HPI diff case part# A431is there any type of metal replacements?

only thing left on my axles that are plastic and since I went with a custom hardend gear set it's kinda silly to me to have the diff case in plastic with plastic threads.

when these are done they may be the next weak point so a metal replacement would be cool even if it is for another rc I am all ears on these at the moment.

I haven't seen one did you check eBay?

I am hunting for some

these look somewhat promising

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-FLUX-ALLOY-CUP-BULLETPROOF-DIFF-CASE-DIFFERENTIAL-HPI-SAVAGE-XL-86827-/110823257152?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item19cd94b440

while I was looking at those I came across these also and am checking the size specs like the bearing's and shaft width's.

I mean if the larger gear off the savage works and fits the stock wk stuff this looks close to the same size or I am hoping.

not sure if stock cases would clear the larger drive shaft's off the diff on both side's but these integy case's should have plenty of room.

I am going to put mine together with what I have now but may have to get creative and mad scientist up some even more hd upgrades down the road if possible.

those two came to mind first I guess lol.

savage is prob to large
look around for axial stuff, same size and hole pattern as the WK
