hi all,

well, looks like the stealth diff gear I have is toast and need to buy another one. Is this what I am looking for?http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0095p?FVPROFIL=&FVSEARCH=LX2873&search=Go =

I checked with the World's manual from RC10.com but found the numbers to be different, #6580 vs #LX2873. Can anyone confirm? Thanks. Also, for the slipper modernization, will the following be complete?

LXEAD1 Associated Slipper Spring RC10B4
LXEAC1 Associated Top Shaft RC10B4
LXEAD0 Associated Slipper Hub RC10B4 (need 2 orders of this?)
LX2864 Associated Stealth Idler Shaft & Gear

and lastly for the drive shaft pin - which I am sure to destroy trying to get them out to clean the bearings.

LX2866 Associated Stealth Drive Shaft Roll Pin (6) (says #6375 in the manual. Are these the same?)

if I've forgotten anything please let me know. The aim is to nurse the stealth back to health, add a B4 slipper and get some drive pins. Oh, just remembered, who makes those foamy dust covers that are discontinued again? Thanks. Man this is getting to be so labour of lurve kind of project aka bloody expensive! lol. Thanks.

Yep, those parts are correct. Tower uses their own part numbers, but they do show the manufacturer's stock number as well, and you can search by those numbers, too.

It adds up quick, doesn't it? :wink:
