Recently I got the Atomic SAS pro suspension and had to get a ball diff that would be compatible. So, I got the Atomic T.A.R. ball diff. It (the diff) came with all sorts of parts (o-rings) and this adjusting "wrench" (piece of bent wire) - which I figured is used to adjust the tension.
My question is if someone could describe how to properly get a ball diff adjusted - I tried looking for an existing thread on this topic but couldn't find one (please point me to one if you know of one). A tutorial or something like that would be sweet.
By the way, that SAS thing ruined my car's drifting abilities! It behaves like a 2 wheel drive with the hard plastic drifting tires (although this may be due to my un-adjusted ball diff?). Anyway, the car seems to do well with rubber tires in regular racing on carpet. Also I noticed that the SAS pro is a bit heavy and made my car's rear end heavier - probably would have been wiser to go with the standard SAS kit, but I couldn't resist the eye candy of the pro kit....
Thanks for any help.
