I actually didn't see anything getting cleared up.

Did you read the product details for the item?

The details page states:
"The unit is a "drop in" upgrade for Mugen, Losi, AE, XRay and similarly sized diff compartments on buggies and truggies. The aforementioned diffs are among the smallest on the market today, so the Slipperential can be shimmed into larger openings on many other vehicles."

Hopefully that clears things a bit

We tried several versions, including at least 3 designs with a plastic spur - they couldn't take the heat long term. They held up fine for a 5 or 6 minute run, but with a lot of slip dialed in, the heat softened the plastic and it became fairly easy to strip. A plastic spur would likely work for most, but we tested in extreme slip conditions to ensure durability and reliability. We wanted it to be as user friendly and problem free as possible when released.

Sweet!

I'm trying to find an excuse to buy one right now lol! I currently don't run a vehicle with a full sized center diff so I can't really justify buying one but I'm "this" close from buying one just to have it sit on my shelf so I can marvel at it and eventually put it in something!

I am in the same boat. No 8th scale right now so kinda hard to justify buying it,but I know I will end up with one sooner or later.
