Typhon Typhon center diff cup replacement

I haven't had my diffs apart since I put mugen shims in them, but when I installed them, they felt a lot "harder" than the arrma shims, which is why I took out all the arrma shims and used the mugen ones only inside the cups. Just felt like a higher temper metal.

Well I broke down and ordered the Mugen E0206 diff was her sets X2, one for the Kraton and one for the typhon. Will cost between $18-20 cdn a set, a little cheaper than the $30 but still expensive for washers,lol. Also ordered the stock shims to have on hand if needed.

I’d take a hooker and some booze right about now?

Yep,crazy expensive. I’m thinking I might need to reconsider my daily rate to keep going with this hobby. I’m starting to understand my wife’s confusion over the amount of money I spend on “toy cars” (her words not mine)

On my first take I added the 1 mugen shims to each of the small gears and a 1 mugen shim behind the big gear inside the diff cup, assembled with gasket and it had some resistance but I could feel the gears clicking together. Second take, kept it the same as first take but added a 1 mugen shim behind the spur gear and assembled with gasket..had slightly more resistance than the first take and could feel the gears clicking..3rd take I removed the shims behind the spur gear and big gear inside the diff cup, assembled with gasket and couldn’t feel the gears clicking, resistance was slightly less than first take but felt the smoothest of all three takes.. never done this before so it’s hard to know which one is the best....I think I’d go with my last try. What do you guys think?
