This was so helpful for setting up my ball diff for the first time coming from a gear diff. Especially all the detail about how tight to make it. Thanks!

You should make a video on your current rc10 setup.

Breaking in the diff will be beneficial. When I used to race, (B3), I never did that process, I just set the diff as per the manual. I did keep track of the way the diff felt, I would do a rebuild as soon as I started getting any barking.
If it was smooth then I was happy, but I know more now than I knew back then. I'm looking forward to racing again.
The cars have developed alot since the RC10 B3. The B44 had just been released about the time I was about to stop, but I wanted a B44. I raced stock 27 turn and mod here and there.
I also did some inroad racing with a TC4.
I plan on getting a 4 wheel for 17.5 class. But the 6.2 also looks really good. It would be even more fun If I had one of each, then I could race spec and mod.
Good luck racing!

Great video Spencer. Where do you get that L wrench?

[mikeblythe]

Way to build your brand, Spencer. And thanks for the help trying to get Pauls RTR going a couple weekeds ago.

Tell me about the haircut thing🙄 Anyways Spencer, I just got done building the rc8t3.1e. I have the rc8b3e so I'm pretty familiar with the platform. However I'm getting a clanging sound from the front center outdrive. Is it because the dogbone pins are new, or is the diff binding? Cause she feels free & smooth, gonna break down the diffs again today anyways to see how's she wearing in. Thanks for your insight snd videos. It's a good time to do all that wrenching we've been putting off😂👍

Hi Spencer, what's the tool you are using for tightening the diff?

[jerryboics]

Just got my 1st buggy and I'd never seen a slipper or a ball diff. The b6.2 manual has very limited information on it too and also doesn't mention how crucial it is to set up 1st without doing damage. I got it set up correctly from that info but I barked it a lot more than once getting it there....

[laynelommen]

Why do you grease the back side of the big rings? I didn't think they spin. I figure grease would just build more heat.? Let me know at your convenience. Thx for the video.

[cwalton]

If you are using direct drive what's the best way to check if the diff is tight enough?

[trevorfurlotte]

Hey Spencer. How far out is the diff screw at the start?

[LyroLife]

Why not disconnect the pion from the spur gear for best diff ball resistence testing
