Default Stronger diffs?

I just got done running my WK for the 2nd time outside and stripped my diff. Is there a stronger diff out there?

I don't need the whole axle, just the diff inside the axle.

Did you strip the R&P?

HPI has a hard steel R&P.

There are a number of components within a "diff"... There is the ring and pinion and the spider gears inside the plastic cup attached to the ring gear. SO what exactly are you needing?

My axle is locked so I'm guessing R/P, I haven't gotten into it to see yet.

Thanks for the links!

Had the chance to rip into ti tonight, and it was the Pinion that let go, all the teeth are ground down. I think I'll get a stock diff and shim the pinion to get a better mesh, hopefully this won't happen again. I might pick up a 55T lathe motor as well.
