In this video I'll be talking and showing you how I build my 1:10 Ball Diff's for my cars. I'll be going through some Speed secrets for the Thrust and what Greases I use. I'll also be going through how often I replace the diff towards the end of the video.

Quality breakdown video - currently rebuilding a SC6.1 diff for outdoor dirt tracks...You mentioned stock diff balls for your race program- are the stock diff balls steel, ceramic or tungsten carbide material? Any preference given the track conditions? Thanks

@bucknertarsney7674 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Spencer, great videos I really enjoy watching them. One question that I do have is do you put grease on the gear faces? The associated manual shows greasing the gears but I’m not sure if that something that you do? Thank you.

@craigjones2854 4 жыл бұрын

Not bad. But I go a step further Spencer. Stuff I figured out. I use calipers and check each ball. To get a perfect match. Then I polish the diff rings my self for smoothness. For grease I use a Teflon grease my dad used at Delta air lines. Its engineered for jet engines. My diffs will feel perfectly smooth for weeks to months.

Man I have not raced or been into R/C for quite a while but starting to get interested again. Back in the day building the stock thrust assembly that had you putting tiny individual steel balls in-between two flat washers was not fun.

@aaroncavanaugh8241 7 ай бұрын

Would u use ceramic balls in the diff gear or not? And what other types of grease will work for the thrust part? I don't have a regular/conventional black grease but I do have clear (stealth) grease, red grease (valvoline/chrysler premium and lucas red), black graphite grease (hudy), white gear grease (protek friction fighter), and blue grease (progek premium blue o ring)

Everytime i build my diff it feels crunchy to me. Is it supposed to be smooth like a gear diff with no friction at all? Mine are not. I have used ae balls and schelle balls. Same outcome.

@TTMOTO888 4 жыл бұрын

Might be you've over tightened the screw? You can try backing it off 1/8th turn until its smooth

@jeffbryner5355 4 жыл бұрын

@@TTMOTO888 i do it like the ae manual says. All the way down then back it a 1/8 off. Its crunchy at that point. If i loosen it to where its not it will bark under power once installed in the tranny. I have also tried breaking it in by turning the throttle up in the radio just to get it to move and stick a screw driver in the outdrive and let oneside spin at a time for a few minutes a side but still crunchy. Nothing smooth like a gear diff. It feel almost like u would have a bad ball bearing

@TTMOTO888 4 жыл бұрын

@@jeffbryner5355 - I've done it the same way in the past. Crunchy diff is all I get. You might like to try the Losi way. Theres a video on how they do it, just tightening it enough so as not to slip then break in the diff on the table then retighten as needed

@NebraskaDownHiller 4 жыл бұрын

Don’t tight the diff all the way down, that is probably flat spotting the ring or balls. Break it in first before final tension adjustments. Watch some videos on the process.

@KTMcaptain 3 жыл бұрын

So nothing prevents this diff from just spinning inside the outputs outside of friction on the balls? Why balls instead of roller bearings? Why not have spider gears between the outputs so you can run the diff looser without worrying about it not transferring enough torque.
