It doesn't look spiral cut. I've seen gp5 gears and gp6 gears. Better machining and better steel.

And now i just found gp4 is spiral cut and gp5 is straight cut. Pictures on sites is not clear.

And teeth sizes are different from gp4 to gp6. One is lighter than the other.

Apparently one is good for speed runs and not good for bashing and vice-versa.

Gp 4 for bashing and off road running. Gp5 or gp6 for speed running. Spiral cut gears not great for on road speed running. If this helps?

Got it. Thanks again.






























(yes I'm easily confused)

Dude, I love you. But if I have to suggest one more time to check out Jenny’s for a concise, accurate description of every diff Arrma ever made…

It depends. Spiral cut gears=off road. Straight cut gears=on road. Proper ratio (GP-5) straight cut gears=speed runs.

And the down side of not taking pain meds just as bad. Chronic pain can corrupt every thought in your head at times. With or with out just sucks at times.my reason for staying off AF when the pain Ramps up. I can't follow a thing and get lost in a post and threads then frustration creeps in and I'm out for the day.

It didn’t say it on that one because it was a Kraton diff. Off-road. Spiral cut. The on road cars take the GP series straight cut. Good luck and god speed.

Oh yea for sure. Every which way you turn, living with pain sucks!
For me, I rather be tardy with pain meds, than be an a-hole in pain. And my wife likes it that way too.
