Default Diff issues

I have some major diff problems and need to know the best way to get in touch with Kyosho to order new ones. I just need their e-mail address or phone number. Or if somone has some Twin Force diffs complete that they would be willing to get rid of just pm me. Thanks in advance!

ThanX,
Krystopher

I need the diff housing with spider gears, drive cups, and the bearings.

Need diff for kyosho mad/twin force. I think it's the hellfire that fits. That's what I got in mine. I would be interested in what you are doing with the hex/stub issue. I'll be keeping an eye on you as well as finding out about turning those savages down.

Would you know where I can get the Hellfire diff? Is it completely compatable with a Twin? Such as bearings, drive cups, and the housing?


ThanX,

Most 1/8th scale buggy diffs fit. Tower is a HPI dealer, Hot Boddies, and Ofna also work. I have some that work listed in the Mods Sticky. You could upgrade to 4 spider set up for more strength. Most of the buggy diffs are steel gears instead of pot metal like the Twin's. I don't have any complete diffs but I do have spiders, sides, and housings. I use the drives. If your interested let me no. PM

What is the width of the Kyosho and Hellfire diff at the outside of the bearing

You'll need to shim it to keep the ring gear in proper contact with the pinion.

I know that but it seems like 2.5-3mm ??
If I push it all the way over to one side the pinion don't have any contact with the ring gear
I think t
hat is too much

Wow that isn't right. My diffs are 34.53mm to the outsides of the outer bearing races. That's fully assembled.

Get a kyosho diff case. Most probably that will solve your problem.
