How to LOCK UP the DIFF on a TRAXXAS SLASH 2wd, RUSTLER 2wd, STAMPEDE 2wd and BANDIT 2wd!! 

It works alright…the car does seems to spin out quite a bit though

@@RCKnockout hmm strange maybe I’ll look for different options thanks man

@@itzzgraham you’re welcome

I’ve yet to test mine….hopefully it will perform better 🤞

@@RCKnockout I want to see that run bro.

@@josediaz9483 don’t worry ….I’ll definitely be making a video testing it out

These lockers are no good my rustler has been making the center shaft still rotate.even with righting the screw dwn as far as I can and it stills happens

You were able to put the pins through the holes?

Interesting….How long are we talking? Days? Months?

@@RCKnockout I had it in there for almost a year, I just switched to a locked diff because I kept stripping diff gears. But I'm sure if you had thicker guild it would last even longer

@@keaginm2791 thanks for letting me know…..I appreciate it

@@keaginm2791 bit late but went other way for me, i had 100k and kept blowing the diff, moved to 30k and it lasts longer, prolly cause theres more strain if its distributing the grip

Thanks for the tip! 👍😉

Yeah I’d only put this in a Slash 2wd

This also works for the Bandit, 2WD Rustler and 2WD Stampede.

No you don’t put the gears back in

It would probably lock it up

@@RCKnockout yeah I’ve seen a few other videos after watching this one and people use gorilla glue, some people say to use foam earplugs incase you ever wanna go back to open diff… thanks for the reply

@@TwoSmoker420 no problem

Mine exploded even with jb weld lol

Yeah on the outside of the diff

@@RCKnockout ok but not in the planetaire

@@Smileyjr98 honestly I don’t remember 100%

Thanks! Glad you like it! 😉

I can’t remember tbh

I think the brand is exotek or something like that…..I bought it on EBay

So the flat part of the shaft isn’t flat enough??….I have it all put back together now so we will see if one grub screw will hold…..I’ve heard a lot of people say these are garbage

@@RCKnockout with a little re-engineering anything can work lol i ground the flats deeper so it had no chance of moving but mine had two grub screws. ran my slash on 3S in the grass and bashing on 2S no trouble yet.

@@hessxpress3016 Awesome! Thanks for the tips man! Glad it’s working out for you

I tried that and still didn’t work

It's junk...

Did you leave the planetary gears in there? Or did you take them out and jb weld the entire inside?

@@RCKnockout cleaned all the grease with brake clean and kept the gears in. let it cure for a few days. still went kablamo

@@sh3lbot wow that’s surprising

@@RCKnockout castle creations 3700kv eats lol

@@sh3lbot sounds like it lol

Yeah there are cheaper ways…I could have gone Jb Weld? I’ve tried silicone ear plugs in my Kraton EXB diff when I first had issues with it….but it unfortunately still gave……packed it with some more and it gave again….it doesn’t seem to work 100% at least not in a powerful machine

I’m sure that would work…..or jb weld would work well too

True lol 😂

@@RCKnockout So I did the upgrade to my Slash with the 32 pitch gears from Hot Racing. 18/58. Drives great, plenty of power, but not pulling wheelies. I'm running an older Velineon 3500 2 pole motor with the MambaMax Pro esc. Any advice? Honestly, I'd like to chat with you off of RU-vid if possible. Just getting back into rc cars after being away from the hobby for 10 years.

@@theshyguitarist yeah you might wanna gear it down a bit if you still wanna pull wheelies

No doubt….I haven’t had any issues with the drag slash axles yet

Did it lock it up completely?

@@RCKnockout mmmm I have no idea… it was grinding before cuz some how one of the pins fell out… so I decided to lock it up so it couldn’t grind anymore, but it still seems to grind

@@loose-hotline5026 I think that means it didn’t lock it up completely…..so you didn’t replace the pin in the diff?

@@RCKnockout no lol… I don’t have all my tools or parts since I’m not home… I meant it to be a temporary fix untill I had a new diff or diff pins…

@@loose-hotline5026 I gotcha….does it still get the power to the ground?

Bro ONG when that second voiceover hit I got scared
