Step 10. Press a 5mm x 8mm bearing (13) into the center area of

the female plastic outdrive/ diff half (15) as indicated. The edge of the
bearing (13) should be flush with the front of the outdrive (15).

!

Step 11. Apply a small amount of clear diff grease (8) to the outer

ring of the outdrive (15). Install the second drive ring(10), again align-
ing the flat sections of the outdrive (15) and the drive ring (10).

Step 12. Place the foam thrust bearing seal (17) over the shoulder

of the diff adjusting screw (16).

!

Step 13. Place one of the 1/8" x 5/16" thrust bearing washers (18)

over the diff screw (16).

!

Step 14. Using the Team Losi Teflon Grease (78), apply a fairly

heavy coat of grease to the thrust washer (18) and position the 5/64"
thrust balls (19) in a circular pattern around the diff screw (16). Apply
another coat of red MIP grease (78) over the thrust balls (19) and
place the second thrust bearing washer (18) over the screw (16),
against the thrust balls (19).

!

Step 15. Insert the diff screw (16) into the female outdrive (15).

Pull the threaded end of the screw (16) until the thrust assembly rests
against the inside of the outdrive (15).

Step 16. Carefully replace the Allen wrench (5) with a pen or

pencil from the male outdrive (7) and place it in the slot of the female
outdrive (15) containing the diff screw (16). The pen will be used to
hold the diff nut carrier (2) assembly in the bottom side.

!

Step 17. Apply a fairly heavy coat of clear grease (8) to the ex-

posed side of the drive/ diff ring (10) on the female outdrive (15).

!

Step 18. While holding the female outdrive (15) with Allen wrench

(5) inserted, carefully assemble it to the male half (7).

!

Step 19. Make sure that the slot in the diff screw (16) is lined up

with the slot in the female half (15) while holding the male half (7)
slowly turn the female outdrive (15) until the threads of the diff screw
(16) engage on the threads of the 4-40 mini nut (1). Remove the pencil
from the male half (7) and thread the two outdrives (7),(15) together
until the screw (16) just starts to snug up.

!

Step 20. Tighten the diff until the pulley (11) cannot be turned

while both of the outdrives (7), (15) are being held firmly. Final diff
adjustment should be made after completion. When tightening the
diff, tighten the screw a little and then "work" the diff a little. Then
tighten the screw a little more and "work" the diff again. Continue
this until the diff doesn't slip. This ensures that the parts in the diff
are properly seated. Refer to tech tips for final adjustment. "Work-
ing" the diff is done by rotating the outdrives in opposite directions.
