|  Anybody running differentials? (easy or hard to change out)
I know this is a rock crawling board but I wondered if poeple were running diffs in their SCX-10s if you are using it as a trail truck and/or bash truck. How easy is it and how much time does it take to swap out a diff?

Yup, I went with a front diff and it helped the truck turn tighter (a help with the longer wheelbase on the F-650 body). I just took off the axle "C"s, removed the four bolts holding the front and rear axle halves together, pulled out the spool and installed the diff gear set in place of the locker. All up it took well under half an hour.

Hey, you're welcome! I forgot to mention the truck does double duty as a basher/trail rig. Once I need to replace the body, I'll be going back to shorter links for better handling.
