Troubleshooting

Ensure the differential is properly greased and the pinion gear is correctly meshed with the differential housing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the FTX Havok Complete Cast Metal Differential, first remove the rear or front gearbox housing depending on the target location. Ensure the bevel and pinion gears are clean of debris before inserting the new unit. It is highly recommended to apply a high-quality grease to the internal gears during installation to ensure smooth operation and reduce noise. Compatibility is limited strictly to the FTX Havok platform using standard FTX10690 specs. For maintenance, check the unit every 5-10 runs for signs of gear wear and re-grease as necessary to keep the metal surfaces protected.
