Has anybody managed to strip these ?

I've stripped the screws from them but they almost seem to be glued together, and i dont want to force them as they appear to be made from the 'ol fragile pot metal.

I thought they were sealed so you could fill with lubricant, ie oil ect?

Yyea - got a pair myself .. you have a smale ventile in order to get it filled with oil .. so they must be sealed somehow ...

glorydays24, the rc channel axles are supplied with diff locking pins to lock the diffs, similar to the hi-lift.

Problem is, i havent a clue where they go or if i need to split the axle casings to put the pins in and if i do need to split them, they seem pretty much glued together.

The instructions/diagram that comes with them is not exactly self-explanitory (pretty useless).

Guess i'll have to
Was trying to avoid asking as the english in the instructions and on his site is not the best and a mail he sent me was hard to understand.
Still, i suppose his english is a lot better than my taiwanese.
