XRAY - Model racing cars

Hello!

I'm new to XRAY, having bought a used T3R a few weeks ago. I ordered a couple of upgrades, namely gear differential and CV driveshafts from Spec-R, but I have troubles fitting them into the car:

The diff: when I measured it, it is wider than the ball diff originally on the car. By wider I mean the "notches" in the output shafts are not deep enough and I can't assble the diff with the drive shafts in it (it won't go). I guess I should have used a special shorter variant of the driveshats? Does anyone have experience with that?

The CV driveshafts from Spec-R also don't fit the car. I actually can't mount the C-hub, because the part of the driveshaft is touching the C-hub and preventing it to moving into its place so that it could be mounted.

I bought the spec-r stuff especially for XRAY T3 (I was told this is compatible with T3R), so I am wondering with might have gone wrong?

Is T3R not compatible, or did I order the wrong Spec-R parts?

Thanks,
Miha.

For a perfect fit the spec-r diff should be used with the 50mm driveshafts. You can make the original 52mm ones fit by cutting the blades a bit and adding the 0,4mm shim.

Just to mention it, the xray geardiff is much better then the spec-r one


Don't know about the spec-r driveshafts, but i do think the T3 has a different c-hub from the T3R. That said, the c-hub's from the T3 will be a direct fit for your car.

Cut tha back side of the blade (aka plastic cap, part: 305241) to allow the driveshaft to go as far in to the outdrive as posible. Then add a 0.4mm shim to the lower suspension block, I added the shim all the way around the car to keep everything equal.

Don't remember how wide it was doing it like this, but we have the 190mm limit here also and it was never a issue.
