aluminum diff case #050060 fot MT V3

[carp boyz]

good mornin fellas


got a little question for ya's


I was thinkin about swapping out my plastic diff cases on my MT V3 with the aluminum diff cases # 050060 and was wondering if they are any better than the plastic diffs besides the bling factor and if there's any pros or cons about them


thanks in advance

I had great results with the plastic cases, so I didn't feel the need to upgrade. Though if there were any benefits, they would be reducing flex within the case and the bearings would run cooler, since it's basically a huge heatsink.

If you increase your engine power the area above the bearing will overheat and your box will fail(due to other factors as well like chassis flex, tire type and terrain.)

That's with the XT/XB vehicles. The MT diff case is very durable, even with modified engines.

good to hear,maybe I'll just stick with the plastic for now

on this mt I'll be using the xb/xt shocks,custom shock mounts/towers,baja 5sc wheels and a rear mount Dom fast pipe

no better way to find out than some thorough testing eh lol
