Has anyone used locktite on the diff screw at the factory setting of compress spring and back out about 1/8-1/4 turn?
Just wondering if that might help. My runner keeps spinning the screw out and I'm not really putting a whole lot of power to it.
I bought new bearings and screw/washers as it was missing some bearings when I decided it was time to rebuild the tranny to find out what was up.
Everything in the diff looked good, just loose screw.

Also, I've never been a huge fan of slipper clutches. Has anyone here locked up their slipper on the stealth for a more "direct drive" feel?

Just kicking some ideas around my head at work.

I'm only running a Trinity Green Machine 2 in it. No brushless or anything.......yet.......

Thanks for any info and/or advise.

The diff adjusting screw is on the right or left side of the tranny? If the screw head is on the left, it should be on the right side... or maybe the locknut is loose/used?

It's on the correct side. I'm wondering if it came loose when the bearings came out. That might have created a little play that could have loosened it up.
