I ran the same front/rear diffs the WHOLE time when I had that truck, and even I got that truck used... It did handle well, but seeing as I never set up the suspension at all (and admittedly never changed the shock oil), it could have done better. The "slipperential" has a ratio of 2.2:1 (44t spur, 20t pinion, unless linc changed it).

With 100k oil, a wing (black Hellfire wing + Tekno wing mount), and extended wheelbase arms it could easily wheelie and sometimes flip over, but the front tires still got HUGE.

With another Revo in my possession that is still nitro, I have contemplated various conversion methods. There's the "slipperential" (I quote it because that word belongs to Mike IMO), center diff only, stock tranny (a route I would never take), direct-drive to diff outrunner, and this new dual-outrunner electronic diff idea I have thought of.

How about a center diff with an outrunner with a pinion directly driving the diff, kind of like a truggy? On 5s an 800kv outrunner would do, with 20/46 gearing. Just an idea, I may try it out if i have enough parts to do it.
