Default redcat gen 7 diff question

Can an unlocked diff be fitted in the gen7 front housing?? Looking to use for a project build and would like to unlock the front.. If so what would be needed?? Thanks

E10 and Gen7 use the same axle assemblies, so the effort will be the same either way. I'm not aware of a drop in open diff that works with the axles. Most open diffs are designed to work with outdrives.

wasn't sure if a diff like axial ax10 would work or if a diff from a ground pounder would work...

You should be able to use scx10 diff cup and diff gears you will need scx10 shafts aswell should be a easy mod i have scx10 internals in my rear e10 axle works great

I found these on ebay you would still need d a cross pin of some sort but those are the gears theres some gaskets and orings too if you plan on running diff fluid
