Typhon Diff question

[GaryC]

So I took apart the stock diff on the typhon and just swapped all the guts from the stock one to the new hot racing one...(first time doing this so don't judge lol) but can someone tell me if this is correct?

(Also the only diff lube I have on hand is traxxas lube...10k, 30k and 50k...is that ok to use and if so which one?) If not which lube should I buy?

Thanks

Looks like you're missing some axles in the (bottom photo) small gears at 2 and 8 on the clock face - seem to be in the old diff case lid in the top photo. Can't remember where those spacers go but some v good youtube video on this. My fave:

It's correct but the last two pins would help...... Diff fluid is preference.. the only right answer is the one you like.. 10k is factory..

I have the same question my different is clunking in the Kratons rear and I want to get a new on but should I get an aluminium one?

That was all the guts out of the stock one...and I put it in exactly how I saw it in the stock one

Which pins and where do they go?

Thanks man

Also it came with spacers but idk where those go either

And so 30 would be good so I doesn't like lock up with the 50k?

Pins go through the bores of the gears.. spacers under two of the spiders..it's identical to the factory assembly.. 2 spiders are set up, 2 spiders set down.. just look at the factory setup.. it's the same..

Watch the vid. I think those spacers are in the wrong end. Watch the vid. Watch the vid!

 

[GaryC]

So spacers under those two gears then pins through them?

Good? Lol

I did

 

[Grimbles]

Perspective makes it look off but this looks about right provided that bottom left is as low as the gear opposite it

 

[Camaroboy383]

Good? Lol

I did

Still incorrect.. all 4 pins should stick up the same amount.. you can see the pin reveal depth in the ring gear bores.. all 4 pins engage into the ring gear bores

Ya I fixed it...I think

As far as the thread locker do I put it on the screws and immediately screw them in?

Looks better. I thought It was just perspective in the last one!

Pretty sure it's good

Perfect..... Little drop of loctite on each screw.. put them in and let it sit 24hrs..
