xb rear diff. distruction

[cordy]

Here is a picture of my rear diff.case. I was running in a flat field, did some donuts,top end runs. Getting ready for the track with Lightforce and the boy`s. So my track appearance will be delayed.

Dang that SUX !! Did the Diff explode and bust it ???

 

[cordy]

I really don't know. I was driving and it just quit moving. There was a lot of oil on the pan. Boy I hate tearing it down.

 

[LightForce]

That was with jetpro pipe?


How long were you running at top speeds?


Did the bearing over heat and melted the plastic enclosure or just explode?


It`s weird did not happen to me with the abuse XB took for the last month.

More pics please........

 

[cordy]

I was using the stock pipe with holes drilled through it. Melted my body,but shit did it fly! I will take more pic`s. when I get over it and tear it down.So the Green honet stung himself!

Wow, I cant believe you didnt rape some gears! They look to be in really good shape.

 

[cordy]

Well I think what saved me was when it blew,I lost the 11t diff. gear ,drive cup,and the two bearings. I bet if the gear case did not explode thier would have been as you said gear rape! Perhaps it`s best to tone it down a little with these xb`s and xbe`s. Imagine haveing buggy`s that are to fast! ha ha.

llolll the beauty of heat ...it think

 

[LightForce]

Looks like bearing overheated and failed then the case melt down to the point it threw the pinion and cup out .


I think V2 needs all bearings to be bigger .
