Default Heavy Duty Diff gears

I believe my son & I have both stripped our front diff gears. Drive shafts spin but front wheels don't turn, but makes clicking/grinding sound.

I thought I saw some where awhile back some HD diff gears, does anyone know the part # and who has the best price?

Thanks

The stock ones usally hold up fine if the are shimmed. They seem to have to much slop in them from the factory. I put 3 shims behind the pinion in the axle and mine never clicked again. I was running a 8 cell pack with a 55 turn motor. Had enough torque to break dogbones with ease.
Ckrc has the replacement stockers. RCP crawlers had the HD's but currently out of stock.

Any idea where I can buy the shims? Would my LHS carry them?

Thanks
