle, or just mount everything upside down

i love my tf because of how simple it is

This could work, lowering the center to line up the drive train would be wise. The Revo axles are simple to shorten if needed.

I have a center-diffed twinforce, Most here know i got one from Promod. He built, it but i can see he used the lower skid plate (New era chassis, not sure if stocker has a skid plate) to hold the diff setup. I think he used an ofna dominator setup, could be the old LX buggy (51 tooth ofna geared diff) and just fastened a plate to hold the motor. for the revo shafts, thats easy.get these:

you only need the two, Cut the threads off, use the cut end with the pin in the diff with the spider and the revo shaft will fit no probs, except for maybe some cutting for length

Here is my center diffed twinforce and yes i'd recomend it for anyone, especially for short wheelbase

Sorry my pics don't show the diff too well, but you see where it is
