MIP TLR 22 4.0 Bi-Metal Super Diff 13.5 drive kit

MIP’s recently introduced Bi-Metal Super Diff kit for the TLR 22 4.0 is now also available as 13.5 drive kit including bi-metal driveshaft bones. Offering a 35 percent lower rotational mass than the standard diff and dog bones, the kit comes in handy especially for Super Stock and Stock racing as the lowered weight makes for increased acceleration and less motor fatigue while offering pin drive binding characteristics. Included in the kit are bi-metal outdrives and bones, heat treated outdrives, carbide diff ball, ground diff rings, an aluminium T-nut and a captured thrust race assembly. Not included are wheel axles and the diff gear.

Designed to improve overall drivetrain efficiency the set will be beneficial for both stock and modified racing classes as with the 40T pulleys the car will gain balance and overall efficiency compared to the standard 34T pulleys. Traction is increased while the higher corner speed and smoother throttle response will lead to lowered and more consistent lap times. The set includes a 40T front pulley, 40T gear differential, carbon fibre shock towers as well as bulkhead spacers and new longer belts. Separately available are also the updated front and rear shock towers, the 1mm bulkhead spacers and the C bulkhead all of which are specially designed to fit the 40T belt pulleys.
