Kalab: I stuck the tip of mine into a vise and straightened the 90 degree bend to about 80 degrees. Allows the handle to clear the gearbox better and helped me to be able to fit it into the diff screw.
I have not had good luck using it on the diff screw but I use it all the time on the servo horn. If you need to make an adjustment after you install a new servo this will sallow you to remove the horn without taking the servo off. I know you can use a regular Allen wrench but you run the risk of stripping it out.
Dang thats a good idea! Might have to do tha for my AE cars with a allen wrench.
This tool is an absolute must. Makes adjusting your diff. So much easier.
Works as good as you would think it should. Made our own for years but they just did not fit like the tlr one does. Spend the extra money and do away with the heart ache. Good tool from losi
Reviewers largely praise the aluminum hex differential wrench for making diff adjustment easier, avoiding the need to remove ball cups, and fitting better than homemade alternatives. One reviewer found it useful for servo horn adjustments. Opinions diverge on fit: one owner said it did not work well on the diff screw and another reported straightening the tip to clear the gearbox. A single one-star review reports the tip breaking off, which the reviewer attributed to a casting problem. Most reviews are five-star and several are brief, so the sample is small.
