i dont get why the hell rc car companies put a freakin center diff in a MONSTER TRUCK... even if it is mini size i mean COME ON!!! its plain STUPID!!! they also need to get it real and do limited slip differentials in ALL RC CARS!!! i made an LSD for my traxxas ruslter.... the difference is night and day... the inside tire doesnt unload n e more and u can acually get a good slide going that can be controled very easily... he he and it was done with one simple washer in the right place... BUT HELL ya... drive the Mini LST for like a week or so... then tear it up... lock out the a arms.... put all ur parts in a big paper bag and shake while saying the magic words....and botta boom botta bing.... a mini crawler |

The diff gears in the LST are prone to breakage if you lock the center diff. Several folk have replaced the stock center diff with the Mini T ball diff and had good results. |

Yeah be careful of blowing up the differentials. I hear the plastic gears weren't made too strong.
