Enhance the performance and reliability of your Traxxas 4×4 RC vehicles with our premium Helical Differential Upgrade Kit. Designed to fit models like the Traxxas Slash, Rustler, and Stampede 4×4, this kit includes front and rear differentials with spiral cut (helical) gears, along with matching pinions.
Advantages of Spiral-Cut (Helical) Gears
Helical gears offer numerous advantages over traditional straight-cut gears:
- Smoother Operation: The angled teeth of helical gears engage more gradually, resulting in quieter and smoother performance, which is especially beneficial in high-speed RC applications.
- Increased Durability: Helical gears have a wider surface area on each tooth, distributing the load more evenly. This design makes them stronger and less likely to break under strain, ensuring long-lasting durability even under intense use.
- Enhanced Efficiency: By reducing sliding friction, helical gears transmit power more efficiently, leading to less heat generation and improved overall drivetrain performance.

⚠️ Please Note: The differentials are pre-filled with grease, but for optimal performance and long-term durability, we recommend opening them up and either topping off the grease or replacing it with your preferred differential oil.
Break-In Period (Highly Recommended):
Once fully installed, it is highly recommended to perform a low-power break-in period. Run the vehicle at half power or on 2S for one to two full battery cycles before stepping up to 3S power. This helps ensure proper seating of internal components and extends the life of the differential.
Important Installation Note:
Depending on your specific setup, proper shimming may be required for correct differential operation. Failing to shim the differential correctly—when needed—can result in excessive wear and potential output gear failure. Always check fitment and adjust as necessary before running.

Had to replace one of the first set due to the shaft snapping at the driveshaft lock-pin. Hopefully was just a fluke, was out of warranty but was given a discount for future products and will use in the future.
