From the factory theres a little shim who goes to one side making the crown gear get a tighter fit against the sun gear when remplacing the diffs or servicing them they don't spin smoothly. Were they designe dlike that for their durability and normal operations? Razor rc has bring this up to switch the shim to the other side to make the diff spin more freely. But i think theres might be a reason to this knowing arrma they don't include stuff for nothing.
