Re: 53908 Tamiya Frog Assembly Universal Drive Shaft.

Hi
I am going to purchase a MIP diff kit for my 2005 Frog Re-release #58354. Does the above "universal drive shaft kit" come in the kit, so no need to purchase this part when fitting the MIP?
Thank you

The ReRe Frog comes with dog bones and cups, not the universal.

You will have to buy that separately.

Thanks for reply. I wondered if it was the same part but obviously not. Still new to all this. So why does the MIP not work without the Universal Drive Shaft?

Thanks in advance.

If the Frog has an improved set up than the 80s original is there any need to use the MIP? I was going to upgrade the moter to a Sport Tuned or Super Stock.

The original hex drive shafts have been replaced with dog bones. However, the transmission (the source of the problem) is still the same.
