RE: TT01 Diff gear upgrade
Why would you not want a front one-way in an on-road car, it gives the ideal differential effect on both turn in and on corner exit (no diff on turn in, locked on exit). Locked is a different story, it has specific uses. I don't actually know of any products (metal diffs for TT01), I just felt I should point out that one-ways are the way to go for on-road, as long as you are 'grip' driving and not drifting.

No way a Tamiya one way diff is stronger than a Tamiya gear diff.... sorry I had no luck with one in a brushless tl01, but then again I've only tested one.
Ps the diff gears are alloy Stock...
If u want it to be stronger.... Check the gear mesh, some people have had great success shiming there Tamiya diffs?
Or even lookinto sealing the diff and using a think oil to slow the diff operation down.....
3 racing make a good looking ball diff, might be worth looking into
