Ah i had the same problem. I bought hb diffs and tsais cvds. they would not fit in the cups so i grinded them down. They became considerably weak and i broke the pin with my hand on one. i emailed mike and he told me (after i grownd down one cvd) i could use savage diff cups and they work fine with hb diffs because it is a co company to hpi and there diff construstion is simmilar. This will fix the problem of two small diff cups. Though because i had one growned down shaft and 3 goods, ther was no use in using them so i traded 3 t-bones for 4 sliders, and i am currently using the axel stub mod which works like a charm. I am getting 3.3 mip cvds in about 3 days though

Can you lay out what steps I would need to take to covert to sliders? I can't visualize how sliders connect to the drive cups of a Hotbodies diff. Do I need to go back to stock diffs to use sliders? I need to solve this before Memorial day weekend.

hi there! - 05.20.2007, 10:34 AM

i had the same problem and had to buy some UE cv's the longest ones they had and had to use a small spacer that came w/ the cv's .....if you use the spacer you will not have as many threds to screw your wheels on to, but it still works great w/a little lock tight!!!:025: i didn't know how to use the sliders and besides that the torque twisted my sliders!!!!!

Does anyone know if MIP CVDs will fit into the drive cups that come with the Hot Bodies diffs?
