Interesting history rhylsadar. Never would have thought to turn down the diff shafts . . . I like it!

The only problem with the existing savage flux diff offerings is the stupid 10x16 bearing. The ultimate diff would be the bullet proof ring gear combined with an aluminum cup that has a steel endcap that accepts the 8x16 bearing. All they have to do is copy the CEN diff case idea. Why on earth hasn't someone started mass produceing a product like this? It would sell!!!

BTW, I don't think an all aluminum cup turned down to accept the 8x16 would work any better than what we have now because the thin wall would quickly give in to stress fracture.

I think the Hot Bodies or Kyosho plastic diff case with steel ring is better than the aluminum junk we have to settle for, but I know they can do better. Just blows my mind that they haven't yet.
