LOSI LST XXL Conversion ideas

No, I'm pretty sure that the XXL diff's have the HD cups in them already, but I know for sure that the older LST diff's don't. In fact, I believe that if the diff's are blue, they have the HD cups in them. If they are silver, they don't. That's if you are buying them on eBay with the shafts and all. XXL Diff's have the black center shafts which are longer than the silver LST2 shafts.

I know for a fact that the blue XXL diff's have HD cups in them, because I took one apart and I was thrown off by the fact that it had those retainer square pieces in them, where my LST diff's didn't. The cups are still plastic though.

So... is this right then?? I'm sure that I'm not confusing my XXL diff w/ my RCM Hybrid Revo diff.

Thanks!

Your confusing yourself trying to find an easy way to see what they have. The ONLY way to know what diff you have in your hand is to take it apart. My original LST had the blue alum cases, and NOT HD diffs. My Muggy also had the blue aluminum cases and NOT HD diffs.

To find out what each model comes with requires looking at the parts list for each model.

ps. You need to send me a pm, 'cause at this point I am not stopping at the post office on the way home tonight....
