Ball Diff dex 210 !!!

[eldridge_racing]

Hi guys, having trouble with the ball diff which ive heard everyone has had (put gear diff in straight away when kit was bought) and im no stranger to building a diff as raced TC for 7 years....so far i have spent 5 hours trying to set and build this durango ball diff and everytime it either locks up on the diff outputs and slips on the gear or it just slips regardless when i try n break the diff in....so far i have changed

Circlips
Thrust race
Diff screw/sprin and t-nut

Anyone able to help as really loosing faith as really want to run a ball diff

Cheers

Have you tryed following the ball diff build tips on the Durango site.

http://www.team-durango.com/blog/201...ild-guide-pt1/

They run through how to completely build the diff start to finish.

I havn't really had any issues with my diff. It was built 11 months ago raced at min of once week and I have only ever rebuilt it once and all I did was spin the plates over.

Hi yes I have over and over and watched the videos aswell and still won't work as I get to the point where it all feels right...put it in the car in mm4 config with diff screw on spur gear side and it then just locks up but still spinning on the gear....I'm wondering if there's a defect on both the out drives

when i had one i too had problems with the diff during the build and i was told to replace the circlip which i did and everything was fine afterwards. My car was from the first batch so the problem may have been sorted with newer kits? im sure someone will confirm either way!

i was hoping it was the circlips aswell but ive now put 3 new ones in and still wont work
