MIP Monster Beetle Super Ball Diff kit

Available now for pre-order is MIP’s Super Ball Diff kit for the Tamiya Monster Beetle and all other Tamiya vehicles that make use of the iconic “Frog”-style transmission. It is a direct bolt-on kit, with no modifications needed for both the 2015 Monster Beetle and 2016 Blackfoot trucks. It was designed to work with Tamiya’s brand-new universal pin drive axle, giving the option of installing brushless motors without fear of destroying the stock gear differential or extremely expensive vintage ball differential. The ability to add different grease viscosities for tuning and no fear of slipping will bring the Blackfoot into the 21st Century without losing that old-school 1980’s feel. The kit is available for pre-order now and it will go into productions once a total of 250 pre-purchases are reached. More information on the process can be found here.
