[QUOTE=94eg!;353302]I AM still special!
BTW: Tamiya has been using 3mm diff balls since the days of the Rothmans 959 and Avante. What's all this talk about bigger balls? The avante, vanquish and avante 2001 used geared diffs, not ball diffs, the egress used 3mm diff balls |

Having larger DIFFballs means larger area that have contact with the rings and less pressure is necessary. Much like wider tyres on a car.

Your forgetting the center ball diff that was standard on the Avante, Avante 2001 & Vanquish... |

Well if you want to go that route.........Your so-called Egress ball diffs are actually an Avante hop-up released at the same time as the Avante back in 1988. Therefore the Avante did have front & rear ball diffs (w/ 3mm balls)...

Those are some nice looking balls.. I happen to use Wurks Ceramics, but good info. Nice to see somebody doing something for TRF in the UK, many passionate Tamiya fans live there.
