you know also there is a thread on scale 4x4 where a i guy made a locker out of his stock tamiya diffs. i keep saying it but a ball diff like in a touring car would the right thing for a truck diff, not only could you crank it down and lock it you can tune the l.s.d action, i know when i was racing this is how you would help out your traction you tightened the front and softend the back and you could get more a fwd car feel and perfomance. so im thinking in a truck it would give you just enough dif action ti slip on hard high traction areas
