What do the team guys do with regard to building a good diff?

Particularly what they do with the thrust race when rebuilding, I have rebuilt other manufactures diff's and managed to get them very smooth and free but I'm really struggling with Xray's.

I can sand the diff plates easily and get a nice finish...but what else? :cry:

Thanks
Skiddins

Hi Paul

I have been looking through the setup sheets you have and notice that you use the lower inner Quick RC position a lot, especially on the back.

Those positions seem to most commonly be used front and rear on slighlty bumpy tracks over here.
What do you find these give you.

Also notice that you tend to run the front track wider than normal, why?
Was the 2.25 on the inner front pivot blocks for your Vegas setup 'as well as' the +0.75mm at the wheel or 2.25 in total?

Thanks
Skiddins

Thank you very much Paul for fast response. I will be doing some test this weekend at Turkish nationals and I will test what I have learned and try to keep you posted.

Thanks again!

Mustafa
