I would try to find a set of CVD's for the locked diff, 2 sets if both diffs are going to be locked. Here's a link to Tower's ad. They're discontinued through them, but just to give you a visual. http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXETM2&P=7 If you put an extra washer on the ball diff tension bolt, you can almost lock it down without JB Weld. It'll act like a really tight limited slip. |

There's a shoulder bolt that holds the ball diff assembly together. If you put a flat washer on the bolt before you screw it into diff, it stops the shoulder bolt from bottoming out. Which allows you to tighten it up and slow the diff action down, by putting more pressure on the balls. :-P | |
