Scott34 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 i've got alloy cases Jordan, and it's not the little bulletproof bevel this time mate, it's the little 1's inside the diff gear, are they called 'spider gears'? nope, my bevel is holding up buddy, got it shimmed now mate, ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan_bench10 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Shimmed up spiders should be ace mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott34 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 yeah, the first 1's i've had to replace. just thought i'd check to see if there was anything out there that i should be aware of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpygramps Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 These are the ones to go for http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-Bevel-Gear-Differential-Conversion-Set-87193-HPI-Savage-Flux-HP-/370789253997?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item5654c3036d, if you've not got 4 bevel gears in there already? I can't remember if the stock Flux comes with them now, it's been a while... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott34 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 yep, they're what are in it Gramps'. straight swap then i reckon Jordan, would you still run stock gearing, 44t spur 20t pinion with big joe tyre's on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpygramps Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Right... Just had a flash of memory from a while back, when I built up some properly BP diffs. There is an alternative, and it's the gears from the Hot Bodies Lightning. They're a bit thicker, and milled rather than cast, so more durable. Part number is HB C8101 Some on ebay here - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HOT-BODIES-LIGHTNING-HPI-TROPHY-/130887121915?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item1e797afbfb Hope that helps!

grumpygramps Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Yep, they replace the gears that are in there and slot straight in Innovative RC do some rather tasty diff cups, gaskets and cross pins, if you really want to go to town!
