Hi all

My MT neodym conversion just blowed my diff teeth
See it 'there' (http://rcsaga.com/megaforce)

Do you know a place where I could find stiffer gears

You shouldn't need stronger diff gears, your transmission has a slipper
clutch, set it correctly i.e. not locked solid and it will happen less
often. Set it to give you slip for the first few feet (it will also stop the
truck from popping a wheelie or nosing over) and it will adsorb transmission
shocks and protect your drivetrain. That's what it is there for.

The other thing to help would be to shim the diffs so there is minimal
backlash on the gear teeth.
