1) New rear wing mounts as kit ones are rubbish
2) Thicker front shock tower

Possibly....

Time to drop on to Lee's website

I'm not sure about the gear diffs, hopefully Lee is as we all want to see them in action.

On the down side if the diffs are amazing them i'll have to some ordered.

The pic of the Geardiff is not from Lee's car but of the one from Suzukis 511 I guess from the tag on Facebook. Hope Lee will report only good things about it.

And it's nothing special, just the Tamiya 37T gear diff.

I don't think it is the same as the ta05 gear diff, I'm sure Iread someone had tried that in a 511 and it didn't fit, so I think the new one is 511 specific!?

Gear diff is something I am hoping IS a big deal for me, I am totally incapable of setting ball diffs and tend to take a few runs to get them right...I'm hoping gear diff would be more consistent!

It fits, the only question is: will it need metal gears or are the carbon reinforced gears strong enough for 4WD off road.

Part number of the new kit? I've seen the part number for the gear diffs etc.

So will Lee be running a 511 with gear diffs at the euros or the more aggressive 502?

Lee will be getting another order for LMR products

Part number 42213 is for the kit not the geared diff
