Truggy/buggy diffs are generally very solid since they use 4 spider gears, but everything wears out, especially once you start running some serious power. A center diff helps somewhat as it sends torque to the end with least traction. A slipper would help absorb some of the instaneous power as well.

I am running the same stock diffs in my Revo and are only 2 spider gears. Then again, it's not super powerful (better than Nitro though) compared to others.

Also, setting the ESC's start power a little lower helps too. Sure, it reduces a little of the instant torque, but it's hard to go anywhere when all your tires are spinning anyway. :)
