Hey Guys,
I'm wondering if there is anybody that makes a mini spool or full spool for the open wheeler soarer diffs? I'm looking at converting one of the cars into more of a drag car than a streeter and I would like to lock the diff instead of running an LSD.
I know I could weld the diff etc - but i dont trust the 2 pinion assembly to hold up!

Secondly, if I was to make my own spools - would anybody be interested in one at group buy prices?
A minispool would be cheaper, but a full spool would be much stronger as it removes the cast iron carrier all together and removes the pinion gears.
Depending on CNC prices, the cost for a mini spool would be around $200-300 a full spool 450-700. I'm trying to source some in the states, but I dont think they are even made!
