One issue you might notice...the wider your track gets in relation to your wheelbase, the more twitchy the steering will become. Wider track gives you improved steering, but too much is just as bad as too little. :)

The associated Kit reused the stealth diff, everything but the gear which was swapped for the sprocket. I think the LXT version used the stock losi diff as well, with a different sprocket than the Associated.
