While looking for replacement parts and prices for my cen diffs, I stumbled upon an upgrade for the pinion in the cen diffs. The stock pinion is a 9t and the part number is MX037. When I searched the website the stock pinion and the upgrade both showed up. The upgraded pinion is an 11t and the part number is MXS37. Here's a link to the upgraded pinion.

I was talking to Bankrupter the other day about switching over to the 11t pinion and he thinks (not 100% sure) that it will get you back closer to the stock Savage diff gear ratio. He told me he was gonna try and figure out the ratio numbers and all that and I told him to just take his time. Then, Freddy PM'ed me the other day with a link to RCuniverse.com with a post from Doesgo (Bruce, former owner of SMF) about how to do all the calculating from CB/SG down to pinion/ring gear, including trans gears. I'm gonna try and figure it all out using his calculating method and post up later. Here's the link that freddy gave me. Post #6.

Anybody who want to chime in on this is more than welcome.
P.S. the stock cen ring gear is a 26t. For those who want to try and figure it out on their own also.
