Ian, that's the problem with forums instead of face to face discussion. I, at no point took any offense to any of your comments. They are genuine concerns and they are appreciated...

Also, I noticed there is a mad face on one of my previous posts, I don't know how that got there, so I would just like to clear that up. This is one of those threads that can't be edited.
Anyways, back to your questions, and more importantly comments and experiences with these new spurs...

when is the 51t spur coming?
CT,
I saw that you green lighted the 51T spur in a previous text,
how far away are they?
I always run the 52 Pn 64 pitch gear so a 51 would be interesting to try.
Thanks!

Johnny, the spurs will be made as quickly as possible. I would say it will take no more than 4 weeks, but Marcus can chime in better than me on that one...
As for making a package, I am considering selling them as a differential "kit", obviously dissasembled to keep the price a little lower. I am just waiting on the new Reflex Diff rings to Arrive, they are already being manufactured, by the same company that makes our bearings, so you know they will be top notch. I think the rings are still a couple of weeks away though.

FYI, we are also starting kicking around different ideas for a different diff shaft. The ultimate goal is to use all Reflex exclusive parts for the differential We would never just copy a PN design though. So as long as their diff shaft is better than what we can come up with, that's the shaft we are going to use.

this is what I'm interested in as well. Or maybe a list of what is needed so I can get the correct parts.

A package at little less would be ideal,
especially during these times...
If you don't already have parts to convert
your wallet is in for a world of hurt.
As is, your looking at close to 50 for
just some of the parts of the diff
pictured here excluding the pin
(WTF PN, WTF?), plates, bearing,
e-clip, o-ring, or diff balls...
On the plus side you guys do have free
shipping over 80.
I thought PN's new diff set was expensive...
but WOW!
parts

I know, building a diff with all the parts gets expensive, but I am working on bringing the prices down, I promise.
Among the things I am looking to do is also making a less expensive alternative to the PN Aluminum shaft that is close to the same weight. The QteQ parts are always going to be high, they are made in Japan, so there is no way around it, and unfortunately, the margins are not very good to where I could discount it in the package. I want to shoot for an ultra high end diff in the 50-55 dollar range, I think this will be very achievable once I find a good shaft alternative.
