| Locking diff's
No this isn't another "how do I lock the diff's" question. I just bought a Mamba 8000 for my associated 18t, I have had this problem before with mod motors, but the rear diff keeps squeleing and grinding. I have called ae many times and got spacers to tighten them up, but that just won't do the trick with the brushless beast. I was wondering what the disadvantages might be if I locked the rear diff, so it was bulletproof.

I run 7 cells with a Mamba 6800 and use MIP Super Diffs... they hold up and actually work as diffs pretty good... need a little adjustment every 5-10 runs and new balls after 30ish runs... -Jay |

hahaha "use jb weld" obviously you didn't read the post. sorry it is in general, but It wouldn't get answered anywhere else. I added some shims to the diff's and tightened them up a bit, they are runnin good now, but I probably will get the MIP diff's. thanks.
