I've decided I'd like to have a complete spare set of diffs on the shelf, so I'm putting a JennysRC order together since I've got a little OT money to burn. As many of you know, they've got V5 diffs, EXB LSD diffs, and EXB open diffs available.
The little bit of reading I've done on the EXB LSD diffs has been enough to make me decide that I simply don't feel like messing around with the LSD. This seems to negate most of the reason for upgrading an older Kraton to EXB diffs. However... the EXB's beefier ring gear appeals to my desire for durability.
Anyone feel the complete EXB open diff set is worth the $16 "upgrade" cost over the complete V5 diff set? If so, why?
Same question for the center diff - the EXB center diff (which I know is LSD from Jennys) is a $13 "upgrade" cost over the V5 center diff. Is it worth it? If so, why?
V3 Kraton, stock electronics on 4S, guided by a crappy driver on everything from asphalt to grass to hardpack dirt to gravel.
