Brian, the diffs are buried, that is a downside. Easily 1/2 hour to get to them, which is another reason I am using a spool. I only need to worry about bearings in the rear, and with the spool there's no axial distortion to put side loads on the bearings.
Thye front was just upgraded to the Revo diff, and I did a simple mod, just drilled the 4 existing screw holes in the diff cup and tapped them 4-40, which is only slightly larger than 2mm, but has much more thread depth, and they are the full length of the holes. I am using standard bearing grease in the trans and pumpkins, and the front cup.
The upside is.... everything else is very quickly serviceable. The trans is out in less than 5 mins, and just by pulling the skidplate I can lube or remove the centerdrives.
It is in some ways like working on a 1:1, there is a very specific sequence, and one forgotten item may take an hour to re-install, so I don't do that lol.
