Welcome dreadly,
On my Blackfoot I only use the stock 540 or a vintage modified brushed motor.
But I mounted the hop up diff. No matter now.

Hop-Up Diff ??? - Now you have my attention. What is this part?

To be honest I think the best hop-up part is the KBF gearbox Seems pretty bulletproof so far, and I have the stainless one piece spur gear upgrade for the TGX.

When I bought my BF the diff was out and my RC dealer sent me a tamiya reinforced diff. I haven't the item number but I think that you can build one with some different parts. My BF is now running. II have no idea of the differents pieces.

Maybe with the re release brat, you can have a reinforced diff. or with BF extreme and nexts

That looks a LOT like a re-release frog gear set... Very strong though, be interested in part nos.

I bought it a lot of years ago. A long time before the re release mode

Jonny, interesting idea with the ATX power supply, I've been trying to figure that one out for ages! (I just used to use AT supplies, whilst I could still get them)
BUT, what's the terminal NAME for your green wire? - I've got 4x PSUs here & none of them have any green wires. Tell you what, if you could do a sketch showing which terminal on the connector block, that would probably be even better!

Watch Dell PSUs - they've got a nasty habit of coming up with their own idea of how PSU plugs should be wired!

ATX spec is pin 14 "PS_ON" & it should be green
