When I opened up my diff the pin that holds 1 of the 2 big gears in the diff snapped into 3 pieces when my diff cup snapped. Where can I get another pin. The dogbones pins won't fit. Don't need to buy a whole new diff gear set just just for the pin

Your local Fastenal has or can get the pins for you, I forget the size though.

You can measure a good one and get it from your local hardware store.

You could also get them from here. http://www.mcmaster.com/#Pins

So I ordered 50031 diff cups and I went on rc pit stops site and realized the diff cups I need for the DR is 54023!!1 I figured it was the same as the mt! I guess I need to double check. anyways whats the difference in the diff cups ? and i guess I will be making an rc pitstop order on fri

There's no obvious difference. The DR uses the same case and internal components as the MT. Check out the MT's diff cup and see if you spot any differences. I'd be curious to know, as well.

I will let you know hiw it gies when diff cups come in. Waiting on diff cups and bearing kit. Once that gets here i will strip completely and redo bearings. Gives me a chance to change diff grease to diff oil. And instal belt drive along with new gear plate. I wanna buy the 7075 plate for ny mt now and try that but gotta sell some nitros now
