Default open rear diff?

I want to open the rear diff on my Yeti for track racing. Unfortunately you cannot just put another front open diff in the rear because it requires c clips on the output shafts. Does anyone know how I can open the rear diff on the Yeti?
Thanks!

Get an SMT diff off of fleaBay and it’ll drop right in.

The rear doesn’t need c clips. I have open diff on the front of my wraith.
I just brought the diff gears and bodged a pin out of an old shock rod.

Come to think of it I don’t remember seeing any c clips inside the plastic that bolts on to the crown gear

Does this mean you cannot fill the diff with oil? You just need to grease it?

I never tried to put diff oil in it. I did pack it with some thick grease I had handy.
