revo madnesss Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) The IRC diff cups will work in the centre diff, but you will have to use different bearings, as the bearings used in the savage diffs have a larger inner diameter (10x16x5mm bering) then the vorza diffs ( 8x16x5mm bearing) This is actually one of the weak links i've found with the savage diffs, as the reduced bearing ball size causes them to prematurely fail. I actually got a friend of mine (Bazokajoe) to lathe down my IRC diff cases to accept the bigger bearing, and also drill and tap a hole to allow the vorza's bigger drive pin to be used as ive had the stock savage ones fail on me too Edited January 13, 2017 by revo madnesss 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
